Taking A Break
Added 2024-11-13 02:31:36 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
Just a heads-up—I’ll be taking a break from drawing starting November 30. I’ll also be pausing Patreon for December, so no charges for that month.
So, why the break?
Well, after two major typhoons in two weeks (with more on the way), some family health stuff, and ongoing damage to our home, things have gotten pretty intense. I’m just drained and need to step back a bit to handle all this real-life stuff. It’s all been a lot, and I’m just tapped out for the year.

It’s tough seeing so much of what we’ve built this year kind of unravel in just a couple of weeks, but that’s just how life rolls sometimes. You win some, you lose some.
I’m not sure what’s around the corner, but right now, I’ve got to focus on taking care of my health, my family, and our home. I don’t wanna sound grim but we’re kind of in a Survival Mode situation at the moment. It’s really intense.
I’ll be back next year, hopefully recharged and ready to dive back into comics and manga. If you’re still here when I return, thank you so much for sticking with me. And if not, well, I’ll keep building up my dreams, one comic page at a time, like I’ve done since 2011.
Thank you for understanding.

2024-11-13 02:43:59 +0000 UTCHey, I don't know if there's a way to do so but I'm willing to just pay the month to help you out in what little way I can. Can't have art without the artist after all.
