One last question on Comic Creation.
Sorry, Digulla. I know I talked big and said I was going to get started right away, but there's one TECHNICAL question only the masses can answer: Would you rather have a bi-daily dose of a comic STRIP, or a weekly dose of a comic BOOK? The story basically stays the same either way, but I can't decide which way to go on this. It's going to go up on a website (I'll let you know when it's up), so it's now really a matter of which people would prefer.
Whaga.

Sorry Logan, but what kind of question is that?
You're again starting from the end.
When it comes to publishing, people like the whole book yesterday better than anything else. So just start and see how fast you can go at all. And when you know, then you can set yourself a schedule.
But stop thinking about when people would like to see the results of your work. When The Pope asked Michelangelo when the Sixtinean Chapel would be finished, he got: When it's finished. Of course, the Pope wanted it the be finished as soon as possible but good work takes time. So don't ask the customer when he wants the work of art to be finished.
I wish I could tell my customers the same (No, sir, your $4'000'000 project is not finished yet. Yes, I know it was due three months ago...).
