What’s Happening Next Year?

As of today, New Year’s Eve 2021, here is what I have planned:

January 1st: Parker and Luca will premiere (Webtoon, Tapas, Facebook, Instagram). Also, “Formerly Cascades Stories” will be dropped from the site title.

February 14th: Matt the Comic by Matt, as my semi-autobiographical comic will now be called, will premiere (Webtoon, Tapas, Facebook, Instagram).

February 25th: Max Fields #1 will premiere (Tapas, Wattpad).

May 6th: Tales of Human Nature: Serial Killer will premiere (Webtoon, Tapas, Wattpad).

June-August: Drafting will begin for the full-length adaptations of The Aviary of Henry Weston and The Runaways. Rather than post them online, I plan to send them to publishers.

September 20th: I will turn 21!

October 1st: The Nightman of Bellingham Bay will premiere (Wattpad, Tapas, Webtoon).

November 18th: SLS will turn 2!

December: Blue City Mysteries will premiere (publication method TBD).

???: SLS Patreon will be up.

Illustration Poll

Pro: You’ll get to see my illustrations of scenes from The Waterfall, Tales of Human Nature, Blurred Lines, Voldensfjordian Murders (text version), Max Fields, and other non-comic works. It’ll also help me improve my drawing skills, and I can post these on Webtoon, not just Tapas and Wattpad.

Con: More time will be needed between updates. I have college and work, and those are always tied for first place on my list of priorities, leaving only so much time for work on stories and comics.

However, I am seriously considering this. What do you think? Poll ends February 1st, 2022.

P.S.: The Aviary of Henry Weston and Blue City Mysteries are going to be illustrated regardless of the outcome of this poll, but not by me.

TVOV: Bokse dag (Boxing Day)/Andre Juldag (Second Christmas)

I’m not sure if I believe in jinxes. I know that I don’t have complete control over what happens to me, but sometimes I just can’t help but think…

TVOV: De tolv juledagene, Dag tolv (God Jul!)

Salmon is kind of a staple in both Nordic and PNW Cuisine. Me? I have a love-hate relationship with it. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I don’t.

Update: 12/21/2021
