   It is some years since I was a regular but I am enormously grateful for the   
   many conversations here which gave me a language to discuss writing and helped   
   me to teach it at a    
   couple of UK unis.

   The webcomic must take ages. It looks great. How are you going to self publish   
   the webcomic - that must be more difficult than text only? I am interested in   
   the self pub business. Last time I was here it was such a no-no and now   
   everyone is doing it (    
   seriously almost every writer I know has self pubbed something because we all   
   have so much stuff!!)
