christasyd asked: Hi Gail! I want to be a comic artist for major companies like DC or Marvel, but I feel a bit discouraged because of the more talented and experienced competitor, for I'm still in high school. And I really want to show you my portofolio, but sadly I can't go to cons because I live in Indonesia and flight tickets are expensive. I've heard many artists there started out in Tumblr right?

Yeah, I have picked a couple artists from Tumblr myself. Get your work out there, get it seen. It’s a longshot still, but if your work is good, and you keep at it, there is a chance. Good luck!
