Dear MPA readers ^^

Journal Entry: Wed May 9, 2012, 2:42 AM

Read my webcomic : *
Updates every Monday !




First of all thank you A LOT for reading my silly comics :blowkiss:

Today I'd like to ask for your opinion and advice on two things :

Presentation and updates

For the moment the comic is only displayed on my website, each language has its own section with more or less the same content.
The weekly updates are announced here on DA as deviation like this one :
They're also posted on tumblr.
Of course there's an RSS feed for both sections.

Aaand... that's it ^^.

I was wondering if you were satisfied with this presentation as it was of if you'd really prefer if I posted the pages/the updates on other places more convenient for you.

The thing is, I'm kind of a control-freak so I like to have full control on both my content and the way it's displayed. That's why I didn't even consider submitting my comics on extern platforms like smackjeeves and such, or even DA (the templates are not flexible enough, and the submission agreements freak me out.)
And as I'm a not only paranoid but also lazy and untalkative person (how lovely, heh ?), I don't have any FB account nor twitter and probably never will.

But of course if these limitations happen to turn half my readers away, I may reconsider them...

Quality of the comic

In addition of all the wonderful social qualities I enumerated a few lines above, I also suffer from the usual low self-confidence that seems to be the common condition of about every non-professional artist I know.
But I want things to improve. Today I'm feeling exceptionally ready to hear unpleasant truths about my comic skills, and maybe resist the urge to immediatly throw myself into the nearest river because of them... so fire away ^^ !

Je me rends compte que depuis le temps que je te croise sur le net, je pensais t'avoir déjà watché alors qu'en fait non... *boulet*
Je me rattrape! >_<;

De rien :) moi c'est pareil, tu fais partie des gens que je croise souvent donc que j'avais l'impression d'avoir "dans mes listes" et puis un jour je me rends compte que non, on se voit toujours un peu par hasard.

J'en profite pour dire que j'aime beaucoup ce que tu fais et qu'il va falloir que je te commande des badges à haute teneur en chitine XD.

Merci! >w<
Pareil, j'avais lu certains de tes bds et bjd stories (pas toutes, j'avoue, 24h par jour c'est vraiment trop court) et j'adore ton humour et la douceur de ton trait.
Et puis la coutuuuuuure! *v*

(Wouah, merci pour les badges! Ça me fait trop plaisir de voir qu'il n'y a pas tant de monde que ça à tordre du nez devant les petites bêtes! Ou alors c'est qu'elles ne se manifestent pas! XD; )
