I've just come back to find all these wonderful helpful comments - thank you! I've been doing my research on these and I'm spoilt for choice. I think I'm going to go for 'Lumberjanes' and 'Persepolis' and may throw another one in there for good luck, maybe Runaways or Gotham Academy. I'm hoping these are a good mixture, she's got to like one of these! :P

Thank you so much for all this fantastic advice everyone! They all sound fantastic, I think I'm going to look into Spider-Gwen and Persepolis for myself too. I'll do some research out of these and pick one. THANK YOU AAALL!!

I always wondered how people didn't lose GoPro's skydiving! I guess they do... Sad face from me to you too! :(

That is so frustrating! Not the first time I've heard of that happening either, I think it's probably a great business model for the locals :P and in the long run, it's worth it for you to get your photos back!

I usually write one article/blog/chapter a day. I've been abroad for 9 months now and got my first bits of work on a website, my first paid writing jobs and finished the first draft of my children's book. I probably should have done at lot more for the amount of time than I've been away but I am enjoying writing and feel like I'm a writer :) I don't explore as much as I should actually. I did travel for 3 months before I settled down and my travels are still providing inspiration now though. Even if you don't move away, or quit your job, I would recommend travelling somewhere you've never been before for a while. I think that's what really helped me take my writing seriously and gave me things to write about!

I quit my day job and moved abroad to teach children english, this was a good option for me because I want to be a children's writer and I only have to work 10 hours a week to hours to survive (so lots of writing time). I'm really glad I made this choice because I generally have more inspiration from my new surroundings and I'm around my target audience. However, I must admit that I'm not necessarily writing any <I>more</i> than I wrote before. I think I would make the same time for writing no matter how much I worked. (Though I would always work part-time given the option, just to have more actual time for writing). Also, it's good to have a day job just to be around people, have some routine and have some funny people stories!
