Webcomics and Update Schedules
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Jan. 29, 2016
Somewhere between “all the time” and “hardly ever” lies an ideal update schedule.
I’ve read several times that frequent content updates is one of the best ways to increase traffic to whatever it is you’re creating online, but of course both your audience and yourself need to be ...
Moving the Rock
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Jan. 25, 2016
The years following my college graduation, the most frequent questions asked by my peers and older adults were: “What did you major in?” and “What do you do?” Initially, the questions would bother me because I could not give a direct answer to the second question without feeling inadequate. What ...
Drunk Duck Improvement Drive update!
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Jan. 23, 2016
As you may or may not know we're currently trying to upgrade features on DD and fix some bugs like adding stats tracking for every comic and PQ notifications. But to do that we need money to pay the programmer so we're running an Indiegogo campaign! . Our goal ...
Breaks and Hiatuses
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Jan. 22, 2016
Hiatuses are a necessary evil in the webcomics world, it seems. Most webcomic artists can’t devote all their attention to their comic, and will at some point find that life – school, work, or family – gets in the way of regular updates.
In terms of maintaining readership, it’s best ...
Accents, dialects, and different languages in comics
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Jan. 15, 2016
Accents, patterns of speech and the like can be a useful tool in introducing characters. In a film or tv show, a character's accent can immediately reveal the character's nationality or social background. And of course, we've all been conditioned by Hollywood movies to identify the bad ...
2016 Comic Goals and a New Community Project!
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Jan. 1, 2016
Happy 2016, everyone!
I'm not big into New Year's resolutions generally, but I do have a few this year. I read 24 books in 2015 (not including partial books read for school) and would like to do the same in 2016. I'd like to improve my reading ...
The Freewheelin' 2015
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Dec. 28, 2015
Two-thousand fifteen started off with Kroatz wishing everyone in the Drunk Duck forums “growth, satisfaction, and purpose, even if it comes with an almost equal amount of suffering and loss.” I do not believe any statement made in this last year comes as close to this to sum up the ...
Merry Christmas, Ducks!
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Dec. 25, 2015
I hope you will all forgive me for not putting together a proper newspost this week! I've just finished baking a ginger cake (to be served after dinner tomorrow with warm lemon sauce), and I'm about to settle down with my family to watch A Muppet Christmas Carol ...
