Episode 6 - Productivity and Wally Wood's 22 Panels
It’s Monday, so I’m a few days late on doing this thing. And that’s part of what today’s episode is all about. Time management and productivity. BUT I’m not talking to anybody but myself today. As I’ve been doing for the past five episodes: Odd numbered episodes are interviews and even ones are solo. I figured time management and being productive would be a good topic for today, since I’m late for last Friday’s episode. I also talk about Wally Wood's 22 Panels That Always Work, and a new project of my own (Because I'm SOOOOO not busy. And I need one more thing to add to my plate.)
If you're thinking of giving Clip Studio a try, please use my link (www.pat-higgins.com/csp (https://www.pat-higgins.com/csp)). It'll give me a little kickback, and I'll send you some free custom Clip Studio brushes! Just email me once you get it.

Episode 2 - Emails: Check Fraud and DYI vs. Publishers
I was originally anticipating doing an episode of FAQ every two weeks, but I totally forgot to mention that on the first episode. And if it wasn’t for all of you awesome folks tuning in to episode 1, and your kind emails and messages, I wouldn’t be doing this second episode so early. I’m in the middle of editing an interview that was supposed to be episode 2 (which like I mentioned, TAKES TIME) but I stopped that to do this quick solo episode. One person is easier to clean up and edit than when I’m talking to somebody else. So in this one, I’ll be shooting the shit with myself and answering YOUR Fucking Art Questions!
