The First Vlog of 2016

In this episode I wanted to replace my old introduction video (because the old one was filmed back when I lived in Arizona) and talk a bit about what I want to cover on my YouTube Channel.

I also wanted to iterate the fact that videos and video editing are, for me, just a hobby. I have NO intention of becoming the next big YouTuber (whatever that means) or becoming a celebrity. I just want to make this series to have fun and let you in on the fun, as well.

(By the way, if you want to get video updates a day early or get to see video and comic scripts, that’s what my Patreon page is for).

Also, yes! I now have a personal Patreon page to fund projects like Thoughtful Dinosaur and The Legend of Jamie Roberts. If you haven’t checked it out yet, please do! There’s tons of perks available.

I want to reiterate – my personal Patreon page has nothing to do with Validation. Validation has its own Patreon page. The personal one is for all the other comics I make.

I gotta hit the drawing board again. That’s all for now.

Thanks for watching!

You. Are. Awesome.

So no more writing 1000 words per day, no drawing two sketchbooks per day (though this year I’ll do my best to draw at least one each day, just to make sure I don’t get rusty), no more overloading myself with daily chores.

This year, I aim to… Continue reading “New Goals for 2016”
