I hope you have fun at your first furcon!
I attended an online one early 2021 and that was pretty fun in its own right, but I really wanna go to one in person.

i was tempted to attend an online furcon but i decided against it because i was too busy XD
I am definitely nervous because this will be the first time driving out of state without family, but I will have all my friends along for the trip so im hoping those fears will fade away <3
I will be sure to snap a ton of pictures for you guys!

Hey Willow ^^ I hope you won't be offended if I find this journal a bit of private messag, but accessible to everyone. since you came back here i noticed a lot of continuous work on your part. searching the FA, we got something from you every day. updates, sketches, completed works. I saw that you are working at high speed and the additional load can overload you, so I believe with all my heart that you read everything I write to you, and because of the knowledge of the situation, I refrained from writing to you personally so as not to clutter your work and not to make it more difficult.

There are still new works from you, sometimes those that have iconic copies for the owners. in this way you also broaden your artistic ranges, the more people see these works somewhere, it is your new, potential watcher. I see that the situation has taken such a turn, that you even decided to write a journal about it, I am worried that you will not fall out of this rapidly spinning carousel, because it would be really painful for you, and us ;/ Those who are your best friends for the rest of their lives, will always be here, will never let contact with you fall off. however, you will receive more and more messages over time, your position will not be stable forever, and that is what worries me. you have presented yourself with huge strength and perseverance, which I still admire. sad and teary moments, other tiring and hindering daily functioning. You went through all this in great strides, so I was sure for a long time, and I am still that no matter what stands in front of you, you will always try to avoid it, no matter if it is one small brick or a whole wall.

I think everyone understands your situation here, and if someone orders a work from you and expects it to be finished in a few hours, they better not go elsewhere. your queue list keeps filling up, and in fact it's not hard to see that you just need time. new people may not understand it the first time, but if they give you a chance, and you give them, it will surely end up with two big smiles ;3

in the case of July, I remember the moment when you once mentioned the furry convention, I don't remember whether it was under some work or in a journal, I'm sure it was somewhere in public. I remember that I mentioned there that I can not go there temporarily, note how long ago it was, and in my place, the situation is still in the same place x.x but if you share with me, and with everyone interested, with photos from there, I am sure that no one will have problems to feel in their homes, like there, with you ^w^ I hope you don't see our contact here as worse than in reality, I have no other way of integrating with anyone because of my shy and introvertion. talking with you here, I feel like you are standing next to me, it's such a wonderful feeling, to be absorbed in the conversation so deeply, that you can feel a real connection during the conversation ;3

I am so sorry it took me so long to reply to you! Honestly you are so right, i do tend to overload myself on projects all at once and can quickly become stressed because of it. It is definitely a bad habit of mine haha! I did made sure to take these past couple days away from FA to unwind, thus my lack of response. It is something i need to work on, because the last thing i want to do is disappoint my friends on here a 2nd time with another several month-long absence. I am so thankful that all of my friends here are so understanding and patient, i will forever be grateful to all of you. <3
Maybe one of these days in the future we will be able to meet each other at a convention, but for now i am happy we can continue to chat here on FA ^-^ I promise i will have my friends take a ton of pictures during our trip so you wont miss a thing! <3

it's okay friend ^^ i waited here and i knew you would write back someday, i was sure about it ;3 i think your disappearing here is nothing you have to work on, as long as you are in control of it. breaks are always important. to be honest, the friends you have here are representatives of the best ones you can imagine. I am sure that each of them, along with me, will understand your situation and will just wait for you, no matter what the situation may be. just live your life, you don't have to care for us so much, only if it gives you real joy in your heart, of course in our too ;3 for us, the big treat is just that you are here. I also cannot imagine that I would have to disappoint my friends here by leaving or breaking contact, I do not take such a scenario into my head. however, how you draw the future depends on what comes next. think, analyze, and just take actions ^^ know, that I'm patiently waiting for your photos from there, don't hesitate to post them here ^*^
