So I'm finally getting motivated and editing my Fun-A-Day comics. This year I decided to do one panel comics in hopes that it would take less time and I'd be more likely to complete all 28 days. Alas, it did take less time - 1 hour a night to last years 2 or 3 was definitely an improvement. However, I still didn't make it all 28 days. For most of the month I'd leave the house at 8am and return home around 9pm and there were too many nights I didn't have the energy to dedicate an hour.
I'm not good at picking reasonable daily projects. Bad Fun-A-Day organizer! I definitely don't set a good example.
In any case, drawing one panel comics was pretty interesting. It ended up being way more different from multi-panel comics than I had expected. In general, when doing diary comics I pick an interesting interaction from the day, but that doesn't work so well for 1 panel. Conversations happen over multiple moments - but I'm only capturing one. So I don't necessarily end up picking a moment that sums up the day as much as picking a single moment that can be a complete story on its own.
It was more difficult than I had expected - but a good challenge.
