There’s actually a second, two-part reason for aspiring to deadlines and a certain update frequency; momentum, and I really, really only want this to only last for a year. I started reading homestuck when it came out in 2009, and at some point that’s just enough of my life to give to something. When I delay an update, I’m not just delaying that update. I’m taking time away from the next thing I want to do.

Act 8 is, fundamentally, a fan story I really want to tell. I make a lot of choices as a director that commit to completion over perfection; I actually would rather have a C+ story done in a year than an A+ story done in five years, particularly since I’m not getting paid.

I’m rambling again, but it’s definitely a hard line to walk. I’m learning how to walk it. Maybe things will get better over time. Thank you for the input, though.
