Well after several weeks of not updating this blog, I finally have something to blog about. Unfortunately its nothing really celebratory. In fact some may even consider it self-depracating, but cartoonist occassionally enjoy bemoaning their short comings and today, I vent.
So this week's The Super Senior (and all of the comics) had been posted late; and when I update late it really annoys me. Funny thing is when other people's website's are updated late it doesn't bother me so much, if at all--but the point is I was late. To compound matters, I did a rush job/bad job on the this week's comics. Sure I have ideas back logged just in case, for stretches of writer's block, but having ideas that can be easily drawn and colored, not so many. Now I can detail how I produce a comic, but to make a long story short, my personal schedule didn't allow for a full commitment to the drawing board for this week. And that sucks, because I pride myself on consistent updates (ignore the fact Toadyhog didn't get published for April 1).
So I forced an update. Crappy comics were made and crappy comics got published. And really the ideas are pretty solid, but execution is everything. I didn't get a chance to give any really thought to the ideas. And A once weekly update schedule doesnt't allow for bad weeks--that could be a lost potential reader! But live and learn right? After all there's always next week.
