186: Because then you could argue I keep posting for the attention
Please take a minute to vote for Roomie over on TopWebcomics, where you can now view the storyboards I drew as the first draft of Chapter 3!
Check out my Patreon to support the comic. Q&As are answered monthly, feel free to leave questions in the comments that start with “Patreon question” or something similar, and they’ll be answered with original comics! Thanks!
Please read, would like some input!
I’m thinking of printing Chapter 1 and 2 of roomie as a real book. (Technically a version of Chapter 1 exists in print but it’s really crappy and low quality) But I have some questions first!
Question 1: Roomie has a super weird page size (a square), so would you rather have a book that’s also a square, or a regular shaped book with a bunch of white space above and below it?
Question 2: Would you be interested in purchasing a copy, even though you’ve read the story already? Chapter 1 is likely going to come with a brand new bonus scene of 10-20 pages, so that’s SOME new material. As for Chapter 2, idk yet. Probably just some concept art or something.
Question 3: Speaking of a bonus scene, I still haven’t decided what it will be about. Some kind of prologue probably. Is there anything from back around Chapter 1 and 2 that you would’ve liked to know more about? (no matter what, it’s gonna involve Orev and demon stuff)
Thanks for your input :)
Answer 1) It depends… would less page be cheaper for you in the long run or would the strange shape make it more expensive? Also I like the idea of margin doodles :3
Answer 2) Heck yeah i wanna purchase it! All the support!
Answer 3) … I don’t… think? so?????
It might be more expensive to do the weird size, I’m actually waiting for the quote from the printers right now… People seems to be excited about margin doodles, though, so that might have decided it already. And thanks, I’m so happy I have your support ^^
Answer 3 cuz I actually went back) how are demons made/ what are they made of and how are they named/ what’s their naming scheme
Eyyyy that’s something I already know the answer to. I could try to answer that in the comic!
Wow. Mary is not very good at keeping the demon stuff secret.
hey, larping is a WAY better excuse then the ‘gangs on pcp’ and ‘fell with his neck on bbq-forc’ stuff they used on buffy ;-)
yay for luke+hugh spending time together, without mary twisting their arm to do so! there´s still hope for their ship to sail!!
as for your book….i´d say some white space below is better then an awkward shape. you could add a few doodles, fun facts or thoughts in that space ;-)
sadly, between shipping+taxes me buying stuff is a no-no, i´ve had that same problem with other comics i read – 35.00 € for taxes is simply more then i can afford. but how about a pdf-version for just a couple of bucks?
Larping is an even more legitimate excuse around her friend group since they’ve done the same thing. She could maybe deliver it better though…
Thanks for the feedback! Another friend suggested putting things in the white space, too. A lot of extra work for me to figure out though XD but could be fun.
I’m a bit hesitant on the pdf, since those things tend to get copied and pirated, and if you want a digital version, it’s already on the site. I suppose you’d just be paying for the bonus content.
Wow 35€ is a lot? I can’t see it being more than $10 for the book + $18 international shipping (25€ total or so)
the 35€ would be taxes ONLY, on top of shipping+the cost for the book – its that way for everything you want to get from outside the EU. supposedly its so high because they have to check every parcel for illegal stuff but i think its ridiculous…..honestly, a friend of mine who collects stamps had a few send to him from overseas in a letter, and *still* had to pay the full amount. 3 bucks for stamps, more then 10 times the amount on taxes, he was NOT a happy camper, i tell you!
WoAH jeez I didn’t know there were such crazy taxes like that! O_O That is indeed absurd
But somehow people believe her anyway…
This time though, it makes sense. Two guys come in, Mary is very defensively simplifying their relationship…
I think Lael might think Mary feels a bit akaward with having Additional Information about their relationship.
What she wouldn’t realize is the nature of that Additional Information.
Hahahaha. That’s a good point.
