The first new question-as-update. So, I drew a load of these since September. And I knew I wanted to work a new style but wasn’t quite sure what. So I said, well, just start drawing; it’s Scribs. Whatever you do is fine, you’ll probably come to something you’re happy with, just draw until you find something.

Which means this one looks like crap to me and I’m really itching to do it over. Not like it’d be hard to do, I’m just trying to fight against my fussy nature a bit and let it be. It’s not until three or four weeks from now you’ll see comics where I’m happy with the style.

Except for the next six or so, because I redrew them anyway. sigh.

I kinda feel like I cheated myself out of an intro fanfare. Now that I think I’m finally down to a text updates format on Scribs that I’m happy with, I wish I had it up last week so I coulda started with a big ol’ HI! and all that. But I’ve integrated my blog onto the Scribs page, as I’ve said, and I think this’ll do several things at once: get more action on the comic than just the comic; get me writing in my blog more, and give me a relatively lower-hassle way of putting updates here. But it still took some learning and programming, so my geek ancestors are appeased. FOR NOW.

Getting a bunch of traffic, but not much interaction yet. Though I’m basically getting the traffic by buying it. I gave myself a $300 budget for ads, which I’ve only gotten a third of the way through so far. But really I’m hoping for some reader engagement, because I’m thinking that’s going to be how I get enough ideas to keep this up. I think probably I spent the last three years storing up Scribs ideas in my head, but when I do it on my own, the passive idea creation happens at a slower rate than my preferred update schedule. I possibly gotta get more stimulus from outside my head to be able to maintain it.

The idea of a separate comments section for each comic just wasn’t sitting well with me, so I figured out how to integrate my SpinnWebe blog on to my Scribs page. So YES BRAIN I COULD’VE JUST WENT WITH WORDPRESS/COMICPRESS IN THE FIRST PLACE SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP.

More things I want to say here but I spent too much time trying to push to get this done before I went to bed, so zzzzzz
