BACK TO TWO TIMES A WEEK?

June 20th, 2007 | by Tom

This is just a random bit of news. Take it for what you will.

On Monday, Cami and I went to see Ben Folds and John Mayer in concert. After Ben’s set, while they were setting the stage for Mayer, Cami and I were sitting and talking. Out of nowhere she says, “I think you should do Theater Hopper two times a week.” It hit me like a ton of bricks. “Why?” I asked. “Because I think it’s killing you to only do it once a week,” she said.

As you recall, I reduced the number of strips to once a week in order to spend more time with Cami and Henry. I’m still updating three times a week, having replaced the comics with movie and DVD reviews on Mondays that some of you really love (and some of you really hate) and random sketches on Friday (which almost everyone is indifferent to).

Now since things with Henry are kind of settling down and because I pretty much only work on the comic after he’s asleep, Cami has given me this “permission slip” of sorts to increase production on the site.

The problem is, I’m not sure what to do with it.

Cami suggested that I update with two comics a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I think that’s a bad idea. I’ve gotten you guys into the habit of coming to the site every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for almost 5 years. It would be pretty jarring to switch to Tuesday/Thursday.

So, the obvious solution to me is to continue doing reviews on Mondays (tossing in sketches when I don’t have a review) and doing the comics on Wednesday and Friday.

I don’t know when this would begin, but I’m mulling my options and hopefully it will happen soon. I do feel a little rusty, though, so it’s intimidating. When you’re updating three times a week, you don’t have time to think about what you’re doing. You gotta be quick with the funny! But since I went to one comic a week, I could be a little lazy with how I scheduled my time. I need to draft a new schedule and figure out how things will work in the New World Order.

Anyway, I guess I just wanted to tease at a possible change in the future and I was curious as to your response. If you have anything you want to share, go ahead and leave it in the comments!
