I have lots of 'work' as it were, but it's all spec work, not paid work - I'm making my own comic so I have something to take to the Con next year, and I have a friend (well a group of them, musicians, programmers and writers) who are making a game, and I'm doing art for it - but it's probably not going to make money

yep, I think you have to be pushy, but I /hate/ when people push stuff at me so I don't want to be pushy, so you've got to be subtily pushy.. so tricky. But Facebook, instagram, dA, http://commishartify.com tumblr, pintrest, basically anywhere you can get facetime I suppose
