My Plan: Step 1 – Make A Plan
Feb21
I got nothing. Neither a reason nor an excuse. I’m gradually coming back around to comics, and finding it simultaneously interesting, fulfilling, and deeply depressing. I don’t know how to say it any better than that, but there it is.
I’m right on the edge. I don’t know what comes next!
We’ll be here no matter what you decide! On your terms not ours! 🙂
Just take it step by step. Most of us have been there. It‘ll get better eventually.
We like the artwork!
Yes! I’ll take the small steps!
Well I support your choice in the future
Hope you’re still doing okay. Hang in there!
Guy, take however long you need… Last year was a mess for everyone and this year hasn’t really been much better… This is one of those years that you need to just ease back into the swing of things.. Most of us will still be here, just go when you feel ready…
Dude, it’s all good. Thank you for what you’ve done, and when it brings you joy, do it again. If not, it’s still all good. Take care, enjoy what you can!
Thank you, that’s very kind of you to say. It’s about 50-50 responsibilities vs. motivation. Well, to be fair 70-30. But I feel like, for so long, I was really motivated on this and felt confident and looked on this as something I really loved. And in the last year, it became a lot less so. And when it’s a chore for me, it’s not going to be any good for you either. I want to finish this story but I want to do it right. And frankly keeping a business running in bizarre times, combined with the loss of someone exceptionally close to me last year, combined with a number of friends whose support I really had come to rely on suddenly turning hostile on me – it can really suck the joy out of a thing like this. And I want to give you the best I can, and if I can’t I feel like just finishing won’t be worth it enough to make the effort worthwhile.
Dude Hope things get better miss your work.
Life can be hard and sometimes it can be difficult to pull ones self up and continue on.
I just hope that things will Turn up better soon.
Thank you, I really do appreciate it. I don’t know what it is. Midlife crisis? Writer’s Block? Working 12-hour-days to keep my life together? Well okay that last one is probably most of it. But there are other things at play that I’m always holding back on because it’s no good being public about it. That’s for emos and wankers fishing for sympathy, and the world has a rough grievances that, if we could harness them like gasoline, we’d all be living in floating cities on Jupiter by now. Sooner or later I’ll get my act together. For now keeping things as they are takes most of what I’ve got, so I have to do what’s in front of me.
Take a page from Otto von Bismarck; “Wait until circumstances present themselves to formulate an advantageous plan.” 😀

Hey, Mr. Average. You do what you NEED. We, your loyal fans, will be waiting. Take as much time as you need to recharge, rest, and recuperate. YOU are worth the wait.
I am surviving. Hope you are also.
To whatever extent I’m able!
