Women of Webcomics: Jess Fink
Jess Fink
This week, Stephanie interviewed Jess Fink. As a multi-talented woman, Fink creates everything from t-shirt designs to webcomics like Kid with Experience. Her sense of humor and imaginative ideas keep fans coming back for more. Take a look at GeekGirlCon’s sneak peek in to the world of Jess Fink.
SL: Do you consider yourself a geek?
JF: Sure! I think everyone is in one way or another.
SL: What started your geeky interests?
JF: Oh, all those hours I spent watching Loony Tunes as a little kid couldn’t have helped much!
SL: What do you geek out about the most?
JF: Probably comics! Or music.
SL: How much of Kid with Experience is fact vs fiction?
JF: Except for the excerpt from my book We Can Fix It (coming from TopShelf next year), all the autobiographical comics are totally fact! We Can Fix It has facts mixed with science fiction.
SL: Originally you published hourly comics to a blog. What drove you to create a webcomic?
JF: People kept asking me about certain comics I’d written and where they could find them again. I also had such a huge backlog that I thought it would be nice to have them all in one place.
