It's Too Late For Me! Save Yourselves! (Self Promotion)

A group of drunks propping each other up will still topple when enough of them pass out. Although I could quit, I'm forging ahead with a project. You can see a photo of it here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/22577147/
There are people in this world who are able to shit out a story and make it up as they go along, and their efforts actually have coherent plots with entertaining characters.
I'm not blessed like that, so my means of madness is an outline made with several plain 3x5 cards, each with brief notes explaining the details of a sequential bit of the story, as the characters swing from one plot point to the next. Each is held up with a magnet so I can quickly edit each card and put it back to see the overall timeline, and if a card becomes completely illegible I replace it with a fresh one.
The picture I've posted in my scraps shows what will become an 18-page comic story. It was originally meant for a foreign magazine, but it folded last year (before I even knew it existed). I've decided to complete the story and self-publish through Kickstarter (although it may be submitted afterwards, once I can afford an editing translator).
Watch this account for progress updates.

And it seemed like a good mag too. Shame.

I figure the heads of all creatives are full of the amazing stories they were going to do when they have time. Alas, only the stories you spend the time and sweat on actually getting down on paper (or pixels?), where other people can see them, count for anything.
