Interesting developments abound. I'll tell you once I may. Until then, please keep in mind that MoF has reached a territory where I post strips that I haven't shown here, so go and check them out. Right now, every visitor counts. Also, tell your friends to have a look. Thank you.

New story arc: TJ Hooker vs. Zombies.
That said, I'm thinking of ending this. Readership has dropped 50% (more over the weekends), and it's getting to be a chore, spending my evenings drawing MoF. It's not really rewarding anymore, as if it has jumped the shark with the Women in Refrigerators arc.
I'll probably continue on until #50, then stop. (In case you're wondering, I'm at #30 here at home.) I'm going to dedicate a story arc to parody jumping the shark (guest starring Barack Obama, Angela Merkel, Taro Aso, Silvio Berlusconi, Nicolas Sarkosy and Ted McGinley), and then do two or three strips to wrap the whole thing up (as in, the "What do you mean, we're cancelled?" story arc).
And that will be it, then, unless something happens to boost readership, or something else that re-energizes me.

Oi. Best writer, happily. Best artist -- that was the biggest laugh of the week, sorely needed!

I'm getting tired of doing the Made of Fail comic strip. It doesn't help that I'm taking longer to produce each strip (more than three hours per strip, it was two hours per strip when I started), and that readership has gone down -- massively. To the point where I wonder, why bother.
My options, as I see them, are as follows:
1) Continue Made of Fail as it is, updating three times a week. 2) Reduce Made of Fail updates to twice a week, or maybe once a week. 3) Stop doing Made of Fail and write a new novel instead.
The thing is that in order to make the time to write a new novel, I would need to stop doing the Made of Fail strip. As usual, I have too many ideas for a new novel. It could be that vampire romance I've mentioned before. Or a new Christopher Price novel, with zombies, that I had an idea for earlier today.
I can't do both the strip and a novel. One would have to go. Right now, I favor letting go of the strip in order to write the novel.
