Part One: WHAT NOT TO DO My last two columns were about "What Diamond Can Do for You?" and "What Can You Do For Diamond?" While these subjects are important, they are also moot if you don't take the all-important next step – you must submit your project to Diamond.
Last time, I went over what Diamond can do for you.
At the end of my last column, I asked this Burning Question: What can Diamond do for you? But before you can even consider that question, you need to prepare yourself for what will probably be the most important relationship in your comic book publishing life.
What is Diamond Comic Distributors? The FAQ page on their website answers that this way: Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc.
Not too long ago, comic book conventions were relegated to dark, back rooms at hotels.
After two side columns, we have finally returned to the Business Focus.
At the end of my previous column, I closed with: Next time: The True Indie Comic Book Industry.

CORRECTION: It was recently brought to my attention of an error I made in this column, which I will now correct.
