Yeah, that's one of the big things holding me back. Ideally, I'd want to like...do a whole damn story arc before starting, but then that starts to conflict with the "DAMN IT I WANT TO SHOW SOMEONE THIS" urge.

...that, and how the hell does building a website even work. Or paying for one.

I know there's Smackjeeves and Comicpress. :|a I'd ideally want something that could be customized to give it a more... I guess legitimate feel, would be the way to word it. For that, I'd need the help of someone who knows coding/HTML/etc, though.

Now that I think about it, I should probably stop fretting over the daunting things like HOW DO I WEBSITE and actually work on material first. Then cross the website bridge when I actually have stuff to have a website for.
