3 and a half years of absence here, long story short:

- after 11 years of working in architectural offices, I had no other choice but to go for a career change. During the last few years (of 11), as the only employee due to heavy economic crisis, I was doing the job of at least 2 people (oftentimes more) and destroyed my right hand & wrist in the process. Ended up with a severe case of carpal tunnel syndrome. Any further intense work in CAD software would render me disabled.

- for the past 3+1/2 years (since New Year of 2016), I worked as a civil servant in a government agency. The agency (kinda) completed its primary task and was thus shut down with the end of June of this year. Currently unemployed, searching.

- my marriage has been falling apart for a few years now, due to most insane and otherworldly forces and there was nothing I could do about it. Fell apart, actually, there's no going back, ever. Not even sorry anymore, way past that stage. I just wish we did it like human beings, not like this.

- nothing to post here all this time, hence the long absence and seclusion. I did, however, begin and finish a graphic novel during my online absence, behind the scenes. A two-decades-old idea for a story, finally materialized. Supremely happy with how it turned out. And that's where I need the help of whopping 4 and a half people who  still have me on their watch lists after all this time....

****
I now have a complete original sci-fi graphic novel (in English) of 126 pages total (116 interior pages plus covers and supplements, a finished volume), A4 page size in color. It is the first in a planned series of (most likely) 3 books. Created, written, drawn, colored and lettered by me.

If any of you - by any chance - have some knowledge on how and where I can try to get it published, know publishers that accept submissions, have some useful tips, experience, contacts, contacts who have contacts, or any of that, any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm completely new at this, I have no idea where to start...
....including if publishing it here page by page and spreading the word in hope of someone picking it up is an acceptable starting option (that doesn't eliminate anything that could come later), I'm a stranger to all things legal unless they have to do with the Building Code and related regulations. The material has been copyrighted to my name, if that's of any relevance...

Sounds like a 'now or never' situation, it seems....hm.
Thanks in advance!

Oh, and how have you been..? :)
