Retirement

So, I'm retiring from comics, after deciding I don't have the resources, the support, the energy, the space, the peace of mind, or the time to continue producing comics. You should see my room, it's like something out of Harry Potter. It's a 15 x 20 shithole, and the floor is covered in clutter and crumbs, hence making it not very  conducive for creative activity. I have other creative activity I'll probably pursue for a living. But rest assured it won't be webcomics or regular comics. Too unstable. Too much competition. But mostly this story has to do with surviving parental abuse from 63 year old stubborn ass face pharmacists who think they're god's gift to humanity.

While there are chances I could come out of retirement, it's looking pretty doubtful that could happen. It mostly has to do with money and support and their not being enough of here. Certainly not enough for me to do it for the rest of my life.

And with that,

I am

p.s. - Now hold on a minute, children, this could all be me getting overburdened with emotions, stress, abuse, and the pressure of running one of the 10 most popular webcomics online today (if imitation mimicry from my peers is any indicator, to say the least). Maybe my audience and fans will get lucky and will find out I'm coming out of retirement 6 months later, because the pressure of running one of the most popular webcomics in the world relented. Also I'm considering giving my storyline an ending and making the storyline finite, as that seems to be how all indie comics operate: on a limited bases, to prevent their creator from blowing his brains out because of all that bullshit.
