Comic Book Writers on Writing | Ep. 8 | feat. Marketing Wizard Russell Nohelty

Описание: #makingcomics #comicbook #writingcomics

I had a very insightful chat with writer, Russell Nohelty, where we talked everything from writing comics to promoting them on social media, creating and maintaining a mailing list, the benefits of running and contributing to anthologies, and so much more!

Russell is the author of many comics and novels, including How to Build a Creative Business and How to Become a Successful Author, and has run just about 20 Kickstarter campaigns raising over $250,000!
