So, this storyline. I had such grand plans. But it got away from me. I began it only with half-formed ideas and never full put it together in my head or on paper. It was gonna be epic, with tons of characters and subplots and... ultimately, I just can't do that. I mean, I know I'm technically CAPABLE of doing that, but I didn't do enough planning before I started, and I certainly didn't do enough writing. This whole thing should've been written before I put pencil to paper, but I ended up just jotting down each strip the day before they were due. It was ridiculous.

So I aborted the mission about halfway through. You can see where, about a month ago, I just lost my way and started stumbling around, looking for the exit. It's a mess and I'm more than a little ashamed of myself.
