Thinking of de-prioritising comics...

So, bear with me here, this isn't the end of anything, I just literally want to talk about it. - When I say "de-prioritising" I just mean removing the weekly promises so that I can return to them as-and-when I'm able with a lot less stress, because there will be no deadlines.

I have a very nasty habit of abusing myself with unattainable deadlines. It's something I've tried to stop doing for years, but for whatever the reason, I keep doing it. I think I'm one of those "people pleasers" who speaks before they think, then tries to keep up with my own BS.

You know that bit in Mr. Bean the movie where he's panicking, trying to clean that painting he's wrecked? You've no idea how much that looks like me trying to finish a project on time.

There are other benefits this, such as projects not being rushed, but also it means I get to be an artist again! So I can enjoy foruming for suggestions, and just making shit on a whim. Which means are lot more of everything you guys like. The shapeshifting or muscly fans can just suggest stuff, and I have way more free time to just make it.

The truth is that when I make the comics, they're actually made in a very short space of time (thanks, ADHD!) but 90% of the rest of the production time is trying to GET ME to work for that very short space of time (gee, THANKS, adhd.) so surely, it would make sense if I stopped giving a shit, make whatever the hell I want, make whatever the hell you want, and get out the comics when I can.

That sounds like a good idea, doesn't it? I'd rather earn my living that way, and I feel like I can make more of what people specifically like more often.

I'm not shitting on the main-canon stuff, I love the main canon-stuff, but we all love the random shit, right? No matter what you're gig is here, whether you're a shapeshifting kinda feller, a loony-boob individual, a muscular maniac or a great big fat magical bastard! - I'd rather go back to being an artist, and make the comics when I can.

Does this make sense, and does anyone like this idea? - Bear in mind, I have to talk to you guys about this, because these are decision that affect my living. I personally feel like it would be better, but I need to know that it's not going to piss anyone off.

Excuse the blabbering, I think this is a good idea, but I've no idea how to present it concisely!

All the best, folks!
