If you’re wondering just HOW mess a zero draft should be…look no further!

Warming up is key. We each have different ways of doing it, and we know each person’s warm up or ritual is going to be different.

Using this mindset of the minimum baseline is a trick for the brain. If what you choose to do seems mind-numbingly easy, you’re right on track.

What decisions do you NEED to make about your work before you zero draft it? Just two.

ou can steal from (aka be inspired by) your favourite comics works. That’s your favourite artist lifting you up!

You’re still telling your story, your way, with help. 

Here’s the thing, folks: you’re never going to start with a refined idea, and then wild it out later. The energy you bring in this first gesture, these raw moments, is precious.

Tell me if this sounds familiar: you’ve got a comics project you love, whatever size, and your ideas are GREAT, but you’re struggling to start. Too much of it is in your head, and it’s overwhelming to get it all out imperfectly.

…That’s where a zero draft comes in.
