Navigating on the seas of life

Hiya, haven't done much in the way of updating my site lately, been a bit busy all over the place, coming up with characters and deciding on character designs and storylines, while also taking the time to attempt to improve my drawing ability, while also pretending to do Tafe work, that I really should be doing...especially if I plan on getting a job, in web design or something similar.
So currently my focus is on getting Sandhurst academy...may need a different name, seems (noun) academy is quite frequently used on the interwebs.
The cast has already grown to close to twenty characters, though for the first chapter I'm only really focusing on three characters and I've started plotting out how I want to do the first chapter. I'm hoping I won't do a repeat of this year with Newstory, take so long to get new pages out that I lose the feel of the story and get sick of it, and when I do get it started, maybe in two months I'll keep to a fairly regular schedule per say. Not sure how much I want to do a week, probably will have a go at a couple of practice pages to see what speed I can produce them at.
Anywho the main character of the new comic, is named Kayden Yamada, an Australian born japanese boy, set in the fictional town of Sandhurst, which if you go look on maps, shouldn't really exist, and won't be given any firm geographic location, it's just an inland city near several lakes, though I'm gonna base it a little off my home town.
And that's it for revelations for the plot, as I draw satisfactory sketches I'll put them up on the website, at the moment I'm working on a group shot, which will feature five or more characters, needs plenty of work though still...
Anywhoist Inuyasha's quite a good manga!

Sayonara folks!
