I've just smacked my pause hammer on [YOU ARE MINE NOW] and I'm actually feeling bad. The list is getting long, it's there after Just Usual Days and MTBWBL

Behind the scene, actually I'm developing a new way write a coherent story, because, you know, writing a story is peace easy, but writing a coherent, cohesive story that appeals to the masses is worth an academic degree. You see there are people complaining here and there on some popular webcomics/novels that the plots are all over the place. Maybe they are just angry/jealous/troll folks who got online connections, but here I often hear them in real life too. This thing I'm developing is actually working somewhat, but at the current form, it's only understandable by me (sob) and for normal people, it looks like hieroglyph or some kind of an alien language. I've been developing this method since Just Usual Days era, and I've been continuing iterating it and using it for my other stories as well from then:

Just Usual Days (the second reboot, the current form)

The Magician's Game (actually JUD spinoff)

The Saleswoman

MY TALKING BUTT WANTS BULLY'S LOVE

YOU ARE MINE NOW!!

Babysitting Stegosaurus.

...and there are like twenties others, that's been lined up waiting to be published in the future (that is, if I'm still doing comics). My story might be not perfect, but this method I'm using is enough to give me approximation as detailed as how many panels I need to draw, managing the arcs preventing it's hanging and not being resolved (leaves sour taste), and bunches of other convenience.

The decision has been made by looking that those BLs (those with capitals) actually are verrrrry loooooooooooooong, and containing problematic topics (MTBWBL deals with Nathan has very dark and convoluted past, at the same time facing very dystopian future, YAMN, while cheesy at first, actually contains topics that if I'm not careful enough, I'll be hated forever). Well, actually... YAMN is initially written to be shorter than MTBWBL, and MTBWBL is meant to be shorter than JUD's second arc. Guess I'm wrong by magnitudes. Even Babysitting Stegosaurus which was initially "just 150 strips. Enough." grown into 350+ strips, drafted. But it's still the shortest and holds the most potential, I think. Compared to some published webcomics who take similiar strip format, it's just about 30+ episodes. Hence, I'm putting my best effort to complete this one and getting people to read this and yes, I actually listened to that comment made by my lovely reader who has been reading since JUD era (hello there!), advicing to not juggle too much projects. And taking into accounts thoughts that I've been writing before, I think this is a reasonable path to take.

So... what are the plans actually? Finishing BS (haha, funny acronym) for now, of course. And then put out another straight romance story which has similiar length. And then try to continue JUD, along with an anthology that carries complete opposite tone. Along the way, I will try to find a way to secure financial things by not relying on patreon selling smuts (guess what). And finally, when I can afford to work with somebody else, continue MTBWBL and YAMN. Then finally I can put out a shonen story full of action that I've been looking forward to make. So .... that's a crude blueprint. There are other nitty gritty details like setting up a website so I'm not relying on tapas novel anymore, funding things, and others, but that's not really interesting. Well, it's a big blueprint spanning over many years, so... please look forward for it!

And by the way, I unintentionally made some big screwups on MTBWBL. And also JUD also has a fair share of ugliness. Well, screwups are fundamental in this life, right....? Good thing that my method helps me to spot the mistakes.... On the side note, tapas novels really start to hiccup once I write over 5000 chars......and I keep hitting Ctrl + S
