Dreams begin to become reality once you wake up and get going.
So I sat down tonight to put together a creator spotlight for Our Oni Press tribute week at Inter-comics.com and I did what I always do when I sit down at the computer…
I open my internet
And my homepage pops up
And yep, that just happens to be OniPress.com
Now I must admit I usually pay a brief glance and then move on with whatever it is I’m doing, but something happened to catch my eye…
Here’s the LINK
If you’ve clicked the link great – if not – please slap yourself in the face for me. THANKS!
What I linked you to was a post by Tom Shimmin, the Marketing Director at Oni Press. In the post he explains that Oni will be taking on interns and begins to list the details.
Kind of crazy, right?
You can get into Oni that easy…
This is just another one of those awesome things about Oni… Always about sharing prosperity.
Well, certainly not easy – but definitely a lot easier than someone like I would have ever thought.
Let’s be REAL! There are many names who work at Oni and I’m not talking creators, I’m talking about the people who orchestrate the symphony of pure comicmarket glory – that we know as Oni Press – the creator owned powerhouse of the WORLD.
This is just another one of those awesome things about Oni… Always about sharing prosperity.
Which leads me to ask YOU, my fine friends, will one of you take up the call? Will, you put everything else aside for your love of comics to make this internship a reality?
I also want to ask who will make this a reality not because it’s a “career” path but because it’s a way of life.
Dreams begin to become reality once you wake up and get going.
Shit. Last year I was 3,000 miles away from where I’m sitting right now.
You have to stand up and take what you want and be brave in the face of fear.
Now, after all those attempts to stir something quite awesome in your soul, I want only this one question actually answered: What would an internship at Oni Press mean to you?
