Interview: Sarah Cho - Camgirl

Story and Themes

  1. Camgirl explores intense themes like fetishization, sex work stigmatization, and identity. What inspired you to tackle these issues through Dani’s story?
  2. Can you give us the elevator pitch for the one-shot?
  3. Dani’s dual identity as herself and her online persona, Kyoko, highlights themes of performance and identity. How did you approach crafting the tension between these two worlds?
  4. You’ve mentioned exploring how people view and treat Asian women. What message or conversation do you hope Camgirl sparks in readers regarding this cultural obsession and the dangers it brings?
  5. Camgirl is framed as a psychosexual thriller. How do you balance the psychological tension and erotic elements to keep the story compelling and meaningful?

Characters and Development

  1. The antagonist in Camgirl is an obsessive follower of Dani’s online persona. What can you tell us about the psychological or thematic importance of this stalker figure?

Creative Process

  1. You’ve worked in speculative fiction before with Red Light. How did your creative approach differ when crafting a more grounded but still intense story like Camgirl?
  2. Collaboration with an artist is key in comics. How did C.P. Smith’s art style help bring Dani’s world to life, especially when depicting the dual realities of her life and her online persona?
  3. Why the use of drugs in the book?
  4. If Dani could take a vacation from both her real life and her online persona, where do you think she’d go, and how would she spend her time off?
