So, I suppose this is as good a time as any to say this, but I've decided to retire, at least for now, my writing career with Dofantasy.

There are many reasons for the decision, but the long and short of it is that I'm not really having fun anymore. You do something long enough, and it stops being a hobby and starts being a job, and I've been on the job for over a decade.

That said, I do have one project completed and submitted and another that I'm trying to find the time and energy to finish up. I'll probably include a similar "farewell" in the last comic for those who never visit the forum, and I'll check in from time to time to answer any questions that may come up.

So there are a couple more to go. I don't know for sure that I won't ever return, so I won't say this is the final farewell... just a goodbye for now.

I have nothing but respect for an artist that knows they're ready to call it. It does sound like we'll be getting a proper send off to your stories though and for that I'm endlessly grateful. The Group X series keeps feeling like it's building up to a climax. Thank you for 10 great years of comics. If the inspiration comes back I'll be the first to welcome you back even if it takes another 10 years.

Your Loyal fan

I can't tell you because I don't know myself. I never had much plans for them beyond that they belonged to Chyou.

I've always been a proponent of thinking the reader plays just as much of a role, if not more, than the author or author's intent. So with that said, I'd say that whatever you come up with is just as valid. Do with them as you will, basically. :22

Start drawing or commissioning fan art. I'll get around to it eventually.
