Organising the process

Lately, I've been thinking of ways to speed up the process of my much larger, more ambitious comic projects. Now, here's the thing: since they're so long, it would be quite intimidating to work on them one at a time. It's a huge commitment and I'm kind of fickle, so I'd be afraid of losing interest, especially since they're projects that I'm really passionate about. Since I don't want to have to go through all that, I've spent a long time trying to come up with a plan to manage my projects and my time working on them.

Here's the plan: I'm going to divide those big projects into acts. Which I have done long already, since that's part of the storywriting process, but now I'm chosing to implement that aspect to use in my time-management.

It'll work something a bit like this...

First, the conditions:

• I have 2 big projects: Project A and Project B
• A has 3 Acts and B has 5 acts
• A is Set years Before the events of B and their Stories Aren't Overlapped

And here's the pattern I plan on undertaking:

1. Project A, Act 1
2. Project B, Act 1
3. Project A, Act 2
4. Project B, Act 2
5. Project A, Act 3
6. Project B, Act 3
7. Etc.

And if any new major projects pop up, I'll figure stuff out from there.
