NERDINESS RELOADED
I am easily obsessed with lists, numbers and statistics. In July 2007 I counted how many pages and panels of comics I had drawn in my life. Today I felt the ominous urge to count how many pages and panels I have drawn since then …
Eva
Postman Blues (from page 5): 21 pages / 129 panels
Asbestos Hearts: 39 / 210
Genital Tattoos: 1/ 7
She’s a Killing Machine: 22 / 52
Ahimsa: 1 / 8
How I met the Leopard: 1 / 9
Driftwood (from chapter 7 page 6): 14 / 96
WTF cliffhanger: 1 / 1
Hourly comic day comic: 8 / 26
Suicidal Babes and Smokers: 1 / 5

109 pages / 543 panels
(All-time total as of today: 531 / 2794)

The numbers for 1993–July 2007 were 422 / 2251. Meaning that in those years I drew by average 21,6 pages and 115,4 panels a year.
July 2007–December 2009 I’ve drawn by average 43,6 pages and 217,2 panels a year! This implies a 101,8 / 88,2 percentage point increase! (More pages with slightly less panels.)
Yaaaaay…………fail.
V`(oo)´V
Because during those first 19,5 years I had several years when I did not draw one page of comics at all. 21,6 pages a year is pretty lame (unless maybe you are a super-genius who specialises in really short but extremely deep comics, like Yoshiharu Tsuge). 43,6 isn’t that impressive, either.
SO! I shall pledge to improve myself!
Until December 8th 2010 I am going to aim at doubling my yearly average again! In other words I am going to attempt drawing approximately 87 pages in the following year! (-_-)/
