John,
I just listened to episode 1001 and I enjoyed it very much. Congratulations on the accomplishment and thank you for all of the hard work, entertainment, education and thought provoking material.
If I might be so bold, I've been inspired by episode 1001 to ask a few questions myself.
Which of the following aspects of comics do you enjoy discussing more?:
1. The differences between the way the stories are put to market and then consumed by readers (ie. Single issues, trades, digitally, etc.)
2. The pros and cons, or the differences, in approaches different publishers take to creating comics
3. The comparisons between similar types of comics
A number of times you have mentioned having celiac disease. I understand that people with that issue have severe issues with processing gluten. How difficult have you found eating in restaurants or even shopping at the market for that matter? For anyone newly diagnosed with this or who has a loved one that has celiac, what resources would you recommend for them? Lastly, have you ever heard of or had any experience with the gluten free paleo diet?
Have you ever considered a periodic Q&A segment/mini-episode?
What do you like most about your website?
What would you most like to improve upon on your website?
If given the opportunity what business advice would you give to craft/indie comic publishers?
If you could put on your prognostication cap, what would you suspect the industry will look like in 10 years?
Where do you see the biggest disconnects between publishers, distributors, retailers and consumers?
You have briefly mentioned toying with the idea of starting a publishing group. If you were to do so, could you tell us something about what you believe your focus would be?
