Hey everyone, I have some news to tell you guys.

I'm going on hiatus for a little while, at least until some time next month. There's a lot of things I'm trying to work out and I think I just need some time to recharge my batteries so I can come back with fresh new material. I also need some extra time to work on other projects including my main one that I have in the works, to look for a new job, and basically just get my life and career in order.

I'll probably still be around (hopefully catching up on my reading, commenting and replying) and may post some things on my wall to let you guys know if anything's going on, but I won't be updating. I'm really sorry about this, but after thinking about this for a while, I feel like I really need this break. I promise I'll let you all know when I start updating again.

Stay safe, everyone! I'll be back! ; w ;

Sorry I haven't been commenting much lately, you guys. I've been working on some things and I can't wait to show them to you, but I still need more time before I can start sharing TT^TT It doesn't help that usually takes me quite a while to come up with good replies to all of your wonderful comments (I kind of suck at it sometimes =w=;;)

Anyway, I'm sorry for all the radio silence >_<;;

For some reason, Tapastic isn't letting me upload my comic >_<;; I tried both the 'Publish Now' and 'Publish Later' buttons but nothing happens when I press them. I'm gonna try again some time tomorrow. Sorry about the delay, everyone TT^TT

I've heard some other artists had issues (particularly with scheduled posts). Hopefully gets sorted out soon. :s

Hey everyone! I'm really sorry but I don't think I'll be able to get the comic out today >_<;; My hand has been bugging me for a while and now today it hurts whenever I pinch my fingers or when I have to apply pressure if I pick up anything with weight to it.

I'm not too concerned about it being anything serious yet, but I'm going to give it a break for a bit and try exercising my hand carefully. I'll try to get something out by Sunday if I can! Sorry again about this you guys TT__TT;;
