My last video essay, “Manga is NOT Comics” didn’t sit well with some and that’s me being polite. I’d never seen such a massive misunderstanding and willful ignorance at play in response to a topic I brought forth to encourage productive discourse. This led me to do a follow up video, “The Two Faces of Comics (An Open Letter to the Community)” where I respond to the video’s reception and voice my own concerns regarding maintaining a public persona in a creative field like comics.
If what I have to say resonates with you, be sure to let me know. I’d love to lend an ear and help to keep building towards greater things together on the horizon.
Thanks for being here,

Sorry some people were hostile. It'll pass,please take care,
Hear hear (especially given personal experience).
Too many people are too eager to pounce and destroy over ANYTHING.
