Hello, guys, how are you?

I just came to tell you about a few changes I'm going to make because I have a lot of things to do lately, something that has been affecting me mentally as well as physically.

I will now be posting two strips a week in order not to overload myself with work and to avoid not updating anything. This is how it would look like:

One week we would be having Squid Game and The End of Past Memories and the next week it would be The Walking Dead and The Beginnings and so on and forth.

That's how it would stay until I can organize my work. TEOPM is about to come to an end, so I don't think these changes will stay for long.

That said, thank you very much for your patience and for continuing to be here in spite of the times I have left you without an update. I am a committed person and I don't like not delivering what I am supposed to. But now is the time to listen to what my health is telling me and I feel it will be a good change to help me continue with my work.

I didn't get to post Squid Game today, so tomorrow (April 19) we start with The Walking Dead and The Beginnings. Next week we have Squid Game and The End of Past Memories.

Thank you.

These last few years I have learned to do a lot of things. Among them, being able to tell a story through a comic.

But you also have to be self-critical and accept that you are not perfect.

And even though my comics receive a lot of support from you, I, as the creator, know that I am not perfect and that there are many things I need to improve. I'm not a professional and I'm still learning (and I will learn something every day).

I know I'm not the best at drawing, I know I could do better; but if there's something that you as followers of the comics should keep in mind, it's that I don't only work on them. I work on other things and the time I have to draw is not enough, so I have to look for shortcuts so that I can still give you an acceptable quality in my comics.

When someone comes to criticize something when I don't ask for it, it's too much of a turn-off for me.

I am someone who is very committed, and if I start something, I finish it.

That being said, I hope you are enjoying the comics, evidently from what I just mentioned. Rest assured that all my comics will have their conclusion.

Thank you for being so supportive and accepting them as they are.

I hate to do this sort of thing, but it seems I've reached the point where my mental health is at a rock bottom. I need to see for myself first, which is why I've decided that for the next two weeks, no comics are going to be updated. Since I have not been mentally well these past few weeks, I have not been able to concentrate on drawing upcoming parts for the upcoming strips, which has resulted in not having any upcoming parts to release. But I also don't want to take this break beyond three weeks. I have a very serious mental health problem, and although I often joke about it, it is something that has really affected me, meaning procrastination. Tomorrow, I want to set a goal for myself to try to procrastinate as little as possible, finish things I have pending and make progress on everything I haven't done. If you've noticed these recent parts of the comics somewhat lazy, it's because I haven't been feeling well, and they're done against the clock due to the fact that there are no upcoming parts to be published, and I hate to do things in a hurry. I prefer to take my time and do things the right way.

I hope that starting tomorrow, a more active, less stressed and more energetic Pauly can be born. It's a goal I plan to accomplish and not let go by the wayside. I hope you can understand and that you will give me all your support in my next trajectories. It is not easy to apply them, but sometimes it is a must; and my body is already telling me, "it's time."

The Walking Dead is coming back on September 16.

Thanks for your patience.

I can see how many of you were a little disappointed not to see more of what Pauly was like as a baby. But I need you to understand something:

Yes, there were ideas to go more in depth about it, but once reading it, it was very boring and slow. There wasn't much to tell from the perspective of a 1-year-old baby. That's why there was such a sudden time jump.

This doesn't make the comic any less entertaining, I guarantee you're going to like what you're going to see next.

There might be occasions where some drawings regarding baby Pauly will be shared, but I can't tell a story. I assure you that there is very little that can be told, and it will get boring to you as readers.
