Working on a lot of RSD / Emotion stuff and the book pitch!
Added 2020-01-08 14:21:01 +0000 UTCHey! So the holidays were exhausting but still kind of relaxing and a much needed break. To be honest, at the moment I’m pretty nervous about the book pitch.
I’ll be working on making a 25?page pitch to send to publishers so hopefully i can get a real printed comic out soon :) but the thoughts about being just a clueless idiot started popping up. „Who gave you the right to talk about such stuff?“ „They’re going to see you’re just an idiot“. Pretty harsh, I know. I’m working on it and it really helps reminding myself of all the positive support I get. So, I just gotta focus on my experiences and write them down. I’ll try to be a bit less on social media so I will stop thinking about what others think and just —- tell my story. Even if it’s super embarrassing sometimes.
Script for „RSD shadow“

Page 3, trying to come up with a layout where I can have an element going over all panels. It’s about forgetting things :)

Also working on an explanatory graphic for RSD/ Emotional Dysregulation

No idea if this is interesting but I got two blackboards to organize all comics! (Yes this is just my living room used as a studio)

Book stuff!! Top sketch will be the Cover (for now), and some character concepts for the pitch

I also have to draw a self portrait for the pitch and I always hate doing that. Nothing ever feels like me, if that makes sense. I like the drawing, but not sure if that’s really representing me, hmm

I should be able to upload comic WIPs soon :)

2020-01-10 01:01:18 +0000 UTCYou're crushing it Pina. I was drawn to your comics because it was a voice I hadn't heard when talking about ADHD and finally could relate and I know many others feel the same way. Let me know when I can preorder your fabulous book! ✨

2020-01-08 18:25:48 +0000 UTCPina, you consistently nail it like no one else does. When it comes to describing daily life with ADHD, your comics capture our experience with a raw honesty that is instantly accessible to everyone, whether they have ADHD or not. Your book will be valuable to so many. You can do it!
2020-01-08 16:41:27 +0000 UTCPina I wish you the best of luck in getting your book published (I will definitely be getting myself a copy). Your comics have been a huge source of inspiration for others and myself so always keep that in mind! You got this!
