Comic's not dead! 💜I've just been having some of the roughest months of ma life and haven't had much time to work on anything outside of commissions xwx*The characters of this comic sequence are all consenting adults*

-------------------------------------------------------------------------Bit of real talk here...

While this has been a huge passion project and I really wanna keep working on it for as long as i'm able to, life keeps getting increasingly more expensive and the support I currently get, while highly appreciated, is not quite enough for me to pursue something like this for much longer :cI get that my lack of output is the main thing that affects the support but there is only so much I can do with my current situation (chronic arm/shoulder pain).

I'm having some insecurities lately... feeling like I'm biting more than I can chew with such a "grand" vision.I'm doing all this worldbuilding and shit but I'm afraid the story is moving so slowly that it's just not getting as much attention as I'd like to... and that's nobody's fault but my own, really. Maybe if I were to let this die and dedicate myself to smaller stories or 3-4 page long comics of only smut, my audience would grow even more and I'd be able to live more comfortablyBut then again, this story has come so far and I wouldn't want all this buildup to end up in... nothing.I really don't know what to do at this point.I guess for now I'll keep going with it for as long as I can. If I'm unable to continue, I'll let everyone know and we'll see how we move forward from there.Staying positive for the most part, at least! Happy vibes y'all 💜

It sounds like you're all over the place and life isn't really helping. You're working so hard to keep your head on straight. Don't lose faith, you've already come so far, maybe it's time to start setting a schedule for yourself? Make sure to have a day or two dedicated to just yourself and what makes you really happy. You got your fans who love you, they'll understand. As for this comic, just make sure you pace yourself, one page, one chapter at a time, it'll work itself out eventually. You got this!!^^

Very impressive job on these comic pages. I can't wait to see what happens in the next comic pages when they're ready to be released.

I really like the details you gave this comic so far. Even if the plot moves slower like that, it is the right amount of built up one needs to fully get involved with the story and it's world. Simple smut is plenty out there. But your comic shows that you are more creative than that. So I would find it sad if you just rushed things through now or worse, let it die unfinished. Take your time for the rest as you need it. If you want to do some stuff inbetween that's alright too. Just don't let pressure destroy your ideas and dreams. Happy vibes back at ya ❤️

"This geass...I gladly accept." But for real, you take what time you need. Yeah, it's been a slow burn. But it's the kind that has shown itself to be worth the wait. My support isn't going away over a thing like time alone. You need time to cook, you cook.

I absolutely loved the world-building in this story and don't mind if it takes a while to build up. Could put this on hiatus if you need to focus on some other smaller projects but I would certainly hope this story come to finish one day. Stay positive!

SilverEdge

Thank you kxt I feel like I'm constantly going on hiatus though. Not officially but I always have to take breaks from the comic to keep working on comms lol What I've been thinking is, finishing this chapter and then going on a real hiatus, then, switch to a visual novel format so that I have to draw less and fit more of the story and world building more easily ^^ that's my current plan of action at least

SilverEdge

That's really reassuring to hear, Exiled! I'm always afraid that the slow burn is way too slow but I really want the actual "downfall" of the prince to be a big moment with a lot of buildup I'll keep going with renewed inspo. Reading these comments is really helping my self esteem 💜

SilverEdge

Thank you Hikaru, this is exactly the kind of stuff I needed to hear 💜 It feels pretentious as shit to say it but like, yeah, I want this series to be more than just "simple smut" but that also makes a lot of people uninterested in a story that takes long to get to the point, or at least that's what I think... It's scary to work on a slow burn story. I'm constantly afraid people will lose interest or my writing just isn't good enough. But comments like this really put those fears to rest Thank you, really uwu

SilverEdge

Thanks Elias! They will keep coming, regardless of how long it takes between them 💜

SilverEdge

Thank you Leo. Yeah I guess sometimes I let this stuff just get to me Like you said, life has been ALL OVER THE PLACE lately. Happy stuff has been happening but there's also been a shit ton of expenses... I really wish I could make art without the looming fear of capitalism creeping over my shoulders -.- I was in a really bad place mentally yesterday. Today I can think more clearly and, you're right, I just have to continue pacing myself and taking the required breaks. It's easy to get carried away and just work myself to the point of burnout. I really need to avoid that. Thank you again for the encouragement ^^ it really helps keep the spirits up!

Hikaru Ginno

Glad to help you. I've read plenty of smut over the years and stories like yours are best enjoyed with a nice built up. At least in my opinion. Even the shorter ones had a nice development of the cast and their setting before their TF/Corruption and with all the teases inbetween you def. don't make it boring either. Quite the opposite. Once it's finished all who get to read it in it's entirety, have time to "enjoy" themselves till the "climax" ;3

Work out a schedule that you can rely on, no exceptions!! Your time, safety, and your mental health come first and foremost!!

Take all the time you need and make sure to keep yourself safe. If that means the comic has to take a hiatus or break or just takes longer than anticipated, that's ok. There is no use if you rush or push yourself and bury yourself in work or mess just to please others. Please make sure to look after yourself, no matter how much time and other resource it takes. I love these pages btw, big fan of how you draw the expressions
