Wow, I guess everybody really is on Tumblr this year. Pity; it's harder to keep track of all the different comics there. Oh well, this was fun as always!

I'm from Santa Rosa! But now I live in LA. I really like your panel with the rocket ships Smile

Check out mine if you have a second! I'm Evan Koehne in the forum thread.

I really want a cream cheese bagel now. Curses.

And what is this 'Tumblr' thing you speak off? I should really get on that, but ANOTHER profile/website/blog to maintain? The hardships of modern day comicing! (Comicking?)

(Haha, the bagels are addictive.)

Yes, Tumblr is another blog-type-thing. You can tag each post with things like "hourly comics" or "cat antics" or whatnot, and people can search the website as a whole to find posts on that subject.

As I learned today, there's an awful lot of people on Tumblr who are posting hourly comics this year!

And this forum doesn't look as dead as it did earlier, which I'm glad to see.

This is what my Tumblr looks like, just for reference. I post about comics, writing, and other miscellania.

I probably should get a Tumblr. I love drawing and stuff, but I'm not very good at the networking side of comics. It's hard, and I'm not sociable. Probably should get a Twitter. Just feels like more work though.

Sorry to hear about the finger, but the drawings didn't suffer for it. They look great! I love the pencil work.

@TonyTheToonist: I like Tumblr more than Twitter, since you can write as much as you want, as well as post pictures/video/etc. And it's easy to find other people with similar interests.

@inanimateshorts: Thanks! I got a lot of practice in holding pens and pencils weird, since I have to do a lot of writing at work. And I like how the pencil art looks when I have time to tidy it up -- usually I fret that I didn't ink anything, but it doesn't really need it. (Yay!)

The organisation of Tumblr is horrible, it's like a facebook crossed with a blog with none of the advantages of either. Plus every share of something counts as a 'note', as do comments. You think you'll find an interesting conversation on something only to see a million "X reblogged this" XD.

Also did your cat poop in a southern rock igloo? XD

MarlynnOfMany · Posted: Tue Feb 04, 2014 9:21 pm Post subject:

*shrug* There's definitely pluses and minuses to Tumblr. I've been having fun with it.

And yes, that is an igloo litterbox. It's the only kind we can have, since they kick litter EVERYWHAR if it isn't covered. ("Cats are clean," people say. "Except when they're stupid," I reply.)

Being able to immediately help someone is the best feeling! I love hourlies that I learn something from. Now I know about some plastics! And also craving quiche.
I've NEVER met a cat that can keep their litter in the litter box, they are SO not as clean as people thing (those people must have outdoor cats)

Glad to see you here again this year, despite the apparent exodus to Tumblr! I miss being able to find people and see their progress from year to year, you just don't get that from Tumblr, it's a unique forum experience! We'll keep this forum going for years to come!

Indeed; here's to the future! Maybe next year it will be an explosion of people and we'll all be confused where it came from. Smile

I did my first hourly comic this year and this is my first time in the forum.
Great to see your work. I know what you mean about scanning drawings - necessary but time consuming and so boring.

Glad you made it! The scanning is definitely time-consuming. I'm sure that if I did the comic on the computer I wouldn't have that problem, but I can't do it where I work, so that's right out.

Looks like the forum's dying down. See you next year!
