Keeps Getting Petter And Petter

Where will your comic be again? / Nordic Comic Contest. 12-page short story of the theme ”Polar night”, deadline’s quite close too. / What’s yours about? // Uh, alcoholism. / … / Like, the depression and the anxiety and the shame. / … / Y’know, with a fresh twist? / …

It IS a cliché! Oh god what if I can’t bring anything new to the subject matter? What if I’m being Kaurismäki-esque? What if I’m plain bad??? / I’ve tried to regain my motivation and self-esteem, to no avail. / (Unambitious, hasty, stressed out) / And the first few pages are so detailed and ink-washed with love! (Insert ink-washed with love, here.) / Boohoo I won’t be able to stand behind this piece of work either.

Of course I have to finish this anyway, and not be afraid of mediocrity. // The most important thing is get SOMETHING done in my life. / I might’ve become blind to the whole project. Proof-reading is scary though, going back to previous work stages etc. // (Can’t commit to long projets) /I’m trash, I shall go to the trashcan. // Okay next week I will print my queerzine small press comic to the Helsinki Comic Festival. Perhaps I’m just not a drama comic artist!
