Hey guys!
I thought about this for months, and after a long period of Silence I have now decided to part ways with Tapas for various reasons. I'm not really in the right state of mind to properly list every reason and I am really not up for debate since I'm abandoning this account. However, this is not by any means your fault at all. I'd like to address a few reasons why I'm leaving to clear up any confusion.
I just don't really feel like I'm growing or improving. Not only do I always felt the pressure to post but at the same time, I felt like everything I do is rushed and lacks planning. On top of that, I do this for free. Actually that's another reason. Yes, I would like my comics to be free-to-read. But I'm also currently struggling. My schedule is jam-packed with a lot of stuff to do like merch production. Pushing out free comics without getting anything in return really hurts my productivity. Plus I've lost trust in this site, but that's another can of worms....
This doesn't mean at all that I want to quit comics. Recently I got a website. I'm planning to move there, I want my comics free while I get paid. Plus I'd like reformat my comics to comic book style for future self-publishing. My main webcomic's story is 100% done, just had difficulty drawing it all. I'm using this as an opportunity for a bunch of stuff, like completely rebranding, fleshing out my characters and providing in-depth character sheets(not that anyone cares, it's just for personal reference) drawing backgrounds, learning the basics of graphic design and comic panelling so my layouts don't look ugly, and most importantly! Actually finish 50 pages before I publish anything
I don't want to have new readers wondering why my stuff aren't updating, so instead I just deleted the episodes and compiled them all to a folder.

Thank you so much for being here with me and I'm really sorry I disappointed you all!
I hope you wish the best for me. Goodbye!
