I know, I know, this isn't
new news, but here is my official announcement:

After six years, December 28th will be the final
DAR! strip! Yay!
I'm so, so grateful for all the wonderfully positive things that have come into my life as a direct result of this comic and I am even more excited to focus my energy on my completely new projects.
It's all in the above link, but I just wanted to say 'thank you' again.
Thank you to everyone who has been reading my dumb little journal comic for the last six years. Thank you for buying my books. Thank you for writing me kind letters. Thank you for supporting me.
I'm so happy to have had an audience to share my life with and I hope people will be just as excited as I am when my new projects launch.
So thank you again and yay!
Man, I am fucking stoked :D
