Why do so many authors have health problems? I’m just wondering, is it because of their ...

I’m not sure but every single panel is hand drawn and typed out which takes very long to do which could cause them to neglect their own health and not realize how bad it is until it’s too late

Sedentry lifetsyle because they must be working remote, screen time, extremely demanding schedule, no pay guarantee (like they don't get salaries), toxic companies, and I think most small authors work alone. I'm sure the millions of views on piracy websites contributes to the stress. Idk if it's specific to BL authors tho

I drew art for 30 days straight for a fandom project and my wrist started hurting like a bitch. I can imagine if you're creating art for months/years, at some point your body just gives up on you.

Ah yes, I’ve heard that many companies haven’t been paying their workers well. The demand on producing chapters every week has been a huge problem, plenty of people make jokes about mappa workers being overworked but I can’t help but feel so bad for them. As for the piracy websites, I believe that they always have the right to be upset but I don’t think they should focus on these things to fuel their stress. Piracy isn’t going anywhere from the looks of it, people are also in financial situations so maybe they cannot pay for it, still that doesn’t excuse anything but shows a reason.

I can barely write 4 essays for different classes in the same time period so that must be terrible. I know this isn’t really a good comparison but after writing 2 essays for my classes, my hand and fingers hurt so bad. I couldn’t imagine drawing for 30 days straight so props to you. But yeah, your body does give up after a while of doing the same thing over and over again.

As you word it like that, now I understand why they use 3D models. I cant even fathom the pain some of the authors go through, mainly traditional manga artist who have to draw and ink everything.
