My friend Jane and I just got a reply from the editor after we sent in the script and the drafts of the comic strips. I honestly didn’t expect her(the editor) to reply on a Saturday, but it’s only a first-impression feedback for the time being, but her feedback was indeed positive!
She liked the unusual spy vs. spy concept(can’t really reveal more than that) and that she hadn’t seen anything like it before, which was usually a good sign. But she wanted to see more drafts of the strips themselves, to better give a full feedback. So while Jane makes more drafts, I’m gonna try and come up with more ideas:)
Did this totally make my day? Yes it did:) I’m even getting paid for it! I’d be happy just to get the script on print, but hey, my wallet contains more moths than coins, so I’m not saying no-thanks either!
Then there is the really stressful part that my friend Jane mentioned. If this becomes a success(unlikely, but who knows?) we would have to establish a firm. That would mean deadlines for more script. Wage distribution. Taxes. All the legal stuff. Makes me break out in a cold sweat just thinking about it. Particularly since I’m completely retarded when it comes to numbers and economics, and anything even remotely related to it. I think derp, is in order here.
But like Jane said; One step at the time!
