Burned the midnight oil
Jun. 21st, 2017 02:03 pmIt's not every week that I stay up past 10 and get some project work done. Because of my daytime job, my body has been trained to feel sleepy around 7:30. Of course, that doesn't guarantee that I'll get to sleep after 8pm. Worse yet, my body keeps this up even during my weekends, when I can spare a couple more hours to doing my "real job."
But I did it. I had a webcomic that needed to be posted on Wednesday, and I got that page done with 15 minutes to spare. I like to have the pages scheduled to post 15 minutes after midnight. But I've been remiss in keeping up with the buffer, so every week I have to rush to get the pages done.
I'm hoping that the upcoming intermission/hiatus will allow me to organize all my projects. I'd like a schedule that allows me to focus on the important projects and real life without losing my mind.
Here's the plan so far:
I need to finish this page for Friday. Now to look up references for a Zippo lighter.

Here's the plan so far:
- Finish this current chapter, draw intermission comics and material to post on the Tumblr; keep this up for the time it takes to finish the next chapter.
- Thumbnail and sketch the next chapter of Stincorp.
- Install the new Grawlix webcomic CMS because I'm tired of bloated Wordpress.
- Upload the next chapter once it's completed.
- Repeat the whole thing, using the 1 1/2 or 2 months to draw the next chapter, take a little more time to draw an plan Broken Like Me.
