DotS:MMM news -March '24 edition
Hi hello— DotS:MMM is undergoing massive story cuts behind the scenes because it sorta snowballed into too much for me to handle, and currently too overwhelming for what's supposed to be a mini-series This editing is sorta eating up my time for actually drawing any more pages, but I'm glad I've had this break from producing pages to see just how utterly overwhelming the project as a whole has become With the current amount of pages and chapters I've had scripted, it's over 170 pages long That's waaayyyyyy too much for just a mini series, so I'm cutting whole chapters out, and I will have to change the titles of the chapters that remain Once I finish cleaning it all up, I'll share with you guys the scrapped chapters and some of my original plans for each one! Comic's still well and alive! There's a lot going on behind the scenes! In personal news, I'm looking to get into a trade school since finding employment has been a complete nightmare for me. I'm hoping that some
Extension upon postponing
Hey gang! Quick journal this time Frankly I have not felt up to drawing and forcing myself into a grind. I need to pace myself and not feel like this is an obligation. I started feeling like I had to make pages to keep up the pace and not disappoint, but that started to really ebb at my enjoyment of making this comic This is my hobby, and not my job. Nobody pays me to make these. I make this because I like it and want to tell a story. Something I have to constantly remind myself, despite the pressure of disappointing my readers with my inconsistency. These days I draw in bursts and end up losing my stamina because I become emotionally overwhelmed My energy is still fickle. I'm bombarded with overwhelming negativity at home from various sources, including personal stress and depression caused by my current life situation. What I make to decompress shouldn't be a stresser either I'll continue to chip away at finishing these pages for DotS:MMM Part One, but it will be at my own pace. I'll post again once I feel ready and satisfied enough with how many pages I have in hand. Deadlines stress me out and kill my motivation to draw. Again it makes me feel obligated to do this stuff, to make it instead of just being something I enjoy and have fun with Also Orpheus decided to worm his way in, so now I have to rewrite some scripts to as well fix a tremendous continuity error that Orpheus has come in to correct. This man makes me rewrite everything, I swear omg You'll see what I mean in later parts of DotS:MMM Thank you guys as always for your patience! 💖

Postponing DotS:MMM pages for this month!
Heyo! Quick update! I've been mega stressed over deadlines and IRL things and fell behind hard on making pages. So for my sake as well the comic's, I'm postponing pages for this month (October) until I can replenish my stock at my own pace and preferably resume posting in November! If you've been following my Tumblr, I've basically been knocked out of commission for the past couple of months due to an infected injury on my toe taking all my attention, getting that taken care of (bye bye toenail), and then the impending doom of taking a permit test just last week. That on top of a bunch of other IRL things going on too, it's been a lot for me. I still have some more driving-related things coming up in preparation to acquire a proper license, which has been haunting me quite a bit. I have un-addressed trauma with cars, so this is a frightening thing for me to face. Wish me luck, strength, and courage! I'll need it! Life aside, I'll be slowly chipping away at pages and will do my best

Come to think of it, redesigns aren't that unusual. Take a look at Sonic, for example. He's gone through more redesigns than I can mention on the spot... and Link too! Also, Ash Ketchum has a new look about him each generation as well. As far as I'm concerned, redesigns are (or should be) perfectly fine~
