So it's been a long time since I've posted anything and now thats it's been a month without any progress or sign of me getting better I feel like I have to let you guys know something. For the last 3 years I've suffered from an intestinal disease called Ulcerative Colitis. Its not curable and when its bad it'svery debilitating. I've worked to combat it but the problem is that I also suffer from severe depression and lately it has become so unmanageable that I can't even bring myself to feel joy from being creative anymore. I won't go into great detail but bottom line is I dont know when I'll be back with an update. I want to be able to do this full time and accomplish my dreams but at this time I don't think I have the physical or mental strength to keep it up. I hope you understand. I'll try to get better soon so I can get back to creating. I just didn't want anyone to keep waiting on me when I dont have any faith in myself getting back on this horse. Thanks.

Long term health conditions make you reevaluate your life and it is a scary thing to do (got my own here). Please look after yourself and don't put too much pressure on yourself for your dreams. Dreams can shift pace and shape to fit you. I love your work but your physical and mental health come first.

Thanks. I think I really needed to hear that.

Take all the time in the world. You don't need to be sorry for anything. The fact that you even shared what is going on with your personal life is a lot. I do hope that the pain gets better. As for doing art if it is not what you enjoy right now then just don't do it. You need to focus on yourself to get better.

So, I've been doing a ton of commissions lately and I have not been able to get through my storyboard so My Ghost & My Monster will not be updating with a normal chapter. Sorry! But I will have something for you guys on that day. :) In the meantime, have a look at the art I've been doing for Rex Alopex! And If you're into Twitch, check out his channel!

I realize I am late and the Cactus Flowers chapter is coming today, don't worry. My family is visiting so it slipped my mind. I need to proofread so it'll be out by 6AM at the latest.
On a side note: My Ghost & My Monster might not be out on time either. I will try to get it out by the 30th, but this visit has taken a lot of my time so I'm not making any promises. I'll update again on that in a few days.

I'm taking a break from Cactus Flowers for this week to catch up on some things. So no new chapter tonight. I'll be updating like normal starting next week. In the mean time you guys can use the time to catch up on all the chapters that came out during inksgiving! The plot is about to thicken! >:D
