Rosetta Falls is coming to an end very soon.
It feels strange to be saying goodbye to a project i’ve been working very hard on for the past 2 and a bit years now, but Rosetta Falls will finally be wrapping up soon. I originally intended for the comic to only be about 100 - 120 pages in length and I originally intended for it to be wrapped up by the end of ‘21. I guess it all got away from me a bit, ahahaha. Oh well.
I have the last 6 or so pages all planned out and ready to draw, so expect to see those last pages all uploaded in one big final post.
Once I’ve finished with RF and the last pages are all posted, I intend to write up a longer post (an essay, really) about the making of this comic, it’s conception and inspirations, the actual process of making a longform comic, the difficulties of making a long form comic while being a neurodivergent individual suffering from various mental illnesses, the lessons learned along the way - both practical and philosophical - and ultimately what all this has meant for me over the past two or so years.
I hope you have enjoyed the journey of reading Rosetta Falls thus far if you decided to check it out. If not then that’s okay, there’s already too much stuff to watch/read/play/hear in the world as there is, I can’t exactly expect every single person that happens upon my blog to dedicate their time and energy to my weird, messy, longform comic that they might end up not even liking. If you think you may like to read it at some point, then the whole thing pinned to my blog for the foreseeable future should you want to give it a read in full at some point further down the line. No pressure though, of course.
Once the essay goes up and RF is said and done I intend to take a looong break from making comics, ahahaha. I’ll get into it more in the actual essay itself, but this break has been a long time coming and one I sorely need after two whole years of work. I do intend to make more comics in the future, though next time I aim to make them much shorter and more straightforward in terms of execution, spending several years on one project is extremely taxing and exhausuting and it’s not something I want to repeat with my future projects, for my own sake.
I hope you are all doing well, and I hope you all look forward to the conclusion of this comic that’s been a long time in the making and the accompanying essay.
Thank you, and take care.
