Looking ahead a little bit, I'm considering doing Fightober next month for the Fighter/Collector tiers. If you're not already familiar with it, it's an art challenge where artists create daily fight-inspired work throughout the month of October based on the word of the day e.g. dazed, pain, crush, defeat etc. Some people follow an semi-official list, others make up their own. But here's the catch, if I do this, I'll need to pause the comics for the month of October. In return, you'll get one or more updates each day based on the Fightober word of the day. So submission holds, boxing, wrestling, Stephanie Hawk...whatever the word of the day inspires.If I'm going to do this, I want to make sure that an overwhelming majority of you support it i.e. 60%, 70%.... Should I do it?

Do you have a link to the semi-official list of words of the day?

I think it could be fun.... its a nice opportunity to flex a bunch of your settings, characters, their fighting styles and outfits! i could sacrifice one month of stories for that.

The rules say you can do as few words as you want, so I recommend you do the words that inspire you and focus on your regular comics on days when you don’t feel inspired by the word.

Rules, schmoolz! If I'm going to do this, I'd want to make an earnest attempt at all of them as sort of a creative pressure relieve valve. More seriously, lately I've been spending at least 40 hours a week on comics, and knowing my own habits/workflow, context switching between Fightober and regular comics would result in me getting less done overall then had I focused on just one or the other.

👍Yeah, the main reason I'm considering it is because it'd be a chance to be creative beyond the limits of my stories.

That’s fine with me. Do whatever works best for you.
