Day 697 of 365 More.

Where does the time go?

Lately, I’ve been waiting later and later to start even thinking about 365. And a lot of the time I am so busy I really can’t come up with anything interesting.

Especially on days which I’m working on the comic, which is really a minimum of about four nights a week. I just end up coming home from work and drawing, writing or coloring all day. Next thing i know, it’s like a quarter to 11 and I haven’t even thought about my shot. So I take something quick and get back to work and the next thin I know its quarter after two and I haven’t posted yet.

Honestly, I’m loving it. I have wanted to do a comic since I was seven years old, and even though Hellcats isn’t as popular as I’d like it to be, its still been a blast and pretty rewarding.

I just wish other parts of my life didn’t have to suffer so much to make it happen. Seriously, if I could just sell more copies of the book or get like a few hundred daily viewers looking at the banner ads, then maybe someday I could make enough money that that could be my day job.

And I wouldn’t end up with 365 photos like this.

*sigh*

    It tells a story. Not everyday has to be fancy. We all have our creative days and our blah days. Such is life.

    Damn, almost at 700 I see. Damn we some old farts 🙂

    The time goes into a histogram.

    Yo, man, I feel where you’re coming from. I’m not having a hard time with my 365 shots because I just started 25 days ago, and I have more time on my hands than usual. But I’m feeling you on artist tip. The struggle to make what we do profitable so that we can continue to do what we love. That’s real freedom to me. Needless to say, hang in there anyway. Your work in this project is very inspiring to me.

    @Mikey aka DaSkinnyBlackMan: I guess I was just feeling mopey that day. Yeah, 700 came and went. They hardly even seem like milestones anymore.

    @shockingbird: heh… I’m not sure how that would work.

    @lrayholly: heh. It’s just instinct. I already have the disease.

    @Bakari: thanks.

    @elvenenoo2.0: yes it is.
