Due to family medical issues, Requiem is on indefinite hiatus.
An elderly family member of ours took a bad fall on Labor Day night, and we’ve been dealing with the aftermath ever since. Hopefully, things will get sorted out, but as of right now, doing a daily comic is not something my schedule can allow.
Sorry to have this happen, but as everyone knows, real life comes first….and at least we don’t have too many running storylines on the backburner.
Julia Wells, significant other of Ian Caladharas. Julia co runs the Wells Hotel in Erech’s Clocktower District. For those people who have rpg’d in this world: The Wells Hotel is now known as Cytheron’s. Julia and Ian tied the knot in the City of Greyrest in the Crossing Territories.
@Slamlander, Gimme a couple of days and I’ll put my notes together and have it up. And it’s not House V. Municipitality. It’s more like House V. Municipitality V. Judiciary 😉 .
@James Roden, Great!
BTW, I keep my story notes, for my novels, in a wiki. There is no better author’s tool for keeping consistancy on characters, plot, and timelines.
@Slamlander, Heh, One thing you can be assured of, there will not be a Requiem wiki. I’m old school, I actually do everything with pen and paper 😉
Personally though, I’m not a fan of wiki’s though. I’ve heard people talk about how fast they are, but having to learn a special markup language to use them to the max effectiveness doesn’t seem like it is all that fast to me. Of course, that could mean that I’m a little too old school to. 😉
@James Roden, I’m an old programmer (30+ years in the biz) and learning markup syntax is just another part of the business. I don’t make my wikis public. I also create such syntax. Again, it’s what I do in RL. We are starting to do a lot of programmer dox in wikis as well. Ergo, I don’t have the learning curve that you do. 😉
It’s not really the speed, it’s the convenience of not having to do HTML. But, to each their own, eh? Wiki syntax is remarkably easy to learn though.
@Slamlander, You’re lucky. I eventually hit a point with keeping track of computer languages (and I had VB, C++, JS, Java, and COBOL though I don’t admit to the COBOL in public much 😉 ) that learning another syntax just got in the way of what I wanted to be doing, AKA: doing comics 🙂
It’s one of the reasons why I went over to Comicpress for stuff, it was a way to open up more time to do the stuff I really wanted to do 😉
The more I read webcomics , the more I see them as having greater relevance than the “just another comic book ” ( e.g. not literature ).
Will you have a page for footnotes/commentaries/influences, or will I be doomed to re read endlessly ( which I already plan on doing ), pen in one hand , mouse in the other ?
I’ve been doing comments on individual comics at times, and I have a notes page at http://requiem.spiderforest.com/?page_id=2579 that has been kind of a running commentary on things. I’ve been looking into a way to set up anchor tags from individual comics to specific areas of the page (as a way of footnoting things)
