I had half of my novel written when I began posting it on Tapas. I sort of just posted a lot of chapters right away, but I really wish I had just posted one chapter a week. This is a method you can possibly do. It sounds like you have some stuff written, so why don’t you begin posting a chapter of your novel once a week with a timer (so that people will know to expect it will be a weekly ordeal). That way, you can continue to work on your comic while your novel is posting, and then you can work on your novel during your free time.
The only issue would be if you catch up to what you have already written, and then you have no more chapters to put out. Then you’d have to probably focus on both your comic and your novel at the same time. That is currently the boat I’m in.
I started with my novel and then began my comics. I have been posting my novel chapters less frequently since I’m currently writing it as I go now and working on one of my comics. I do wish I had paced out my chapters at the start, allowing me time to focus on my continued writing and comics without feeling like I’m rushing myself or my writing to get my chapters out weekly.
I hope this makes sense lol.
