Listening to one of my favorite weekly YouTube shows, Lean Into Art, Jerzy had an idea that resonated with me. I want to make his brainstorm into a challenge to all of my comic creator friends.

Here's the challenge:
Between now and October complete a plot and thumbnails for an 8 page mini comic. Get it all set and ready to ink for the annual Inktober challenge.
Then, each day, ink and present a section of each page as you complete the inks. The goal is to have an 8 page mini comic ready to ship at the end of the month.
It gives us a deadline built into a challenge we were likely to take part in anyway. At the same time it affords us an opportunity to show people our progress along the way.
What a fun way to complete Inktober!

So, if you are up to the challenge, join us in posting your 8 Page Inktober progress through the month. Blog about it, make videos, post images, tweet, snap the chats and tumbl the r's.
Each time you post, throw out a hashtag to the challenge so others can find you.

And please, share the crap out of this to all of your comic artist friends.
