My new way of doing things.

I make comics. I also make some videos on the side.

For a long while, I've been almost exclusively focused on my art, which is fine and dandy because if I'm gonna make money off of anything someday, it's going to be my art, not adsense money from making youtube videos. Granted, the reason I haven't tried making money off my work so far is because, well, I'd go to jail because I feature properties that are not mine. These are FAN comics. That said, I do have one original idea that I want to try putting on the shelves someday, and all these other comics are practice I'm doing to improve myself until I feel that I'm finally ready to take the plunge.

But anyway, I've made my art a priority for a long time now, and it's going to stay that way..... on most days. See, between the hours it takes to draw new pages in the evening and the hours it takes to color them the next morning, I don't have that much time and energy left over for making videos.... not if I wanna spend any time stepping outside the house and having a life or anything like that... so there are many days where I put my video projects on the backburner because I'm already all spent from working on my art on that same day, and I just end up procrastinating because I can't do both of these things at the same time.

But I also don't want to spend too much time making videos because, well, my biggest priority is developing as an artist because that's my true calling. And by making 2 pages a day, I can finish twice as many stories in that much time. That's why I work so frantically on my art, to finish as many of my ideas as I possibly can in my time here. So yeah, I don't want to let my other projects get in the way of what matters most to me. But, even so, I need to set SOME time aside for videos and other such things. I think I've found a good compromise.

Here's what my schedule is going to be from now on. Monday-Friday, I will upload two pages per day on average, and on the weekends, I will edit videos. Ten pages a week doesn't sound so bad, right? On some days, I might whip up a 3rd page or upload something quick and simple on the weekends, or edit a video for a little bit on a week day just because, but overall, this is how I'm going to manage my time and work from now on. It'll be a good change of pace to keep me from feeling burnt out from constantly working on art, and I can get other things done each week.
