On the small scale, I'd like to:
-Reach 200 subs on LOSTLAND before Chapter 2 ends
-300 subs before Chapter 3 ends
Pretty much decided to make it a personal goal to see 100 new readers per chapter. It doesn't sound like a whole lot, but it's gotten me out mind set of "build it and they will come", it's been getting me to do a lot of legwork and really get out there and campaign like crazy for this comic of mine.
Goals on the bigger scale:
-Get LOSTLAND into Spiderforest, or any other collective
-Get Patreon/Ko-fi going
Seeing LOSTLAND be part of a webcomic collective would be a pretty major milestone after going it alone for years. I gave it a shot last year, and while it didn't work out, the great news was that they did like what they were seeing! So the plan is to try again once Chapter 3 is complete.
It would also be nice to help pioneer some newer collective, if they ever crop up. Webcomics could use some more collectives to represent the countless styles out there. Who knows?
The patreon thing is another major one, but tougher on my kinda thin spare time. Once things start looking better for the comic, and people seem more interested in supporting it in some way, I think that'll be the point where I really dive in. Given the shakey state of employment these days, it would definitely be great to get myself as self funded as possible, but that's a long, steep hill to climb for now
