Artist Initiative
ACHF Arts Access
I intend to gain valuable experience with publishing and marketing my work by printing and distributing my work to retailers through the major comic distribution channel and by giving readings. I intend to sell all 2,000 copies and use proceeds to continue publishing an ongoing series that will evolve from the original work. If I can manage to sustain publishing the series to completion from the initial proceeds, as well as build a solid online audience for my work I will consider myself successful. 2: By holding small events such as book signings and readings throughout the area, I can raise awareness about my work and the work of comic artists at large throughout Minnesota. I think if I can manage to increase the number of readers who frequent the comic shops at which I present based off feedback from the store owners, I will consider the work a success.
