Hi everyone
Hi everyone. It's been a while so I thought I'd give you a quick update about how things are going. I know I've been quiet, but I'm still around and I visit the journal everyday to check on how things are going with you guys.
My life has been busy, filled with good things and not-so-good things, but I won't go into any detail at this moment. Fortunately, I still have work. Because of the economy, however, my department's on a hiring freeze; but at this point, we have many projects to accomplish but only so many people to do them, so I've been working overtime since the beginning of this year. Too much work is better than none, I guess, but that's the main reason for why I am not progressing along with my extracurricular activities as fast as I'd like.
I've been working on my script for Muniyoots whenever I get the time and slowly but gradually it is coming together, though I have much work to accomplish even before that pen touchdowns onto the paper. Aside from the fact that other aspects of my life have kept me from going full force on it, I'm overall happy so far with my approach to putting the piece together; however, it seems to me that I'm doing it in a manner hardly anybody else would do -- for a webcomic at least. I sometimes wonder if I'm just going about it completely wrong. Overall, I really don't know how it's all going to turn out in the long run, but I guess I just have to pursue my dream in a way that suits me. And patience is key here.
I've found that as I grow older I've become more and more patient about putting something together before presenting it to the world. Years back, I'd be chomping at the bit to tell you my new ideas and post up new pictures. Nowadays, I'm okay with letting the ideas incubate and become (hopefully) better. I am also better at resisting the urge to work on some "side project." Pretty much, Muniyoots is the only personal comic project on my mind at the moment, and the ability to focus on that alone has done me much good.
I hope that my "settling down" doesn't mean that I've become more lazy or less passionate, but rather that I only want to give you a grand product when the time warrants. It definitely won't be for a couple of months.
Until then, I'll try to pop in every now and then and let you know how I'm doing.
