Hey if you still check here, I can't seem to find any of the speech bubble podcasts before episode 13. The first two I listened to were great and insightful but I hadn't found the time to listen to the ten after. In other news, all three (Amber, Neon, and you) of you are creating extremely cool comics!
Hey y'all! Close to a month later but I am done with chapter 1 of Fyrearm! It's all on the new Tumblr site I've been slowly building over time. It has plenty of links and its own comment section, so if you want you can go read it start to finish here: https://fyrearm.tumblr.com/
Or if you want to pick up back where it left off, you can read it here: https://fyrearm.tumblr.com/post/161818412232
The rest of the pages will come to Tapas later, but the main place to read Fyrearm will be on the Tumblr site. So if you want to continue reading it--check it out there now!
Thank you all for the support and comments. Hopefully, I'll continue to see that on the Tumblr as well~<3
So I've given it a lot of thought and I have decided that Fyrearm will update up until the end of this chapter on Tapas, since we're reaching it fairly soon. After that, I will work out if chapter 2 will come to Tapas as a mirror or not, I'm not sold on the idea - but between now and chapter 2 - that will give me enough time to work that out.
For now, though, you can expect the rest of Chp1 on Tapas as well as on the new Tumblr I'm setting up soon-ish!
I am working on a batch update so I think Fyrearm be back and updated all at once to make up for the wait! I'll let you know when everything is ready.
I have no doubt that most of you know about the recent change in the Terms of Service. If you haven't, I'll give you a simple quick run-down:
Tapas has added The Right of First Refusal to the ToS, essentially (and supposedly) helping creators when it comes to getting published. It won't buy the rights to your work, just the ability to take it into an open market.
From what they've said, they are doing this for your best interest - but I'm not so keen on HOW it was done, just slipping it in there like that. I'm still sparse on a lot of details and I will be honest in that I only understand about half of it.
There has been more buzz and wide-spread panic. Especially to creators on twitter. This affects us more than readers after all. You read a thread from here: https://twitter.com/mkinyon/status/865184555782811648 (There is actually good legal talk in that thread if you want a better understanding of the term and what it means.)
Thankfully, they aren't trying to take our content or sign us away into doing so, I certainly haven't signed anything - and for now, I don't plan to. It just makes it harder to self-publish, "costing you time" as it was said.
However, this still makes me uncomfortable and unsure of what to do, what would be best for Me and my story. I've built up quite a good following on here and you all have been nothing but kind, supportive and patient.
That being said, my gut-feeling is telling me to halt Fyrearm for a moment and see what comes from this. I have already been planning on making my own site for some time now, just lacking the availability and energy to do it.
I don't want to throw this all away, not if I don't have to. But for now, I am just going to sit and watch. I'll keep you all updated on whether things will be moving to another site or continuing as normal on here.
Thank you for reading this and your continuous support of Fyrearm. I wouldn't be anywhere without you guys. <3
i feel you there! This sucks, but I'd been planning on making my own site anyway (and am thankful i already have a tumblr set up)
BUT best of luck to you!
If you DO decide to move to your own site, there's an easy way of putting your comic on your own hosting, and that's with a CMS called Grawlix. See more about it here: http://getgrawlix.com/
Hey y'all, I'm feeling really sick today and I was hoping to get it done today despite it being late BUT... I can't focus and my head is really stuffy.
So today's update will be out on Monday instead. ;u; Sorry and thank you for reading so far. <3
So hey guys, I assume most of you noticed that we're updating again! Huzzah!
Thankfully, my move was pretty smooth, so now it's just a matter of working again - and so far I am doing my best to stay on top of it! So expect regular updates! Things are gonna heat up real quick. ;D
I hope you've been enjoying Fyrearm so far. So glad to have finally gotten back into a rhythm with it. I am here to tell you that we're actually going to be taking just a single-week long break, after Friday's upcoming page.
I'm going to be busy that week moving and setting up in my new house! So we'll just have this slight delay but be back on schedule in no time flat!
Until that happens, I just want to thank you all for reading and commenting. <3
