2023: New plans, no more 50/50 splits, Discord, and more!
3 years ago
This is going to be a pretty short journal (EDIT: okay not really LOL)
2022 is coming to a close, and so far, 2022 is quite a muted year for me. There weren't many big changes in my life, and work life is well... work life (there is more to this, but ultimately, the past is the past). All I can say is, that I did have a blessed year, and I hope 2023 will be the same as well. New challenges await, and new opportunities abound.
I wish everyone a happy 2023!
Moving forward on the fandom side of things:
1.) No more 50/50 splits in art collaborations. Going forward, unless I absolutely love/derive enjoyment in the content, I will no longer accept 50-50 splits. If someone wants to bang (say) Valexia or have her body modified to something that is not her usual body style, the other party is to pay 100% for the content. And even then, permission is still required.
Context: In 2021 and 2022, I've accepted collaboration arts where both parties split the bill 50-50, but I felt that the money I spent was not worth it because the content involves something I am indifferent or not entirely comfortable of. I know quite the number of people who really want to get art with my OCs (especially Valexia) and will be upset with this change in direction, but I guess as part of my New Year's resolution, I am going to be more affirmative and say: 'No', for my own enjoyment and peace of mind.
2.) Discord 'spring cleaning'. I'm part of too many servers, I will be exiting some of the servers which I'm not very active on :3
3.) Hope to resume writing. I've been working at my new job for more than a year now and I'm getting a hang of things. I hope to return to writing and maybe accept writing comms again. But we shall see, no promises!
4.) More one-off OCs to be expected. Other than dragons, I absolutely love rare marine, avian, scalie and cetacean species. Some species I'd love to get anthrofied include: masked boobies, red-crowned crane, northern gannets and electric eels to name a few. The list goes on...
5.) Will upload more music content. Art is still on the way, but there will be times I will post my own compositions as filler.
That's all folks!
Special shoutout to
GibbyEnsign for being a fantastic friend and emotional support. The amount of times I've blasted him about my computer's registry issues and his patience are something I will never be able to thank enough! ^^
