A little over a year since I first turned over my daily Farside calendar and started drawing my own webcomic (in about 30 seconds as the drawing is very simple), I've reached 50 posts and decided to take a break. It was fun and I still have some more I could post, but it doesn't feel healthy to put my mind in such a negative light and keep producing these. I recently read C.S. Lewis' Screwtape Letters and his prologue mention his unwillingness to continue writing more letters (even given high reader/publisher demand) because of the negative attitude this produced within himself. This hit home. Not to compare myself to C.S. Lewis as he is a huge figure, it just reminded me of my own feelings on the subject of writing in a negative light. Hopefully I'll be inspired to write a more positive webcomic, but then I'll probably have an even smaller audience than I've garnered with this one. Of course the final webcomic is one that mocks myself so it seemed an appropriate place to take a break.
