Look, I made a thing like I promised! I even jazzed it up a little compared to the panel in the comic :).

I'll try and put up a wallpaper for this month today as well! I spent all day chauffeuring around a tortoise someone put in my yard.

Okay, you guys have already seen Page 255 in its proto-phase, but now you get to see it mostly done and also Page 256 :D. I'm still ahead for next next week's pages, so as long as I keep up this pace, maybe I'll actually have a buffer?

Guess who's about to fall asleep at her desk? ME. I AM. I'm so sleepy but this page is very large.

MULTIPLE IMAGES MOTHERFUCKERS. Note, you guys are now seeing an extra page ahead per week until I screw this up and get off schedule. So far so good~! And now that my birthday is over, I should be posting a bit more often :)

I'm going to make a wallpaper out of that last panel here soon :).
Also, I'm aaalmost done with page 253, and even though it doesn't go up til next Tuesday, I'll try and put it up here in the next few days. And then after that, hopefully you guys will get to peek ahead for awhile :)
I need to make breakfast, but that requires getting up, so I'll use my brain muscles instead of my leg muscles to tell you more about writing dialog or whatever.
Okay! So. Dialog. Hm. A lot of people have pointed out that my dialog is very natural sounding, which is great that it comes across that way! It's important to me that everyone sounds like a person! I don't think it's really too hard to get more natural sounding dialog, so I'll try and walk you through my process as best I can. I admi...

Well, someone's getting overloaded.
This page won't actually be posted til the second week of July, so you guys are going to be getting pages a little extra ahead of schedule for awhile :)

What is this? Tomorrow's page extra large and early? Can't be.

I still have to finish drawing the first panel's background :P

Needs a bit more work tomorrow, but it's coming along faster than last week's pages lol.

Raeven's comment from previous post: This is one of the reasons I'm so afraid to be publishing as I go. I have the full first draft of my novel, which is really serving as an outline, and I'm more or less live publishing the rewriting. I don't think I've contradicted or cornered myself yet, but the fear is Totally there.
Okay, so here's kind of how I handle that issue. Basically, you do need to have a larger plot structure in mind, but you use your characters to determ...
2017-06-22 18:29:20 +0000 UTC View PostThis was in response to NiWo21k's question about not writing yourself into a corner if your story evolves with the characters' choices, and I figured I should post it here just in case people miss it as part of the comments from yesterday:
A good question! Really, if you're writing based on a character's reactions, then they'll always do what you expect them to do in any given situation, and if they do the opposite, it needs to be a big deal. I think it helps if you have a gener...
2017-06-22 14:47:48 +0000 UTC View PostOkay! I'm gonna try and collect my Night Thoughts into something coherent for you guys, because it seemed like most of the feedback I got about writing-related posts went towards writing people that feel real. I'll try and do a series of these so I don't get overwhelmed and ramble too much because I do that.
FIRST! Here is the hierarchy you need to remember:
Characters > Plot > World building
You might disagree with me. I'm gonna say that you're wrong, so don't bother. CHARAC...

Now you can see that 3 wolf moon shirt in better detail, as well as Elias's smitten face in the last panel :)
2017-06-22 01:35:44 +0000 UTC View Post
I need you to understand...like most of the effort in this page went into redrawing Elias's stupid face on that last panel like 10 times. Because it's important that it conveys all his stupid feels.

Is it really 11pm? Damn. This week's pages took foreeeeevvveer.

Well...this will take forever to ink, but whatev. I had to celebrate somehow.

This one is probably easier to see at this size lol

Mmmmm details and stuff. Tomorrow's page will definitely benefit from the larger resolution, because it's got a lot of tiny details O_O.

This page is brought to you by my dumb joke about the mall having so many damn places to get soft pretzels. Also, EIGHT FUCKING PANELS. It's my own fault. I rearranged this page to sell my pretzel gag.

Just inks today! I got some colors in on the next page, but these pages took me so long, it just wasn't gonna happen :p.

You know what'd be great? Being able to upload multiple images at one time on Patreon. CAN'T IMAGINE. Anyway, I'll be uploading wallpapers as I find things I can make into wallpapers :). This is 1920x1080 which is the most common size, theoretically.
