New Years update (Patreon)
Content
You may have noticed that I've been a little bit less active recently. Between the holidays and the New Year's, I have managed to overwork my hand severely.
I thought that I've learned how to deal with my hand issues, but it seems that I was wrong. Looks like I still have a lot to learn. Mainly, how to slow down.
I am, slowly, getting my hand back into working condition. Right now I can handle about an hour and a half of drawing each day. Which is a big step down from my average five to six hours before.
I'm going to have to slow down for the foreseeable future. It's something that I should have done last year, but I just didn't want to. I think I can still manage to get Alfie done every week, but everything else has to be put on back burner for now.
Meanwhile, I'll focus on actually recovering my hand. I'm gonna have to make some changes. For example, right now I am dictating this post instead of writing it by hand. Windows voice to text software seems to actually be pretty good.
I thought that this could be a good time to do a roundup of all of my projects. I do get questions every once in a while about when is this or that is getting updated and I think it's a good time to lay it out.
Alfie: No changes here. Finishing Alfie remains my top priority. You can expect two pages every week.
Nun and Witch comic: Secondary priority. As soon as I have any breathing room I will commit time back into finishing this one.
Patrons suggestions and votes: I'm afraid that I will have to cut those for now. Which is a shame, because I've been really enjoying them recently. I feel bad about not having a weekly vote But I just cannot afford anymore projects right now.
GrimLewd: this one is in an awkward spot for me. While while I do like a lot of the designs and ideas I've put into this world, I think the format was wrong. The NSFW work comics focused way too much on individual characters, instead of establishing the world. I do want to come back to this project one day with a different angle. A GrimLewd 2.0 of a sort. For now, it's on ice, but not dead.
Midlife Crisis: Believe it or not, this one is not dead. I think that after I finish the Nun and Witch comic I will commit some time to finish this one.
The invitation: once in a while, I still play around with the idea of continuing the Invitation. It is my favorite work to date. But then I remember how much of a pain in the ass was to draw. Then I look at my achey hand and decide not to think about it too hard. Perhaps one day.
Any project of mine that is not mentioned above is one hundred percent dead. It's never coming back. It's never, ever getting finished.
It's dead.
And that's all I have for you today, folks! I hope that you're having a good start to the year. Despite my issues, I am.
I hope that you excuse typos and weird sentences in this post. While dictating is easy, editing requires two hands. I had to go easy on that.
Cheers!
