It's been a while since the last update and it sure is due for one. A lot has happened: The animation industry is going through a lull right now and jobs have dried up which has forced me to look for non-art jobs for meanwhile and that's landed me a job in hospitality at a Navy Lodging. This stressful NPC job has put me through the ringer the last 5 months and only recently settled in the motion of it all.

As of now, I'm just biding my time until the industry ....figures itself out, I've carved out some time where I could work on "Here in the West" again. So, I'm happy to report that I have new pages to share and will be releasing them as they finish. Sticking to a "weekly/monthly" schedule would only add an additional stressor that I do not need right now.

I hope you're excited to see Ramune and Hino's return and seeing where their adventures lead. Let the shenanigans ensue!

All the best,

Hello dear readers.

First of all, Happy New Year to everyone. I hope you are well and I wish you the best year moving forward.

2021 has proved to be another difficult year for me with my father's passing last month. This whole ordeal has been draining and costly. So, I'll need time to recover and build back up again.

Thank you all for reading the series and I hope to see you soon.

Be well, be safe.

A little bonus comic for a challenge I did earlier last week.

Also, I've decided to upload pages as I finish them to relieve some of the stress on my end. My work takes priority and the comic takes a backseat, unfortunately.
