How can I become a comic writer?

Become a comic writer does not require formal qualifications or education, though you must have strong creative writing skills, an understanding of sequential art constraints and techniques, and knowledge of illustration and publishing software. Though there are no formal educational requirements, many writers begin by studying fine arts, creative writing, or even filmmaking. Some art and design schools offer degrees or certificates in cartooning or comic art. You typically need a portfolio of work that showcases your storytelling skills. You can build this collection of work on your own or during a degree program.
