Artist's Notes
I wanted to try self publishing, so I made this into a physical book (100 full colour pages) and tried to sell it on Amazon. I thought something small and cute would be nice for a first try, so I made these daily life comic strips with my OCs Shiro and Kuro.
I managed to pull through till the end and sold several copies on Amazon, but ended up finding that selling solid copies wasn’t for me (The whole process of printing was expensive and took time. Selling, packing, sending and managing stock required lots of energy, etc.). I really admire all the independent artists who were able to handle all that!
Still, I thought that it was a good try and a good learning experience. Shiro and Kuro were always lovely to draw too, so cheers!
Trivia
