Status Report – 041020

Posted on April 10, 2020 10:42 am by A.P. Fuchs

Status Report – 041020:

Busy making comics. I also need to block out a chunk of time to go over some scheduling items because in the near future, Gigantigator Death Machine wraps on Patreon and we start up the new serial novel. The end of The Long Year Five of The Canister X Transmission is also not far off so I need to double check my numbering to make sure we end on the right issue (which will be a double so don’t miss out on that).

Project Rebuild hit another delay due to elements beyond my control so I need to wrestle that down because frustration is starting to set in. (Remember when this used to be a simple process?)

And today is Good Friday, the day we remember when God intervened on humankind’s behalf to reunite us with Him, and a day marked out as a turning point in history.

Hope you have a good day.

Stay safe.

If you need to get in touch, please send me an email. Thanks.

This has been your Status Report for 041020.

Slowing Down to Speed Up: Blogging Schedule Shift

Posted on March 17, 2020 10:09 am by A.P. Fuchs

Slowing Down to Speed Up: Blogging Schedule Shift.

There is a lot on the go. Working at 1000mph has birthed all sorts of pathways and roads to travel down. Problem is, I only have one car.

You get the parallel.

This note is to inform you my new working method is based on the concept of slowing down to speed up. This is healthy for you, healthy for me, and healthy for 2020’s goals and projects as a whole.

So here is the new blogging schedule:

Whenever.

Simply put, the blog is short-term switching over to me posting when I feel like it or have something to say or want to show you something. Knowing me, it’ll still be fairly regularly but not on the Monday-to-Friday-mornings schedule. Going to keep things fluid for the time being. Be sure to check in as part of your Internet rounds, but bear in mind I could be posting any time of day. New posts will also be shared via the social networks as per usual.

We’re at a place with the workload where something relatively large needs to drop to Low Power Mode and the blog was selected.

Be sure to subscribe to my weekly newsletter, The Canister X Transmission. Each issue has a blog headline rundown as to what posted during the week so it’s another simple way to be notified of new content. It goes out Saturdays.

Thanks.

Station Ident – Mar132020

Posted on March 13, 2020 10:17 am by A.P. Fuchs

This is your station ident for Mar132020.

This blog is now reactivated for new content after a temporary hiatus due to my web provider switching this site to a new server. It took longer than expected, no one’s fault. Details were given in my newsletter.

I am . . .

. . . A.P. Fuchs. I’m a writer, artist, and freelancer in pretty much anything to do with publishing. This is Canister X, my official web presence and the Realm of Heroes and Monsters, where we broadcast our pirate signal and hack into the Matrix.

Or something like that.

I’ve been writing since 2000, drawing since before then, and publishing books and comics since 2003.

My various social media presences are:

Ello

MeWe

Twitter

Facebook

Instagram

Pinterest

Tumblr

LinkedIn

WT.Social

YouTube

Ko-fi

My Patreon page is here. It’s a fun place where I post serial novels, essays on the creative arts business, stuff from behind the scenes here in the Great White North at Axiom-man Central, and more. Join me and my other patrons and be a part of something entertaining and interesting with consistent content.

On Saturdays, I send out my newsletter, The Canister X Transmission. It’s a weekly newsletter where we all come together after a busy week, unwind, and kick off the weekend. Presently, we are finishing off The Long Year Five, and Year Six will start before the first half of 2020 is over. Join us.

Tip: If you see an Agent, you do what we do. You run. You run your ass off.

End station identification.

Self-care Day

Posted on February 21, 2020 9:41 am by A.P. Fuchs

As we continue barreling down the 2020 Timeline of All Things at 1000mph, we also need to remember to take time for self-care, so today will be a half day–or self-care day–because I have an appointment that needs tending to if this middle-aged machine is going to keep bringing you books and comics.

Attention is also being given to the workflow behind the scenes because, I’m learning, I can’t approach this business like I did prior to being ill. Different variables, both internal and external, have created a different climate in which to work.

Some retooling is occuring in order to not wind up bed-ridden again.

Yes, I recognize I sometimes talk a lot of publishing flow here on the blog. This is just me getting my ideas up and processed so I can try a mosaic of things, see if they work, and remove and/or add where needed until the mosaic has some form to it and I’m happy with the image.

Enjoy your weekend. Read some movie reviews.

New issue of The Canister X Transmission ships tomorrow.

See you.

Notice: Going Dark for the Week

Posted on February 2, 2020 10:53 am by A.P. Fuchs

Going dark.

In an effort to make sure the reissue and new release schedules are on track, I’ll be offline this week so no blog entries until I return. (I might post something if I need variety but that’s a maybe.) Feel free to check back every day just in case and/or surf the blog for past entries to get caught up on anything you missed. Also, my social feeds are on automated Broadcast Mode so I cannot be reached there. If you’re a Patreon subscriber, this week’s post for the Essays tier will show up in the Patreon feed on your pocket computer (or on the website on the non-pocket computer). It’s an essay on how to always keep your audience engaged.

If you are a client, please use email. If you are a reader and need to reach me, please use email. Please note that email is very low priority so unless I owe you a project (which I can identify by the sender), most likely emails will be replied to upon my return. If it’s an emergency, then you know who you are who has that kind of access.

Enjoy your week, everyone. See you on the other side in Saturday’s newsletter.

To keep busy while I’m away, here are some suggestions:

Surf my YouTube channel and subscribe to check out all the latest videos and be notified of new ones.

Read Gigantigator Death Machine on Patreon.

Read back issues of The Canister X Transmission and be sure to subscribe to receive a letter from me every Saturday in your inbox.

Review the social feeds to the right if viewing this entry on a standard web browser to make sure you and I are connected on your various social networks. If you are viewing this on your computerized telephone, type “A.P. Fuchs” into your social network’s search bar and you’ll find me.

Relax and take care of yourself however that might look like.

See you.

Join me.

Ps. A new chapter of Gigantigator Death Machine just went up on Patreon. Please read it and its previous chapters here.
