The submission form for MicroCHIPs issue #1 is linked in our bio! 🌟 (2/2)

MicroCHIPs FAQ: Q: If my submission is successful, what will the
deadline be for completing my comic? / A: We will set a deadline for approximately mid-late June for the completion of comics for issue #1 of MicroCHIPs. We will determine an official date once the submission
deadline (May 15th) has passed and we have reviewed how many submissions we can accept. / Q: Will contributors to this project be paid? / A: Yes! Contributors will be paid £30 per comic page. This was determined by comparing the page rates of other UK-based small press publishers, taking MicroCHIP-specific factors into consideration, including preparation time artists may need to develop their comics for this project, and the page size artists will be working to. / Q: Can I submit more than one fun fact? / A: Sure! Please make a separate submission for each fun fact, as we would count those as separate comics. Depending on the number of submissions we recieve, we may accept both/all of your submissions!
