oh yea hi i forgot to announce this here too lol

If you're somehow not aware yet, my main project right now is the sex-positive coming-of-age satire meta comic The Coarse Curse.

Since my entire focus is mostly on The Coarse Curse series, I'm obligated to inform the followers of this account to check out the recently made Series Directory of TCC:

https://thecoarsecurse.crd.co/

This site contains everything you need TCC wise. If you ever get lost in the reading order, want a convenient place to find all of the official sources of each entry or if you want to recommend this comic to someone(lol), this site is for you!

Currently, it features: The main entry directories itself, a story and character section that will be expanded later on, a FAQ section and a way to support the comic.

while you wait for tcc episode 2 ending, this ama will be up until then

oh btw the next batch of pages is literally the ending and you're not gonna be seeing that in a while cuz i have to prepare it like i did with ep1. so uh... see you next year lol

I really have my work cut out for me.

Also, I'm curious! I never got a good grasp of the aura of this comic's 'fanbase'

If you have any thoughts and comments about the comic, I'd like to hear it!

Hello. I've posted NSFW in this account but in a bit of a hush-hush way; you have to go out of your way to find them.

This account hasn't been known as an NSFW account; even though ironically I actually made this account as a way for me to post NSFW stuff outside of my usual main accounts. (this used to be called "KerzidNSFW").

Back on topic. I have an NSFW comic that's been ongoing for quite a while now (you can find it in some obscure porn hosting sites). I'm curious if it would mess up the vibe this account has going on with all the vibrant/moody art if I were to post it all here. I know it's my account and I can do whatever the hell I want anyway plus the point of NSFW stuff already existing in my gallery. I still want to consider if anyone has a say in this. I also want to engage with the followers I have on this account which are unironically actually my favorite (despite that really funny comment of a recent controversy).

And for context, the comic is on the same par as my other works. I wouldn't be making it if I weren't proud to continue it. I am a total advocate for character development and heartfelt stories. I'm a storyteller at heart. It took some careful planning to make sure I'd actually want to continue an NSFW comic because I fundamentally don't even enjoy drawing it. What made me continue it is creating the characters and wanting to see their stories unfold and share them with you! (It's also awesome that NG added the comic pages feature, big thumbs up from me, it used to be a pain in the ass uploading comics here)

So? What ya think? Shall I post my NSFW comic here? I'll probably do it either way but would love to hear your thoughts!

(You've probably seen this cover before, I've posted it here once before)

Wrote a blog post about all the mistakes I've made and the lessons I learned while writing my first comic script.

I compiled all the logs I made during my learning process of writing Beyya and Sanjay.

http://openletterfromthemind.blogspot.com/2020/07/writing-logs-take-to-heart-book-one.html

I wanted to get out of my comfort zone and wanted to learn how to write properly. Little did I know, I had to do a lot of research for the simplest of story elements. It was eye-opening knowing how much I didn't know.

I encourage novice writers to read these logs. Maybe it'll provide enough insight to entice you to learn as much as I did.

If you're interested with the thought process of my art, I made a blog post all about what I've learned in the past three months! I also talk about my art style and how I pick colors.
