I like instant satisfaction. Its why I love cooking but hate baking. It’s why I prefer fast food to sit down restaurants. It’s why I sleep in instead of work out. I like things here and now, and if that isn’t how it is, I let Future Me worry about it. So, it’s literally painful working on this comic. I want to share my whole story NOW!
Yesterday, during lunch, in one hour I wrote the outline and layout for an entire volume of my comic. I was all excited, I was yes, it sounds great, its going to look great. Its going to be my favorite volume. But when I counted how many pages it was going to be, I almost cried. In one hour, I planned out three months worth of drawing, shading, posting, and editing. And I’m only three pages into my first volume! I won’t get to this volume until winter, at least!. Oh god!
And all I can do is sit down, hold tight, and keep up with it. For someone who likes instant satisfaction, there are just some things you can’t take a short cut with. This needs to be done right. This storytelling will take time, and for every ounce of patience I give it, I will receive the same amount of patience from my readers. If they are willing to wait, so shall I.
The whole while, I’ll be shivering with anticipation.
