After having a horrendous Christmas and a rotten start to the New Year, it's given me a lot of hard thinking to do. I decided to make some Resolutions I'm going to stick to:
In real life, I'm going to leave my one job and find something that is steady with a good healthcare plan.
I'm going to get my body in better shape, something I was already doing, but I'm going to continue and be serious about it.
I'm going to pay off one credit card by the end of the year.
I'm going to build up my savings.
I'm going to continue to become a better artist and storyteller.
I'm going to post my comic, Stray, online in some way or some form, be it just one page or one short story arc.
Yeah, that's a lot of stuff, but I meant every bit of it. Artwise, I think I'm capable of posting something even though my skills are nowhere near where I want them to be. However, I think I'm at a point where I can tell a good story with what skills I have. But, I MUST take myself seriously, which I have a hard time doing. I must respect my art and stories and tell them in a way that I would want a professional to treat them.
In real life, I MUST respect myself enough to take my life seriously and stop playing it so safe, and stop being so scared of "What Ifs" and so on. To survive is to risk. To risk and succeed is freedom. To fail is just to learn. And with God with me, I know I will be all right, no matter what.









The best part about committing to submit art more frequently, or to work on your comic is the frequency in which you draw. Which will improve your art and your story telling abilities on the go.
So power to ya, when you start this path it's going to start getting easier.
