You figure it out as you go. It's the only way, believe me.

Agreed with Joel, you're not getting any younger and the sooner you sit down and do it the better. This being said from a 18 year old who has managed to pump out a 150 page novel in 2 months. Nothing's holding you back, just yourself. Trust me, you'll feel better once it's written...You'll feel worse once you start editing.

I to have a lot of projects running around, aside from decypher. I'm working on a new webcomic which is still in early development, which is being designed as my comic once decypher ends. Its a space-sci fi piece so I'm taking time to design the world the characters live in.

I'm working on a series of short films, still in my head, just five minute type things for various aspects of film production for a portfolio. There's two possible novels in my head. The one I'm excited about is about a group of soldiers who were exposed to pre-wwII tests of nuculear warfare.

I'm also working on new music, for my solo project. I just need the drums on the newest song.

Plus there's tons of dreamy type projects I want to be involved in. And well the comic fan fiction stuffs.

Ah, if you skip the eating and sleeping, you might be able to squeze in a comic or two more.

Already skipping both. It's the artist's diet program. So far I lost 3.5 lb. Does wonders.

I'd also like to know how you fit in all those projects. Just trying to draw a couple of pictures on the side is almost impossible for me.

Hmmm, I suppose you don't count finishing college?

Then I have several comic projects behind the ones running right now. I'm finishing a short 4-page story for a local competition and one a bit longer (read 100 pages) for one abroad. I have two almost-finished scripts for graphic novels, and a few that are still in pieces. I am also gathering strength to make new tutorials.
I have some very far projects considering film or music, but they are sooo far that I think they're not even worth mentioning.

I would really, really want to go to university. Seriously. Take on Culinary Arts, have my own restaurant....But I'm still saving up. It's part of my 7-year plan.

There's this webmail project that i'm working on, and we're bundling it into an appliance. Sorta like SquirrelMail, but better. And you just plug it in, and voila - you have your awesome email server.

It's a bit fragmented, but hey. I envy people with solid plans for their life though.

Well, there's moving Blue Skunk and making the new site look all pretty (blech. I hate. repeat. HATE html.)

I'm also redoing the old pages because I can't stand looking at them anymore, which is actually quite fun, as the new versions come closer to the origional idea than the old ones.

I am in the process of re-writing my scifi novel--second draft, for the writing-obsessed. After which I will probably start on the third and maybe fourth draft.

My ultimate goal is to sell the thing.

Writing several three-page entries into a contest a writer's group is running. It's a simple enough contest--write three pages on a theme, they don't have to END at three pages but the reader must want very badly to turn the page at the end of page three. I have one finished, and in need of a re-write, and I want to write a couple more to make sure number one isn't too melodramatic.

I'm already prepairing for National Novel Writing Month, which means lots of comicking, actually. I want november totally covered, as I don't see me being able to do a lot of comicking in between the daily 4k of words (I'm gonna be totally insane this year and set my goal at 100,000 words, not 50,000 words, in a month) I also have my idea, so I'm streaching it out to see how far it will go.

m^2, you are now my goddess of productivity. O_O.

I currently have 2 comics, a site that I intend to be like a giant novella, a novel in the works, and another dead novel that may or may not be ressurected.

Hehehe and those 2 comics of mine that are dead. XD

I'm beginning to write a new comic story and doing research into different drawing and painting techniues. I am trying to make my cartoons, well, less cartoony and more realistic.

I also play World of Warcraft and I am reading the sixth Harry Potter book.

I'm lucky in that the editor of my old paper is over there (yay, for references/contacts) and I've already received several offers. But I need to get the date from my move from Australia settled, too...

Heh.

Forget all the stuff I said before - the main project I'm doing lately is PROCRASTINATING.

That, and dreaming of a better career. Like some kind of job where I delegate and have power. Like RULER OF THE UNIVERSE or something.

I'd get my own taser then.

I'm planning on putting out a collected book of Gothy comics in stores around town, but other than that I'm just working on the comic and working at a dead end job. Hooray for dreams!
