Thursday Update, The Year In Review
4 years ago
I was waiting until I was in a better mood so I could spin this more positively, but a better mood never stuck around for very long. Honestly, anyone who's commissioned me in the past six months or so could probably tell that this hasn't been a great year anyway, and I do thank you all for your patience (or forgetfulness in a couple situations, which, yeah that felt great...). For anyone whose patience has reached its limit, you are welcome to request a refund. I keep enough cash on hand to refund a portion of my orders at any given time, so you are welcome to it; no hard feelings.
In summary, it hasn't been a fantastic year. Obviously had its ups to go with the downs. Important people entered my life, I feel like I connected better with friends, I feel like I made improvements in my art, Guilty Gear Strive came out. But it's just been kind of hard to ignore the weight of the rest of the year at this point. Any attempt I make to try and move forward seems to stumble, and costs huge amounts of time and energy. Sometimes it feels like the universe is just kind of conspiring to make me to just brute-force my work until I can't anymore (which will come much sooner than later, at this point), and I'm just out of ideas and energy and I'm still feeling overwhelmed by my workload.
I don't really want to get into details, as this isn't the place for it. I'm staying positive, as I usually do, for the coming year but I frankly don't have a plan anymore. I don't want anyone to worry about me or anything, I always figure out a way to pull through, it's just that it feels like it's taking longer than usual this time.
I hope your holidays are happy enough for the both of us! I'll try to get an upload done after Christmas.

As for the rest of it, just take the time you need, don't need to be superman out here! Just be comfortable when you can alright? Stay golden.
Be sure to have some good rest, all work and no play does nasty things to one's mind
I wish for you to have comfort and that you get even more victories next year!
I feel the difficulties moving forward, especially this year. I got to test the brinks of what I could take and you know what? Sometimes surviving is enough. Don't sweat progress, you are probably making more than you think. Rest when you can and keep yourself ready for the next push.
I can empathize with that struggle. A lot of good and bad has happened this year and it seems to be beating up a lot of people, myself included. And in a way I hope not having plan might help you, living in the day and focusing on the tasks at hand can help ground / focus you. Even though I know from personal experience the dread of tomorrow and it's uncertainty is always looming.
If you ever need a place to vent or just to chat and get away from that stuff my DMs are always open and at this point I consider you a friend. Things will get better Night, it just takes horrendous amounts of time it feels like.
But I remember good times too, hell i had to think to find bad moments.
It is not a big consolidation but focusing on good moments and putting bad behind is really helping in long run ^^
I know you probably get hundreds of notes from people but if you need to vent or advice, my dms are open and im usually free to give an advice.
Hell that goes to anyone reading it.
But just in case, good luck. Do not thank me or you will jinx it :p
