Well, dang it to heck. Not only have I not finished any new strips this weekend as I, uh, meaninglessly vowed a few days ago (and sure, at the time I'm writing this, the weekend isn't over, but I have a lot of other urgent things I need to do, and it's clearly not happening), but I forgot to reletter and upload this strip until the early evening. Well, it's sure a good thing nobody saw that, because nobody knows about this strip and nobody's reading this!
Okay, seriously, why am I bothering keeping the comic up if nobody's reading it? Well, because I do hope to get readers, of course. I'm not quite sure how to go about it, but I haven't put any real effort into it either yet. I'll wait to do that until the site is more presentable, i.e. when I finally have the Cast and Archive pages up and make the site more mobile-friendly, among other things. Those are all things I should have done a long time ago, but... I don't have a lot of free time. Still, the holidays are coming up, and the film industry generally more or less shuts down for the end of December, so I'll have a few weeks I'm unlikely to be working. I have other things I need to get done in that time, too, so I can't spend all my time on Soup, but maybe I'll be able at least to devote enough time to getting those site features up and running. And then maybe in 2024 I can figure out how to publicize the site and maybe start getting some readers...
