Sometimes I have time to answer emails like these, but most of the time I dont—or even worse, I forgot to before your project is due (oh no! sorry!) However, most of the questions you have are probably already answered on this website! You can also check out my interviews for answers to any questions you may have. You can still email me if there’s a question you really want answered, but success rate on this is like 50%.

You can also use my art to illustrate your assignment, as long as it is a) for personal, non-commercial use and b) credited to me.

You just need to start. I always advise people to post their comics online for feedback from readers, because that’s how most of us learn what’s working and what isn’t. Done is better than perfect, and don’t worry about making the best comic in the world right away.

If you’re asking about how to succeed at publishing comics, then that’s a much more complicated question. I am working on a very long answer that will hopefully be helpful to a lot of people, but give me some time.

Depending on my schedule, I try to be available to speak at events, whether virtual or in-person (if in Egypt and possible.) I cannot promise I will speak well, but I will speak.

Currently, I do not take personal commissions, but for long-term projects and comics work please email me deenadraws@gmail.com or my agent anjali@pandeliterary.com

Prints of my work are currently available only at Cairocomix or local events, or through Maamoul Press. If I launch an online print store, I will let you know.

I allow non-commercial use of images from Qahera for academic papers and articles, as long as it is appropriately credited. You can save it directly from the webcomic site.

For other artwork in higher resolution print quality, please email me for permission or printing rights.

Qahera is never over, just paused. She’ll be back someday, because it looks like we are never making it out of the patriarchy.

You can check out the Shubeik Lubeik in English page for purchase options.

Qahera is available for free on the website. There is currently no paid version of Qahera. Some quality prints may be available from Maamoul Press soon.
