Ok so, I recently had a break up with fresco which is the drawing app I use on my iPad. While we were on a break I tried out procreate. I do love it, I just love the crisp vector lines in fresco! 
          So anyway I tried procreate and colour and now most of my friends prefer the colour version, but I still very much love the crispy black and white style. 
          If you have a moment can you check out my insta to tell me which you prefer? Or I might add it as an extra page to my current TAP story with a poll…yeah maybe I’ll do that too.
          But link to insta here in the meantime:

Thank you so much for the reads and the follow!!!! I really appreciate it, friend!!!! :D 

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!

So I'm going to try and update every Thursday. If you want earlier updates I'll be uploading chapters a week earlier on my Patreon (free there too). 
          
          Work this week has been more full on and I've tried to draw more in my free time this week which has been nice actually! I'm very out of shape as I kind of broke up with art years ago because you have to be good at personal PR which I am not. I am now in a job I'm meh about and personal PR seems to be a growing part of it, and I'm like, WHY!? This is why I stopped pursuing my dream job so wtf am I doing it in my back up job? So here I am, trying to make another go at it. Having a few more dates with art and seeing where things lead...
          That's enough ramble. Anyway. Check latest chapter if you are keen!

Hey everyone, 
          I started back at work full time this week so of course I've had time to smash out two new chapters. Thank fuck for slow start Januarys. I've almost finished my first two pages of my graphic novel for this story too. I'll be uploading it to my patreon later this month. Most of my patreon is free if you want more, and of course there's also my instagram @rory.atwood for art updates and progress! 
          
          thanks so much for your support <3
