50 chapters of TAP!!!
Honestly, hitting 50 chapters feels kind of surreal.
I’ve been building The Atwood Problem for years. Like…literally over a decade at this point. Scenes, characters, worldbuilding, random dialogue, all living in my head long before I ever seriously started posting it anywhere. So finally properly writing it, sharing it, and seeing it slowly become something real has been a really big deal for me.
And I’ve actually started making proper progress on the graphic novel too!!
Obviously a LOT will end up streamlined or cut down for the adaptation because otherwise this thing would become the longest graphic novel known to man but honestly I love writing all the in-between moments and details anyway. The quiet conversations, the domestic stuff, the character dynamics, all the little things that make these idiots feel real to me.
So you guys are getting the full extended version here
The graphic novel itself is coming along slowly…emphasis on slowly.
The last two days I’ve basically been drawing nonstop and I’ve almost finished three cells on one page. THREE.
Turns out graphic novels are a ridiculous amount of work actually.
But I’m really proud of how it’s looking so far and I genuinely think it’s going to be something special once it all comes together.
And thank you to the people who are reading, commenting, voting, messaging me, or just quietly following along with the story. Even if this little corner of the internet is still small, it means a lot more than you probably realise. Especially on the days where writing and drawing feels hard and I’m running mostly on stubbornness and caffeine.
Anyway. 50 chapters feels huge to me.
And we’re still only getting started!
