It’s been years since I last produced a strip for my comic Jeremy (Just Turned Nine)*, although I’ve had a couple of stories in assorted stages of completion for … well, years. My plan is always to secretly finish these stories, then suddenly launch them on the world and be all “YO! Jeremy, y’all!” and bask in the surprise, glory and adulation. But, lacking an incentive to publish these - not being under a deadline or an obligation or anything - I put them aside, month after month.The thing is, I want to return to Jeremy - it’s the closest thing I have to a passion, in terms of personal projects. It’s the closest thing I have to good, maybe the best thing I’ve done. But, I lack drive and motivation, so I suck up the hours I could be spending working on it or I put it away and forget about it.So, what I need to do is give myself a deadline, and a public deadline at that, with consequences. So, with that said, I will release a new Jeremy story in March, and if I fail to do that, I will let you punch me in the face at Emerald City Comic Con.Actually, no, that’s stupid, but what I will do is this: If I fail to produce a new Jeremy strip before the end of March, I will donate $500 to the election campaign of one of the more horrible Republican candidates. I can’t decide if Santorum or Gingrinch is the worst, it’ll be one of them.Let me be clear; I don’t have the money to throw away like that, plus Santorum is a ferret-faced oil slick and Gingrinch is a small, wobbly monster. SO it will cause me real pain - twice - to fail to come through on this challenge.So. Yes. New Jeremy by the end of March or I render unto Caesar. I probably should have just done a Kickstarter. (*PS: I know almost none of you know who or what Jeremy is anyway; here’s the link to both Jeremy books, including the very cheap eBook editions, and some of the old strips online)
