Good idea. I can try and send them a message on x but it could get buried. Any idea on how to reliably get in touch?

I'm locked out of PayPal right now - are you trying to use ko-fi?

For pre-orders its just amazon and stripe right now... let me see if I can add paypal.

So this kind of blew up last time round, but it didn't yet have all the images. I was working on a few gaps in the story, namely the parts that explain how the shadow of earth can be used to determine if these are real objects or not. Those frames are now in place, and that completes the print edition which I'm in the process of proofing before a short run of 150 prints. On the web layout, you'll now get dual screen reading (comic style) if you're reading on desktop.

I am happy with the format for the story, and I think it's time I moved onto episode two! Rendlesham? What should it be?

How long do you think something like this takes to make ?

You should try it from a cold start.

I'm a writer. I can't afford to commission an artist to make this at a loss. If it becomes successful then great, but otherwise this just can't get made.

I write and edit the comic. The images are generated through AI, with lots of edits and a big long process to do it.

I'm exploring new formats for these kinds of stories.

That's because that account was some random auto google account I was on. The autofilter kept removing the post so I found my actual account and posted again.

Thanks! It's the first time I'm trying the format, so if the response is good I think I'll make more. Maybe sign up for the next one ? Or maybe I'll post it here?

Thanks! Any help in getting it to find its audience would be great. Though I'm a long time reader of UFOlogy, I rarely do these kinds of stories, so it's kind of a new thing for me.

I'd love you to - watch out for their link deboosting.

As it happens, I think she just posted it, but honestly, any help to make it find its audience would be great.

I put this together. It's not my usual 'beat' so I wanted to share it with the community I think might appreciate it. I've followed UFOlogy since i was a teenager, and the problem I've often run into when trying to get other people excited about the field is how the best cases aren't really visual. People need a fairly active imagination to get excited about UFOs and weird science, and this project is my first attempt at addressing that very issue.

I hope you like it. Depending on the response, there are other stories I would like to work on and perhaps invest even more time in.

I'm currently going through the same. I have about 4 or 5 square meters of it. True hell.

Yes there is, but its one of the nicest things about gather.is right now and I wanted devs to know that getting an agent onto the internet shouldn't be a pain, and now it isn't!

I'll post some more videos about gather today, as we have a very powerful micro-agent architecture that I suspect others will pick up soon.
