Gofundme for Coloring Book Trip

[awkwardshelby]

I've been doing this project recently where I'm making coloring book pages and I hope to get back on the road for inspiration, so any help would be appreciated, even a simple share on any of your sites.

I hope to meet some of you rad people and put your stories and selves into these pages. I know we're all poor here for the most part but any contribution, even a dollar will go toward the next destination, food, some camping, and printing costs of the books.

Here is a link to the gofundme page where you can read more.

Dang, that is poor timing but I'm sure we'll meet up eventually. I'd definitely love to shoot the shit and talk comix. Maybe even collaborate a little.

I am literally in the same boat, but no worries on cash! Even just good intentions wanting to support it should be enough good karma.

Dude, @awkwardshelby, if I had connections I'd put you in touch with somebody. Are you able to market your skills?

I think there is demand for what you have, but are simply unknown right now. Don't let that discourage you, your work rocks!

I'm able to market a little bit, I think I just need to find the right outlet as far as people goes. Otherwise, I post all over the internet, but I think just the right few people need to look at it.

Thanks a ton!!

Instagram is definitely the #1 spot to get your work seen right now. Start following everyone in your feild of illy + animation + comix, build networks. It takes time but youll get a solid following in return.

I've been doing that for years with tumblr but I've been noticing recently that Instagram is the way to go in terms of getting a big following. I need to just start tagging my stuff on there.

yeah, even the dumbest stuff i post on instagram gets like 20+ likes, which is a lot more than i can say for tumblr....

I have over 3,000 followers on tumblr because of some stickers I posted a year ago that got over 100,000 notes but it seems like I get more input on my art and messages on instagram than tumblr. Life is weird. Social media is weird.
