“I’ve always tried to do things in a different way. … To me it feels very easy to do this stuff because the other way would feel claustrophobic, and I’d hate it. So, it’s not a choice, it’s just, that’s the way my brain chemistry works.”

Greg Rucka Maintains Integrity As A Freelance Comics Writer, So Alex Jaffe Thinks You Can Too
What do you do when the large media companies that contract you try to push you around? Greg can help you with that.
Greg Rucka is the New York Times bestselling author of hundreds of comics and novels. He has written for publishing houses like DC & Marvel on some of their biggest titles, and is also known for his original works like Lazarus and The Old Guard, which he then adapted into a film for Netflix starring Charlize Theron.
“To be a writer requires this bizarre tension between arrogance and humility. You have to believe that what you’re doing is worth somebody spending money to read, but at the same time you need to remain humble enough to know what you don’t know, to not believe your own press, to keep seeking to improve, to keep trying to take these swings - with the knowledge you’re going to miss some of ‘em!”

[…] So I think, you know, scaling is only an issue if you're able to scale and we've had the ability and I honestly, when I started this out, like the thing that made me move away from GameSpot was I wanted to run all of GameSpots video sort of work and I have always had ideas about running large media organizations. The reason why we have stayed small, I guess there are personal reasons as well about being a dad and a husband and enjoying life and I already wear too many hats as it is. But I think as it pertains to no clip in particular, the whole point of this doesn't work if you try and turn it into a big corporate outlet or a media house or something like that. […]
