Just Looking Comics

The comic I promised for today is going to be late, possibly not until the end of the week or next. This was supposed to be a very important comic for me it was one I’ve known the story to for months, I’ve known the exact layout for days, and I can’t begin to express how much I was looking forward to posting it. Not because it is particularly funny or anything, in fact there really isn’t much of a joke, but because it had a personal meaning for me. Sometimes you do a comic because you can’t wait to make people laugh, or because you have an idea, but sometimes it’s for you and that is what tonight’s was going to be.

The comic was nearly done when my computer crashed, long story short it’s gone and there isn’t a way to get it back. I’m hesitant to ever say something I draw is perfect, I’m not a great artist, but this was something that was exactly what I wanted it to be. There is no starting over, it can’t just be redone. I don’t know if people reading this will be able to really understand not just why I say there is no going back or starting over. It seems like the simple answer, but having this happen does something to your drive. It not only hurts to lose something you spent a lot of time on and were proud of, but you lose that focus and desire to even try again. That’s not to say I’m quitting, I’m just discouraged and forced to write a blog mere moments after it’s hard to be positive.

Anyway I will keep you posted when a comic goes up. Until then to everyone who is currently feeling let down, I’m sorry and I know exactly how you feel.
