Sorry all my posts sound like surveys! ^_^ all I can ever think to do is ask questions.
So who posts multiple comics here, and how do you manage it?

I post 5 and I'm an ADD insomnia crazy person! no really I love drawing so muchies I just do it all the time. i've always loved comics, but kinda gave up after seeing "How to Draw the Marvel Way" a few years later I read manga and kinda didn't care anymore, and just started oganizing my ideas/drawings...and here we are!

Also anyone who reads my comics knows that if I say I'm posting on Monday, you'll prolly see it about Thursday :D

I have eight comics, and boy, do I suck at updating them.
...I haven't updated one since September.

I love abstract and surrealistic things. The whole thinking out of the box thing. There's a certain joy I get from doing a comic that no one would ever think of doing.

I have five comics... six if you want to be technical.

I used to have no problems keeping up because I could spend all day drawing at my job where I sat at a desk all day and had lots of downtime. Now that I was promoted and have to spend my whole day driving around paying attention to my surroundings, I havent been able to update that much. Ive had a page 85% done for ONN since November and I still cant get to it.

Reflecting on my situation, I think its probably best to stick with one comic...
Unfortunately, I cant disappoint fans of one in favor of another comic, so I will stick with them all.

I am FS2 champion! w00t!!

I've got 3... and I update regularly... yet. Basically by being an overconscientious, over-organized insomniac. Hehehe.

I got 3.

Magical Mania, Aurorean Tales, and Endless Dream.

Magical Mania's my most updated, due to it being my first webcomic and being the most fun to do....

Aurorean Tales I haven't updated in a while... due to the artist block and lack of movation for that one..

Endless Dream, I'm planning on updating soon.
I'm on hitatus while I redo one of my webcomics. Be sure to check it out when I'n done! :)

I've had one main comic basically my whole time here, but from time to time I've been known to take up sideprojects. Back when E&A was hastily drawn and in black and white I could handle updating Napster.boat on a weekly basis.

i had two..but i really think i should just focus on one at a time...since the one comic im doing is doing really well (^^) (im perpetually floating around the 50's-60's in the most readership) so i decided to only pay attention to one...since it up-dates every day..including weekends (^^)

I've got four of my own and I'm assisting one. Usually one updates with a burst of pages then stops, then another will do the same. Either it keeps going like that in cycles or I just lose all inspiration for the comic and it drops off the web. Which is why I started my latest comic with the priority of keeping the story relatively short -

You have a comic with Myxo? I'd bet it sucks.

I have three comics. One of them just refuses to update, and the other two update...well, fairly consistently.

I also sketch out two other comics, a bunch of Rp's, and a novel. And in a couple of weeks, we'll add university work to that.

Yeah. I thrive under pressure.

I've been wanting to know the answer to this forever. I only have one comic but as a married man, college student, and active duty military, it's all i have time for. It seems that when people have more than one, they don't get updated regularly. So if i understand what i've read so far, to take on more than one properly, you have to either be a insomniac or have little to no life? Damn that sux.

I've got five or so up and then maybe four more in Short Stories. I only update one, though. The others are all work that's been completed.

I have to have two or three things going on to get anything done. you'd think that if i could focus on one thing i'd get that thing done quicker, but my head doesnt work that way. I can pretty much get my artwork done unless life gets in the way. And when life gets in the way, that's life!;)

I have 3. 1 is easy to draw so it updates consistently; 1 I update when I feel guilty about no updating; 1 I'm updating whenever I get a chapter done.

Oof...I have three. One is fifty pages in queue, one's forty, and the other is just started with three (if you count the cover)

I'm currently staying on week ahead with updates so I get two weeks to play with each page. I was sporadic at first, but after a couple of weekends not having the other half around to divide my attention I was able to get ahead on all three comics.

I have four in queue for Plague and one each for Sins of the Father and Fickle Fickle World. So I'm busy all the time drafting, inking and coloring the pages, but I have enough leeway that I can do it a couple cells a night to stay ahead.

Well, I'm running 2 comics and I'm thinking debuting the third one if I reached the 5th issue at least.

Updating wise everything's going as planned. Every 3 days I update a new page... one turn is for Billy Learns To Rock and the other turn is The Burnhams to make both comics moving on a regular basis.

Organizing your time and work makes things more easy... trust me!


Enjoy... Las Vegas-y

Technically I have three, Brymstone, Shifters Redux, and On Gossamer Wings. How do I manage them? Well, for the most part, poorly.

Shifters is my 'main' that I've been working on for like 8 years. I'm *trying* to update consistently, twice a week. Brymstone is my second priority, and I try to update it once a week, but I don't always manage it because Shifters takes up so much of my drawing time. OGW was a side project I might update some year when I feel like it, its related to Shifters.

Of course I always have about five or six ideas simmering on the back burner.

But I'm a working professional with a full time job, social life, family life, and etc, so I don't have as much time as I used to when I was a student or when I worked part time, so its been getting harder and harder to keep up with everything I want to do. Including comics.

I have 2, but I have no plans to revive FFVITRF, so all of my attention goes to Anything Goes.
