Update #44: Work on Chapter 4 has begun…
Posted on March 2, 2010
I've got what I think will be the final cover finished, and right now I'm finishing up the tedious process of correcting the blacks in all the existing strips. Plus, I've got a few smaller things don't that don't really stand on their own (and so I won't bother posting them just yet).
I'm also hard at work writing the four(?) full-fledged bonus strips for this chapter — much of which will be fleshing out Devi and Gretchen.
I'll have some stuff to share later in the week, I promise!
I'm afraid it's looking like finishing the book may take a little longer than the initial two months I had slated for this, between the two remaining chapters and the "prequel" story, and any other production issues that come up — but on the bright side (sort of), I no longer have a day job to go back to due to a "restructuring" in the department at my former client — so, I'm able to keep plugging away at the book until it's finished, before I head back to the land of print production to pay some bills.

Project By
Connected as Gordon McAlpin (804 friends)
I write and draw Multiplex, an online comic strip about the staff of a movie theater.
Gordon - gutted to find out you've been downsized, but kinda glad it means you can devote more time to multiplex. Does that make me a bad person?!
Nah, I'm kind of glad about it, myself. I was hoping to have a few months of steady bill-paying work before the books arrive in August (or thereabouts) and start bringing in money, but I'll squeak by one way or another.
