It occurs to me that I haven't promoted the Factor Fiction webcomics on LiveJournal at all, so I'm rectifying that right now.
We've been publishing The Girly Comic and Violent! for a few years now, and have decided, partly through the desire to mix things up and break through the glass ceiling of the British small press scene, but mostly through financial necessity, to take things onto the Intehwub, and have been beavering away for the last few months on our twin webcomic sites, where we're serialising strips from The Girly Comic and Violent! archives a page a day. It's also where we'll be debuting new material as it is completed.
The Girly Comic
Violent!
That's not to say that you won't still be able to buy paper editions any longer. Our website shop will remain open for the forseeable future, selling a range of back issues, at least until we bring the other part of our master plan to fruition. I previewed the cover to The Girly Comic Book Volume 1 a post or two back. It's been a while coming, but I can't wait to see it out there in people's hands. Just got to find all the old files, (some dating back to 2002), give them a spring clean and get them formatted!
In the meantime, I have three pitches to work on for one publisher, two with artists already on board and one with me going stag; final tweaks to Shelf Life prior to handing it over to a printer, and gawd knows how many other distractions, including going back to work tomorrow...

Here's a sneak peek at what should be the next major release from Factor Fiction - collecting strips from across the first seventeen issues of The Girly Comic in a shelf-friendly perfect bound edition, under a gorgeous Dez Taylor cover. Further down the line will be The Girly Comic Book Volume 2, collected strips from Violent! and Crazycrone: The Lee Kennedy Collection. And tomorrow, the world!
The Girly Comic Book Volume 1 will, all things being equal, debut at the Birmingham International Comics Show this October.
