Bordercrash 100
This is Bordercrash number 100!
What happened was, I started pretty strong. A few years ago, I posted one strip per week, did my best to meet my own deadline, and learned a lot about drawing/graphic design/lettering/writing. After a while, I was able to look back at a body of work and evaluate what I liked and what I didn’t. A fan or two started coming to the site.
Then a baby and a full-time job came along, and I just stopped for over a year. No more updates, no more fans, no more momentum.
Now the baby is a toddler and I don’t have to work full-time any more, or at least not full-time at a job I don’t want to do. So I’m back in the saddle, with a missed deadline here or there, and a hastily-thrown-together strip or two uploaded at the last minute. Like this one. I wrote and drew my landmark 100th strip in about an hour and a half. It may not be pretty, and it may not be the right way to celebrate a milestone, but it is finished, and I can spend the rest of the evening drawing a project that is more likely to make some money. More details about that one as it nears completion.
So I’m happy. Bordercrash #100! As a person who has started more projects than finished, even a quickly-drawn milestone, posted in obscurity, is a major win. I wrote and drew a hundred of these strips. A Hundred. A HUNDRED!
