Jenny Robins was in the audience and took notes in her sketchbook, which she then posted on Twitter. I wouldn't necessarily call all this business advice, but it's interesting that all of these creators boiled things down to more or less the same central idea...

- Put some brilliant alternative work out there.
- Big publishing works really slowly. Micropublishing is quick.
- The scene is usually supportive.
- Distribution is the biggest challenge. Distributors need 6 months notice.
- The only way to stay engaged is to do a lot of difficult things.
- Advice:
- Sanita: Make a website.
- David: Make work and show people.
- Peony: Believe that it's worth showing people.
- Tillie: Finish what you start -- nothing better to show a publisher than commitment.
