: As you should, Pro-tools is fun to experiment with,
: though it does need lots of space on your computer. My
: solution was to buy a firewire back-up hard drive.
: They're cheap and once you start playing around with
: the program, indespensable.

: B/W to start with. This is my first attempt at self
: publishing, and I would like to keep things as simple
: as possible for a little while. I agree, newsprint is
: not white, and makes the art come out looking quite
: lackluster in my opinion.

I'll ask what the name and weight of the paper in Scarab is, if that is the type you are looking for. Most printers can send you samples of the different types for you to compare.
Of course, self publishing in this market can be pretty hairy for several reasons. You might also consider presenting your finished story to a publisher that does creator owned projects. The publisher would front the cost, and has a chain of sales and sales plan already in place, and can make it a more attractive proposition for the retailers to order more of your book. It is worth considering.

: No problem. As I said before, I like getting people into
: making music. It's a great way to work without feeling
: like your working. Look for the package sometime early
: next week, I think the program takes awhile to burn,
: and I need to prep for a big show this weekend. At any
: rate, I need to get back to writing.

Thanks. At your convenience, certainly. I know that the show is a really big deal. I think I read about it in SPIN magazine.

Best,

DM
