So I've completed my first full week on the
Web Comics Nation site. Numbers were pretty low, and I know a lot of folks will say, "Jesus, Jay, it's
only been one week!", but it was still a pretty humbling experience to see the low number of daily views, with yesterday being the worst.
Obviously the majority of you guys are checking me out right here (and please,
continue to do so! Maybe send some of your non LJ friends to the 'nation site...).
Of course, there's a lot of work to do. I remain stupefied that I never thought of doing the outside posting sites before. Next up in the world will be a
Comicspace page. All of this falls under the category of "things I've been planning to do" or "I've been too damn lazy to do". I turn 39 years old on July 1th, and I'm really coming late to these parties it seems. Pretty much like how I avoided the real party scene when I was a teenager young adult, I've preferred to stay hidden away in the World Wide Web. I mean, geez, I've had a Facebook site for awhile and I could easily have posted my strips there for all the pals of mine who may have never seen my LJ page or any of my books.
I'm humbled, but not bowed by all this. I intend to hit it and hit it hard. Kris and Xander are off camping for a few days, so that leaves me plenty of time to get a lot of the things I've been "meaning to do" actually
doing. The website is still problematic, but apparently more stable than it has been. That too will be improved upon.
I need to know how
Lezley Davidson manages the high number of hits she's had for
Peeling Onions. It can't all be friends and acquaintances!!
EDIT: Didn't make the new Always Comix cutlist. Not too upset. My story was fairly late in the cue submission wise, and eh, you can't win em all! There's always the next one, and after seeing the cutlist for the Evil issue, I really gotta step up my game artwise. These kids are good...
