Ramon Gil give out some great Creator Tips

I recently had to write content for a “Career Tips” page for the new website The Comics Professionals Directory. Here’s what I came up with:

Build Those Relationships
Despite talent, editors and publishers tend to want to work with people who are their friends and whom they know they can count on. It’s often hard to get into one of these already-established inner circles but what you can do is build relationships with folks who are at the same level as you now so as you all advance in your careers, you form your own inner circles and you can all help each other out.
Reputation Is Everything!
The comic book creators community is a small one. Even if spread out over several countries. Word travels fast about who bad-mouthed who, who’s a pain to work with, who pays on time and so forth. Especially on social media. So be civil, be helpful and be respectful. You never know who’ll be in a position to give you work someday. Don’t burn bridges.
