Dear Webomics.com,
I’ve been attempting to get moving on a webcomic for a little over a year now. I’ve got to the point where I would have 3-6 months written out (depending on update schedule). Recently though, I’ve decided to put this whole story in the background.

Dear Webcomics.com,
How does one discover his or her story? In listening to interviews with some of my favorite creators, I often hear the artist say that he found success by just finally putting everything together that he wanted to draw, or write about, and stopped trying to please an audience. Mike Mignola [“Hellboy”] comes to mind, as does Jeff Smith [“Bone”]; both these guys developed ideas that they loved, despite the current ‘hot thing.’ But how does one find that concept? How does one discover the story he or she really wants to tell? I find that answering this question is really hard (I’m assuming it’s hard for a lot people since there is so much derivative work out there).

From the New York Times, Dave Kellett passes the following along:
Think registering your business sounds like a perfunctory and insignificant task? Think again.
The registration process forces you to confront a battery of questions that should be part of the bedrock of your business plan. Too often, new business owners regard registration as just another bureaucratic ticket to punch, and they fail to focus on important related steps like claiming a business name, choosing a structure and securing all of the requisite permits. This sort of rush-to-the-wedding approach has become more tempting now that online services allow businesses to do these tasks with little thought.
Get out your calendar and start circling dates. It’s time to do a little webcomics planning.
