Soooooooo, yeahhhh. That went completely not as planned. I thought losing my job would turn into a whirlwind of productivity for me, at least for the comic. Obviously not.
Apparently I’m one of those people who get more done the less free time they have. With basically nothing to do for 9 months, I found myself in a perpetual cycle of procrastination. After all, I could start the next day and cram hours worth of drawing in whenever I felt like it, which, of course, never actually happened. Sure, I finished planning out Episode 3 and even got myself acquainted with the new hardware/software, somewhat. The rest just never materialized. I did watch a shitload of TV though, and finished the crap out of some video games. Man, what the hell else did I do.
Anyway, I did manage to find a new job (right in the nick of time) and it’s actually in somewhat of a creative capacity (which is a welcome change). The inspiration therein, combined with my aforementioned appreciation for time I don’t have, finds me here, setting the stage for Tuesday’s strip.
Yep, I’m back at it, and I’m pretty psyched. I’m not making any promises of timely or even somewhat regular/existent updates, I’m just starting small and riding this current wave where it takes me. Like I said (last year, oof), Episode 3 is going to be a long one, so I’m not going to waste any more time with the jibber jabber.
