I did not achieve the beginning of page 11 last night. In fact, I posted page 10 REALLY late ... around 10 or 11 pm. That might as well be a day late.
I suppose I should define my goals before I talk about failing to achieve them.
My short-term goals are pretty simple. Produce three pages a week, and update on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays on time (midnight). Don't sacrifice quality. And most importantly, always keep going. Against all temporary bouts of doubt or lack of inspiration, push forward.
Long-term goals are more difficult to quantify.
I suppose you could say there are medium-term goals and then long-term goals. Medium-term is, finish the "Suffering & Death" story arc, which will be around eight issues long. Continue to build more and more of an audience/readership. Be open to explore any promotional opportunities. Always get better, more consistent, more productive, more popular. Never go backwards.
Long-term. Make a living off of comics.
I guess long-term wasn't actually that hard to quantify.
Many will say that the goal, "make a living off of comics" is a pipe dream at best, and perhaps delusional at worst. To which I say, others are doing it, which means I can do it. Know that you'll succeed and you'll put in the time and be open to the possibilities that will make success possible. Know that you'll fail and you'll give up. Self-fulfilling prophecies.
I want to complete the entire page 11 before tomorrow. Here's to the attempt.
