Hello all!
I am just wishing to get feedback on an idea I've had for quite some time regarding one of my stories.
Currently, I am in the process of writing a science fiction/fantasy epic called "The Cerulean Chronicles", that which I touched on in a previous post three months ago:
http://www.ticklingforum.com/showthread.php?313402-The-Cerulean-Chronicles-(Series-Teaser)
I am currently into the third chapter, and have been posting it as an exclusive series on my Patreon page for those who support me.
However, as I am writing it, I sense that there is more potential to this project than merely isolated chapters that only a few people would sit down to read all the way through.
I'm thinking it would be better served as a comic.
This is not something I consider viable for every one of my stories, as my style of writing delves as much into the psychological aspects of the story as anything else, that which I think the written word is best suited for. However, with this story being so much more story driven, fleshing out the world in which these characters live in, creating distinct identities and scenarios for them in such an original fashion, I think there is great potential in this translating into a comic.
As well, though I intended this to be an exclusive story for my patrons, I do not want to limit it to only those who have paid for access, for while I like making money off of my work, I do not want to exclude people either based on if they can or cannot pay, or if they just don't have the patience to sit down and read an entire story.
Now, here is what I have to ask all of you:
Would you consider purchasing a tickling comic if I were the author, or any comic in general?
Have you purchased tickling comics in the past, recently or otherwise?
Who would you think would be the best artist to render a space-themed tickle comic?
Would such a project, if ever completed, be financially viable, given the tendency for comics to be posted online without permission, thereby stiffing its creators and discouraging the practice entirely?
If so, would you consider contributing to a crowd-funding campaign to get it published and distributed for free, or at least to those who supported it?
Let me know in the comments below, and thank you for your help!
