What's up: Hey June

I don't have a planned post today, so I decided to just write up a quick "What am I doing" sort of post. I'm taking a page out of Eri's book and going to "just post that s#%t"

Games

I've been getting into Starbound recently, enjoying the update from koala to giraffe. The new structure is easier to play and gives better direction. It has some faults with letting you know what you should be doing next to continue sometimes.

I also been playing a little Star Wars: The Old Republic with my brother. Trying to determine if we're ready to subscribe again and play through the stories. If anyone has any suggestions for someone like that, give me a shout out. I'm not sure if I should power through the story and then do side quests, do side quests then story, or mix it up. Or just ignore the side quests altogether. Back when we last played, the side quests were fun, but then they started to drag on long after finishing the story quests on a planet.

Blogging

There are a ton of great blogs and posts I have in Feedly. Following 40 to be exact, and growing. I'm trying to go through it when I can, so keep an eye out for my likes and comments. They're coming, I promise, I just need a little more time, please don't break my legs.

I have a cool blog post project I've been working on for a bit. It's my theory about the Purple guy in Five Night's at Freddy's. It'll be my longest post yet and hope to get it out soon.

Life

June is going to be a busy month for me. I'm planning on moving in with my brother, so I'm trying to finish projects for work and help them find a replacement. I have until July before I move, so I have time. 

After my move, I'll have some time to myself before I try to look for another job. During which I plan to do some side projects like working more on my blog here, going back and doing more Youtube videos and starting up my a web comic I've been cooking up for a while. If anyone has any advice doing a web comic, I'd love to hear it. How should I host it, any legals I should be aware of, and any good resources I can read through. That sort of stuff.

The Newbie Blogger Initiative has been a great experience, and I loved getting your comments and replying to them. This has definitely been added to my list of lifetime achievements.

  1. Oh! Looking forward to your Purple Guy post. I do enjoy FNAF theories and brainstorms. :)

    Also, Starbound can eat your life!

    2. Thanks, Aywren, me too. I've spent hours reading and watching it. Scott Cawthon struck gold with the story he concocted.

  3. I know more about web hosting and design than web comics in particular, but one way to go would be to have a self-hosted Wordpress blog and use some plugins (ex. https://wordpress.org/plugins/webcomic/) and themes (ex. http://comicpress.org/) to make things easier. Although it seems that wordpress.com also has some options for web comics (https://en.wordpress.com/comics/). Or there's a bunch of websites that specifically do web comics which I found just by searching for "web comic host".

    If you need any help with self-hosting or design, I'd always be willing to help. :)

    1. That's real great of you, Faeldray. Thanks so much. I'm looking through these now and saving them. I'll be sure to hit you up if I get snagged on something.
