WTB Dignity 0164

And the story marches on, and on, and on!  We’ve got a new page up, and another one is almost complete. We are trying very hard to get back onto a regular schedule here with our updates, folks, so fear not!  Eventually, all will work as planned, and we will get back to a regular, twice  a week update. Can you imagine such a world?  I can!  It is a world where milk and honey flow like water, and the streets are paved with gold (or cheese, I cannot remember which).  Anywho, we will continue to fight the good fight, and our characters will continue to fight as well. So tell your friends! Tell your families!  WTB Dignity is kikcin’ it old school, just like we used to.

Writing.

by Mr. Sinn on August 19, 2011 at 1:41 pm
Posted In: webcomic updates

So, I have been writing a lot lately. This should come as no surprise, considering that I am the writer of two different web comics. Well, comics aside, this is where I stand: I have finished a novel. It currently clocks in at 70,000 words, but I would like it to be 75k, at least. This will not be hard to do, but before I start throwing in paragraphs, I would like to go through a creative critique/edit. I already have a senior copy-editor lined up once I have this second draft finished, but I am still in need of the creative review first, followed by an unscrupulous round of polishing.

This brings me to my first major roadblock: creative reviews and edits cost money. Lots of money. Money that I do not have.  Fortunately for me, my wife is particularly skilled at this, and will be helping me… that is, if she can ever find the strength of will to put down Game of Thrones for a day or two… my guess is no.  So, sooner or later, the edits and feedback I need will be given, and I will be able to polish off my novel to a more finished format.  Then, I can hand it off to the senior copy-editor, who will tear my grammar asunder, no doubt.  After those fixes are made… then it’s off to pitch this bad-boy to some literary agents and agencies.  So!  Wish me luck and best of it and all that jazz.  I’ve got a few solid leads that I am going to attempt to follow, but they’re little more than essentially cold-calling at this point.

Anyway, all of that aside, I am immensely proud of the work that I have done so far, and for having the tenacity to follow through and to actually finish a complete novel.  It is something that I view as quite an accomplishment, and I look forward to doing it many more times.  In fact, I already have a brief outline of the next book in my series that I am attempting to create.  I am so excited I can hardly wait to get started on it.

Nyota gets a little excited sometimes, but can you blame her after the glorious destruction that Harold wrought?  I certainly can’t, because it was totally awesome.  Awesome to the max, some might say.  And some might go as far as to say “awesome to the maxx” with two X’s, because it just has that high of a radical factor.

We are currently tossing around the idea of putting together a WTB Dignity book, called “WTB Digntiy: Volume 1″.  it would basically be the first 104 pages of the comic together in one paperback book, which would be amazing.  Also, we would include somewhere around 20 extra pages of behind the scenes content that has never before been seen on the web, such as character sketches and designs, and a few other odds and ends, such as commentary, a couple of unpublished comic pages, and the like.  Sound like something you would be interested in?  It’s something that I would be interested in, make no mistake!  I’m always excited to see my work in a tangible, physical format that I can hold and smell.  It tends to make me somewhat giddy, because I feel like I’ve actually created something at that point, you know?

If you’ve got any thoughts on the matter, please feel free to leave some comments bellow, or over at the side there on the comment wall.  Whatever floats your boat, but come on people!  Leave us some comments, or open up a dialogue with us.  Something like that, you know?  We thrive on comments, and love to write back.

Here comes the big boss man Harold to fix things up right!  Perhaps.  We’ll be moving along from the crash site shortly, I promise.  I know we’ve spent several pages dealing with poor Raz’s condition, but it’s a pretty serious ailment, so it’s worth the time.  Only one more page or two in this spot, I promise!  Then we’ll be moving on to where exactly our noble crew is, and how they plan on getting out of there.

In yesterday’s very brief post, in case you haven’t read it, I mention that we now have a mobile friendly version of the site.  This is absolutely true!  Go ahead, see for yourself.  Load this bad-boy up on your iphoney, or your strawberry, or whatever hi-tech gizmo you have that I don’t know about.  Go ahead.  Do it.  I’ll wait right here.  It’s okay, I’ve got time, check it out.

oh, sweet irony!  Somewhere along the lines, we lost the little “login” on the side… so now it’s back!  Right underneath the comment wall on the right side.  Boom!

On a side note, Mr. Weisner and I have pretty much finished up all of our pending jobs.  Right now, are docket is pretty much completely empty for the moment, which is never too good.  Sure, we have a side project we’re trying to roll out, but since Weisner got back onto WoW this week, it’s been slow.  The only thing I’ve seen him do for three days now is Raid and PvP.  Needless to say, side project = side tracked!  Honestly, what we really need is another animator or two.  I would love for there to be more than just the two of us… but what can you do?  most people won’t work for hours on end for nothing more than “fun”, unfortunately, which puts us in the position we are in at the moment.  And with no more jobs on the to-do list, it doesn’t look like we’ll be paying anyone for assistance anytime soon.  Such is the way of things!

Best I can figure, this is simply the way things will stay for some time, until we can really get a nice ball rolling (the ultimate goal).  So far, it’s been working out fairly well, and we have certainly been able to maintain (for the most part) a nice and steady web comic.  Hell, the fact that we’ve managed to pump out over 100 pages is, to me, astonishing!  I don’t think I have ever worked on one project or job for this long… you know over 1 whole year.  And I’m not even bored with it!  That just means that we will continue to press forward and publish more and more unique content.  Who can ask for more than that?

One more thing:  I’ve been doing this whole “Name a Berserker” contest… and no one is entering it!  No one!  Only two entries in weeks!  I think it might just be time to wrap it up… who would have thought that our readers HATE the notion of getting free swag?  I mean, who hates swag?  Who?!  Apparently, the answer to that question is, decisively, you. I’ll wait another week or two to see if anyone else wants to enter into the contest, you know, just to see.  It’s over on the forums!  Go to the forums!  Go and see.  I urge you.

One last side note:  I seriously, and I mean seriously want this microphone right here.
