Hello! Sorry to do this to you, but for a little while, I'm going to be updating Widdershins twice a week instead of three times, until I've got a bunch of stuff sorted out, maybe even a buffer built up, who knows! You can read a bit more about my reasoning on my Tumblr here, I hope you understand! So from now on, updates will be Tuesdays and Fridays, and hopefully I can bring my working hours down to something a little more sensible.
Thanks for reading so far, I hope you stick around because I have a lot more wizard stories for you!
Cast: Jack O'Malley, Nicola Barber

There is so much expression in her face when she says Florrie! Well done!
Of course we'll stick around! The comic is awesome!
what cphoenix said!
I was always quite frankly impressed that you managed to get in three updates per week. So I'll miss the extra update but we were always spoiled a bit anyway I think. :P Thanks for the great comic! I've been following for a while now and lately your comic has definetely been the highlight of my week. Especially since it's been getting so exciting lately!!! I'm really loving this storyline. Keep up the good work! I'll definetely be sticking around. :)
"...always a bit spoiled...", definitely! This is such a great comic, thanks for doing it, however often a week.
Yes, what 'Guest' said...
Wow: she's got quite the rate of acceleration, considering the party frock and the shoes. o.O
Not surprising that she'd pick a dress that offers that kind of mobility. I'd be more surprised if she admitted to the aesthetics being a concern, though I'm sure she chose such a nice dress on purpose.
I love it when you draw ladies running in fancy skirts.
I want to at least give Mal credit that he immediately grasped the problem, as well as realizing that Nicola should wait because adding another Barber to the mix might not help the problem.
Your health is more important. Widdershins twice a week is still a fabulous bounty.
As I've said elsewhere, don't feel bad about cutting back. Widdershins wouldn't be enjoyable if we knew you were working yourself to the bone to make it.
I get the feeling that Wolfe can put aside his niceness when the need arises.
Ooooh! Like Fai in that Clamp manga/anime! He's always smiling and nice, and the one time he frowns, you got chills because you know it just got "real" (or whatever the cool kids say.)
So much for the plan.... And two updates a week will be fine.
"No plan survives first contact with the enemy."
On either side, i might add.
Totally understandable!! Widdershins is my favorite web comic and I would rather see updates less frequently than lose such a talented artist!!
Oh, right, Florrie counts as one too. Uh oh.
Interesting to wonder if Florrie would be more susceptible to envy than her other sisters...
Oh, everyone is, you just have to push the right buttons for the right person ^^
I'm so glad Nicola's clever enough not to take Mal at his assumptions.
Less comics a week is better than no comics at all! I'm not going anywhere. I LOVE Widdershins! I can't wait to see what happens next. =D
Augh, and now I have run out of archives and must wait like everyone else! :( But such a good comic! :D
I should probably go work on my NaNoWriMo novel now, but the temptation to draw Widdershins fan art instead is strong!
Can't help but notice.... O'Malley won't look at people if he can help it. I went back and checked and he averts his eyes from everyone. Love that little detail and commitment to the story. :)
What would it possibly want from Florrie?
But don't you remember his little bar fight. Not to mention the fact that he is an ex-German (Prussian if you want to be picky) soldier
Don't worry - we'll be here. Your art and storytelling are "Wizard." Hee hee. No, it's not coming back.
Find the balance!
Best,
D&D
I feared the worst when I read "Sorry to do this to you," but... two days a week? That's practically three days a week! :D
Hope you can get through all the stuff, and definitely looking forward to continuing stories. :)
I thought that she built up a buffer during her breaks and that she would take a longer break if she so needed... how little I know about webcomic work process and how insane I felt the pace of releases were.
I'd take quality over frequency, oh, 90 percent of the time. As long as your comic doesn't stop, I'm cool with it!
Oh bugger!
Y'know, the Barbers are the kind of family where everybody would think of Florrie and Nora as "Barbers" even after they legally changed their names.
