I know I should probably focus on a couple of characters, a couple of story threads, and write the way you’re supposed to. I should do things the way everyone else does so that people won’t write essays about how I ramble around and generally suck at webcomics, but I can’t. I’m too interested in this little world I made and the people who populate it. I want to write arcs for everyone and if I had infinite time and energy I would. I’d write for a thousand thousand years because I’m invested in my world. If nothing else I think that’s what ultimately salvages what I make day to day. You can tell when a creator checks out. Meanwhile I’m over here thinking about what I would write about Neil if I had time. I bet most of you don’t even remember who he is. I won’t say so that the most dedicated can dunk on everyone else by knowing. That should be fun for at least one of you. I could probably write an entire comic just about Jessica and Professor Keene. In fact, I would if I could, but even I know I have to reign myself in at least a little bit. I don’t have infinite time and I do feel at least some need to give lip service to sticking with the main cast. Of course I keep slowly expanding the main cast, but in fairness I do have a thing for expansion.
My work probably won’t be remembered even 5 years after I die, but the people who do still remember will at least say “He fucking lived for that shit.”

Take care out there kids. I’ll see you Monday.
