I suppose I have been neglecting this thing a bit, haven't I?

It's been a lot of work to keep the comic going at some level that resembles quality, as well as keeping up with the school and Rotaract stuff. I've been elected as the president of the club for next year, and I can already tell that it's going to be a ton of work. Thing is, at this point I don't think I could stand to be involved any more unless I was in charge. But - on the good side, I'm not in charge of minutes any more, since my position as Secretary has been replaced by somebody else, I have an extremely energetic vice president, and our kickass social events coordinator has chosen to stay on, and she has help. I'm a bit worried because I'm going to be losing some of our past presidents to graduation soon, but what can you do?

I'm taking on a huge workload next year, with Rotaract, this comic, and my Senior Thesis, and so, what I'd like to do is up my page production over the summer to two or hree pages a week, and either :
a) increase the frequency of posting
b) Build up a hell of a buffer to deal properly with the school year.

My worries are twofold: One is that at the current rate of posting, the story is moving much too slowly. There is a lot to get through, and it's going to take YEARS  to finish a this rate.  My second fear is that if I up the post rate during the summer, and then drop it during the school year, I'll be tempted to drop it even more as I get buisier as an excuse. If that happens, the chance of the comic dying goes up by a significant amount.

It's been 5 months, and I'm not even through chapter two yet - in fact I'm not even at the point in the story that I  thought I would be by the end of chapter two, in part because of the aforementioned difficulties with Felix.

So thank you Bergs, for poking me to post some more. I'll try not to neglect this too much.
 

Alright, so here's the deal. From the start, this comic has been a collaboration between myself and the previously mentioned friend (and housemate, I might add) of mine, Jia.

Unfortunately, about a week or so ago, My housemates and I were informed that she was pulling out of our lease, thus depriving us of one friend, $350 worth of rent a month (Which none of us could afford to replace with funds for our own pockets),  and her fifth of the utilities (including the previous month's). Without going into too many details, suffice to say that the situation was handled extremely poorly by all parties involved ( Except perhaps our landlord, who is a fantastic, wonderful man, who has saved all of our asses on this occasion)

This has put me in a somewhat sticky situation, in balancing my desire to continue with this project, and my extreme annoyance of her irresponsibility in this matter of living conditions. As of yet, she has not expressed any desire to me to either attempt to continue the comic as before (which may prove difficult, as many of my housemates no longer wish to see her within the walls of our house), or to discontinue her involvement in the project. If necessary, I WILL continue it on my own, in a somewhat altered form, as I will no longer have her unique input on aspects of plot and character. Most of the entire first act of the comic has been plotted out In fairly succinct detail, however the second two acts have not been.

Until this has been resolved, unfortunately all comic drawing activities will be on Hiatus. I will continue to post ideas to the blog however, depending on what direction things go from here.
