Hey,
Its been almost a full year since my last journal update, so I just thought I'd say hi.
I used to write really long journal entries that shared a lot of my inner thoughts and feelings, but now writing stuff like that seems... I dunno, completely ridiculous. It was definitely oversharing.
Anyway, for the last year and a half I've been working on my new webcomic Swords - www.swordscomic.com
It's a comic about swords, mostly. I didn't really go in with a plan, but after posting the first episode on Reddit and getting 17k upvotes while I was sleeping, I knew I'd tapped in to something special. Now there are 249 episodes and it's really starting to change my life in a good way.
Currently I'm earning about $400 a month on Patreon - www.patreon.com/matthewjwills
Having so many people willing to support my creativity is really something I never imagined - that money is giving me some breathing room to just think about the things I need to go even further.
The website is already generating revenue from ads - you can help out by just going and reading the series, and whitelisting the site on your adblocker. I never want to be one of those sites that bugs you until you disabled it, but I just feel I should mention its totally optional but a nice thing you can do for me.
I'm currently exploring getting t-shirts printed somewhere too. I have a New Zealand based store already, but getting one set up overseas would be cheaper for my primarily American audience.
I'm looking for a Social Media Manager to help me keep up with all my websites - I have so many accounts now and some of them like this one really deserve a lot more attention. I think having someone to help me out will really give me more headspace for building up an even bigger audience.
That's about it, I guess. Let me know how you're going in the comments below. I probably haven't heard from some of you in years.
Cheers,
