I've got nothing
I've been on a regular release schedule for probably the last two years. Steady as a metronome hooked up to a perpetual motion machine. On crack.
Kickman on Sunday.
Java Jaguar on (recently) Thursday.
Splinterlands and sometime Holozing art on Monday.
The Real Superheroines every other day of the week.
But the last couple of days, I've had nothing.
Life has just gotten in the way of living.
I broke up with my girlfriend of the last five years.
And since then, I haven't written or produced anything new. I just can't seem to write any humorous banter.
There is no doubt in my mind that this is a temporary situation. After all Java Jaguar and Kickman began long before we started dating and traveling together. I'll get back to it.
But as of right now, I actually completely finished the artwork for the next Real Superheroines strip (panel 42, possibly the most importnat number in existence) and I haven't been able to write a single word of dialog to complete it.
Full disclosure, I have been drunk for the last 72h hours. I have the rest of the Kickman chapter already written out. And a couple more weeks of Java Jaguar. But The Real Superheroines of Hive Valley has always been written by pants (meaning "by the seat of my pants" with nothing scripted out ahead of time.) So, there may be a delay for the next few days, while I get my act together. I think I can still draw while drunk and depressed, as that has been my experience. Just like I was experimenting with drawing while fatigued from exercise, being drunk doesn't seem to affect my ability to draw. I just can't write.
My creative muse just isn't there right now. Sorry. I will be back.
Now I'm curious, what image will show up as the thumbnail for this post. Probably my face since I don't have a comic to post.
Oh dear, breakups are always bad, wish you strength and new opportunities.
Hey, sorry to hear that. It must be tough, so take time to work through things. We can wait, but we want to see you back creating.

Sorry to hear this my friend.
That is a tough one.
Take care of yourself.
I will keep you in my prayers
This is what I see in PeakD:
Take your time dude! My creativity is the first thing out the window when I'm stressed... and since your income is based on your creativity, I'm hoping you can spend some time just grieving the changes in your life.
I think unfortunately we're all so pressed by society to be productive all the time always continuously that we never get a chance to actually work through our various stressors. It can't be good for us.
