Chapter 15 -- Kit vs Dewbreen

[OmniShadow]

Good to hear, it sounded pretty bad from how you described it, so I'm glad to hear you're doing good now

Let's hope the site gets fixed soon, cause I need my Kit-Fix ;D

Wish I had more info, but I don't.

Hey man, as long as you're doing okay that's all that really matters. I'd love to have the story continue obviously, but your health takes priority.

Well, I have THIRTEEN WEEKS of updates ready to go.

It's just a matter of Brian getting the site fixed.

TheDreadful.com is available I'm pretty sure if you toss up a kickstart with prints and t-shirts you could generate the cash to get a site of your own and just cross post here!

Not a bad idea...

But then comes the issue of building/maintaining a site, which I dont know how to do.

"ComicFury is a free, easy to use and advertisement-free tool that will help you set up a website for your webcomic, which you can elegantly manage without any technical knowledge. All you will have to worry about when using ComicFury is actually making the comics, the rest is provided by us. It also offers you free exposure on the site and excellent support on the forums. "

You register the domain name (like $10/year) and they'll host it. Seems easy and cheap enough I'm also confident that you have some savvy fans who can help!

I don't have the time to help... but would be willing to in principle. Certainly would contribute to a kickstarter, or throw some money each month through patreon. (Weird, at least 8 years ago I suggested to Brian that he put a button on the site where I could pay a dollar or two a month to help support it... and he explained that was considered poor taste... times they are a changin)

Here's a Dreadful Status Update (I'm pretty sure I've said a lot of this before, but here it is again along with some new information):

Brian is currently working on a site overhaul. Whether this means a whole new site with a redesign, or just a working version of the old site, I'm not sure (I think it's the former).

The people he's hired to do it won't start on it till early August, so The Dreadful will be on hiatus for just a bit longer.

But, once it does start up again, I'll have thirteen weeks of updates. And, since I have such a huge chunk of time, I plan on working on other things.

Not just commissions, I'm also strongly considering doing a Dreadful spin-off comic and submitting it to Comixology.

I may also do a smaller comic and post it on its own site, something simple and more day-to-day story/gag wise.

And I'm also considering starting a patreon or kickstarter to raise some money to keep The Dreadful going so I don't have to find an external source of income. At the very least, I'd like to be able to raise enough money where I only have to work part-time on non-Dreadful things.

Since I'm currently in the process of a move (possibly two moves depending on how things go) I've not really had time to sit down and really think about these things. In fact I've been fairly exhausted these past few weeks, between trying to get things moved AND keeping up with my Dreadful work AND making sure I keep up with my physical therapy for my arm.

But hopefully by this time next week I will have everything sorted...at least with the move. My arm will still need a month or so of mending.

Next time I won't use coins, time for a new screen.

I hope more people will be willing to throw money at me
