I don't like longwinded journals, or even writing journals, period. So here goes: an attempt at a condensed journal.

Recently I lost a lot of interest in commissioning art. To anyone that pays particular attention to my FA this may have been obvious. Aside from some pending commissions from earlier this year (and some from even further back) and any art that I may be gifted, I don't see myself commissioning anything else in the foreseeable future.

This isn't in response to anything anyone's done. I haven't had any negative experiences with any artists or figures in the furry fandom. Rather, I've just felt my priorities shift. I only mention this because my prolific commissioning habits are, in part, what I'm known for here. Looking back I think near-obsessive art commissioning was just my way of trying to fill holes in my life with something--anything--because my actual life was lacking real meaning or direction--same could be said with my obsessive gaming and trophy-hunting habits (in the span of three years I got something like 100+ platinum trophies).

I'm recognizing the unhealthy patterns in my behavior (and their source)... and trying to instate some positive changes in my life.
