November Check In

Hi Friends

Hope you are all doing well. Truly. What a rough almost 2 years it's been with this pandemic. I hope you are all healthy and hanging in there, mentally and physically.

As a creator working with a promised schedule of 4 posts a week (2 for The Bed and Breakfast, 2 for BE Revenge), I sometimes feel the stress when I hit bottlenecks in my production of these stories.

The bottlenecks can be illness - a couple weeks ago I had a really bad cough and cold. Not covid or the flu, thankfully. Just your run of the mill cold. But it really knocked me out of commission for a good week. I just couldn't (and shouldn't) stay awake at night to produce content.

Another bottleneck I ran into the past month was with growing boobs. Growing boobs a bottleneck? Yes, yes indeed. I reached the point in The Bed and Breakfast where Sharon's boobs started growing. And I really wanted to show not just her growing breasts, but the strain and stretch of her clothing against her growing body. That is after all why I started learning Daz in the Spring. But I wasn't pleased with my results. I mean - I was pleased months ago when I did tests. But as I've leveled up my skills and watched other creators, I wanted better. Thanks to fellow artists Khooza and BeetleBomb encouragement, tips, and advice I added zbrush into my toolset. It allows the morphing and manipulation of clothing or boobies or anything else. That took me about two weeks to learn and to get to the point where I was pleased with Sharon's boobs overflowing her bra. It looks incredible! Wait until you see her in her advanced stages. :)

The other big bottleneck I sometimes hit is inspiration and motivation. This was a big challenge with BE Revenge as I hit a certain point around panel 30 where I wrapped up the first arc, and I just wasn't inspired with what to do next in the story. So BE Revenge sat there for a good month not being worked on (thankfully I had been ahead of schedule so I had that wiggle room to go idle).  But this past week I found my creative muse again for BE Revenge and I've been going pretty hard at it, not even touching The Bed and Breakfast for the past week.

At this moment I've got Bed and Breakfast fully completed through a January 1st publishing. And BE Revenge is completed through to Dec 20th, though I've got another 3 weeks of content on top of that which I am actively working on and expect to be finished with by end of the week.

I like to have a one month buffer of content scheduled out. To allow for these bottlenecks. As a fan of breast expansion comics, I can get disappointed when creators publish sporadically or wait weeks between updates. I get things go on in lives. So this isn't a criticism of others. I just mean to say that for myself, when I put on the creator hat, it's important to me that I have content published on the regular schedule.  So when that buffer gets under a month I feel the stress.

Right now, with the bottlenecks resolved, I'm doing very well with my schedule and I'm enjoying the process. And I have a good balance with the limited time I get each night to create. I wrapped up my 2nd playthrough of God of War and am getting back into Days Gone which I never beat. Do some gaming, do some BE comics, head to bed. Good schedule.

Anyway - just a peak behind the curtain at my process and what's going on over here. I'm having a ton of fun with these comics and am excited for you to see the growth parts now that we are nearing the end of the story set up. I think a future comic I may just jump straight into the BE. We'll see. I appreciate your feedback. It inspires and motivates me.   Thanks as always for your support. Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate.
