@hashraydamon@webcomictalk - Put them in danger. How they react to that shows how they'll work in a crisis. Great way to show a "fight or flight" response.

AWFW: We are quite literally at the "Decent into Hell" point in the Hero's Journey
CS: It won't be as successful as you think it'll be. But it will be successful enough.
Folks I know comic platforms make it look like #webcomics are dead, but I can assure you, we are EVERYWHERE and still fighting, but you have to follow our links and our webrings!!
The eclipse started okay. But the longer it went on, the thicker the clouds got. Sadly, just before totality, the clouds straight up hid the show, and didn't let up until hours and hours later.
But we had a nice dark four minutes of totality darkness. I'm okay with that. That was @#$(&ing magical.

@webcomictalk - I've done two crossovers in my Closetspace comic, one major, one minor. The minor one was simply having an angel character from my A Wish for Wings Comic appear in my Closetspce Comic.
The major one, though, was a crossover with Venus Envy. This was planned between me and VE's creator Erin Lindsey/Crystal Frasier to be one where we both worked on each others comics, however, it ended up only being my side of the crossover getting done (although with her permission and supervision of her characters).
What was important, though, was that the corssover HAD to do two things: (1) it it had to further my story and (2) my main story had to make sense WITHOUT the crossover in case I ended up not being able to reprint the VE characters in book form. I think I managed on both counts, and while the story makes sense without the crossover, it makes better sense with it. But that's what's important.
Having the crossover is great and all, but in the end, it has to service the story and not just be a crossover for crossover's sake.
I never did find out what Erin/Crystal had in mind for my her character living in my character's world, other than she got a tattoo on her arm that said "Mario" and was wearing a bee costume by the end of her side of the adventure.
Welcome to #WebcomicTalk, the #fediverse#webcomic discussion hashtag. Our topic this week is "goals." We have three questions left.
Question 2: "Why did you choose the goal or resolution for your webcomic that you did?"
Please include the hashtag #WebcomicTalk and boost the prompt to invite more creators into the discussion. You can answer these prompts whenever you see them, even weeks after they are posted. We'll boost your responses.
I never liked open ended comics because there was never really much of a satisfying solution to the stories they were telling - they always dovetailed into the next thread.
So when I started my comics, I was very big on "I will have the whole story in my head before I do comic #1."
Closetspace (http://dolari.net/cs) is fairly rigidly plotted, and its following that plot very closely.
"A Wish for Wings" (http://dolari.net/awfw) was less rigidly plotted, and more of an outline that I would follow, but aiming towards an ending. In fact, we HIT that ending in episodes #101 and 104 (no pun iuntended).
That said, AWFW continued because, on the way to that ending, a sequel appeared in my head. That sequel was originally called "A Harp Within My Hand" but instead of making a new comic, I simply extended the story. Harp Within My Hand was also completely outlined before I weaved it into the comic.
@kkarhan - I worried that the recipe didn't have any "season to taste." So I seasoned it. And it didn't take. And did it again. And it didn't take. Eventually I got worried about the amount of salt going into it. Eventually I just stopped cooking it, and servied it up, thinking "I'll salt it when I eat it if it needs more."
And when I ate a full spoonful, it still wasn't salty, even with romano cheese sprinkled on it. Instead it was incredibly bitter tasting tomato.
I'm guessing "tomato paste" might mean something different wherever this was printed and it should have beeen "tomato puree" or something "tomato sauce." Either way, it tastes horrible and was a disservice to the seafood.
@ someone in the comments who has made your Mastodon experience better, a little explanation as to why would be awesome too! You are welcome to do more than one.
The team at Transport Evolved are VERY unhappy about the whole #Zoom debacle regarding #AI, so we're going to be switching our meeting provider to an open-source alternative (and saving money in the process)
But that doesn't mean for now we're not going to punk the AI systems at Zoom*…
