Tomorrow we kick off the daily #WebcomicTalk. Over five days we'll be posting a single question themed around the topic of "practice."

When you see the posts, please boost them and share your responses so we can share them with other #webcomic and #webtoon creators. Don't forget the ever important #WebcomicTalk hashtag, either!

Looking forward to this exciting experiment. See you around noon, PST, tomorrow!

For next week's #WebcomicTalk, I am considering taking the five questions and doing one question a day for five days. Rather than a bunch of questions in the span of a day, you would have more time to respond and boost the question with no pressure of feeling like missing a "live" event.

Does that sound preferable to some us? I think doing this sort of thing differently on Mastodon has its advantages.

I think there could be something cool about doing the q&a one week, and try8ng to get a #webcomic hashtag trending the next. This might make for a more fun way to share all sorts of #webcomics out there.

On that note, if you tag your webcomic updates with #WebcomicTalk I tend to see them pretty quickly and can boost your posts right away.

It has been very exciting to see everyone post the first pages of their #webcomics to show #WhereItStarted.

I'll be posting about the hashtag a couple of more times this week to see if we can wrangle more #webcomic and #webtoon creators to share their work.

Remember, be sure to include the hashtags #WhereItStarted and #WebcomicTalk so we can keep track and share your first #comic pages.

While we won't be doing a #WebcomicTalk this week since we're going biweekly, instead, we ask #webcomic creators to share something special this week as part of our trending challenge...

Post the first page of your webcomic, and by that we mean a page, not a cover. Show us your first comic page and include the hashtag #WhereItStarted. Don't forget to include the hashtag #WebcomicTalk so we can track and share your pages as well!

Besides running #WebcomicTalk, I write a biweekly article for The Duck #Webcomics that analyze panels and #comic theory.

I also want to make it a little more interactive, so we're running out first scavenger hunt based on Wally Wood's "22 Panels That Always Work."

So, please check out the article, and if you have a panel for your comic that fits the panel style in question, let me know!

The response rate for #WebcomicTalk was pretty low this week, which is admittedly disappointing.

I think doing it every two weeks probably best for now. The Fediverse should have a #webcomic discussion hashtag like other social media sites.

Thanks for joining this week's #WebcomicTalk. We'll be boosting the questions a couple more times today to ensure #webcomic creators can chime in. If you see the questions, even days later, we'd love to hear what you have to say!

We are considering making #WebcomicTalk bi-weekly. What do you think about that? Please let us know.
