I know what you mean. I’m very prone to the “oooh, shiny!” syndrome myself. I have a lot of trouble staying on task. I generally get things done, but often at the last minute and with considerable stress. I’ve been that way for probably all my life; just the way I’m wired.

Best of luck.

Thanks for the comment I agree with you that Gilly needs to be proactive. He needs to be a hero after all and the whole story needs to get a bit more epic, I feel. I’ll try to do some writing when i feel better. But I don’t know if i can do it in color. It’s just so much more time consuming unless I can find an easier way about it. But thanks again for the great input

Just a quick note on the poll. Overall, I like the story and characters quite well. Your sense of humor really clicks for me and I love your artwork. The only real issue I have is that I would like to see Gilrec start becoming more proactive and take charge of his life, instead of just letting things happen to him. I do see hints of that as the story progresses, but I would like for the process to accelerate. It would be good if you could try to commit to updating at least once a week. Perhaps when you’re feeling well you could work ahead and then be able to update weekly even when you’re not.

lol probably not. But hey, if everyone and their brother can run around with blasters and comlinks and stuff, why not parody a sonic screwdriver? Besides I just couldn’t see gilrec going around with an actual gun

Does that mean that giant metal cans with two antenna and one big central eye will make an appearance going “Gilrec! Exterminate! Exterminate!”

Nice . . . glad to see you’re able to move on again with TFR. Your’s was one of first webcomics I started following. Never posted before, but was just glad to see a new page. Like the choice for Gilrec’s new toy. Keep ‘em coming.

So you mean if I make the story of the ebook up to this point right before the action starts? Or did you mean the webcomic online? Sorry, I’m a little foggy this morning, not thinking clearly as I would like. It’s my illness. Not feeling too good.

Just so everyone knows (because I forgot to mention it) vol. 1 of the ebook goes from the new beginning of the story, to the end of the the big spaceship chase with Brin and the bug-eyed aliens, and right before Gilrec goes to the engagement party. So chapters 1-4. Then I put the original beginning in as a bonus at the end of the volume. (I’d put it at the beginning but the art isn’t as good and I don’t want that to be people’s first impression of it.)

I still have to color like 11-12 pages before I can put together volume two which will take it up to the end of chapter 5. I’ve just been too sick to sit and color them. It’s a lot of work. I’ve got a lot of important things that need doing too but just can’t do them at the moment.

Anyway, sorry for my slowness. I’m just feeling kind of crumby and all. I’d ask to have some enterprising artist color those pages for me, but I have no money to pay and I don’t ask for artists to do work for free and not get paid. Artists should get paid. Besides, TFR doesn’t sell that well, so I’m not sure it’s worth it. Still, I would like to get it done.

About buying ebooks. I know that “action in your comic was just about to begin, so there is no action in ebooks on sale. By “action” I mean some story related revelations. If I’ll make story till this blurry point — I’ll buy ebook (=

(and maybe many more others too)
