Healing
2 years ago
So, some of you out there know that I've had what I called the snap sometime between March 5 and March 17th.
Something went on in my head and I heard something go snap.
Art became hard to do.
Work became far less interesting and desirable to engage in.
I really didn't want to engage in any activity, one way or another.
Yes, I've been to the doctor about this. Yes, they're concerned. Yes, I am healing and the fact that I was able to finish some artwork this week is a good sign that I am actually healing.
I enjoyed making that picture and including my good friends
eractor1001 and 
drake-darkscale in it. I like making inclusive and activity based images with friends. I even made some new friends with that image and it's awesome to collaborate with some new people. That was good feels.
However, I had a good long walk with a good friend of mine recently who gave me a verbal ass kicking. The result of that conversation is:
I have a universe to make and to get out of my head. However, I am just one person. One person with a herculean task on top of my daily other duties, like work and household things.
I actually need to hire people to help me out and I have set it up where I have this as a line item in my monthly budget now.
I just need help. :)

My answer: "I'd like to. I want to. I should. But I'm also healing and so a lot of what I will do in the meantime is quick little art things like the past week. Comic stuff will come, but I need to learn to walk a bit more before I run a marathon once again."
Hope you will keep on healing, man.
I hope your hiring goes well.
Yeah! your universe sounds very interesting! I wish you find someone who helps with that. And I think your friend is right, if that is bugging you, you may try to take it out of you head, or it could vanish or worse... interfere with any other ideas you have... even it can cause the sudden blocks
my suggestion is that you take it little by little without being eager, I mean, write some notes when you can, maybe a list of rules? or a brainstorm? I haven't done that but I bet that could make better my ideas
I send greetings Kyro!
I appreciate the message though, this sort of things really does help. :)
You've got this.
Send me stuff you need work done on.
Most of the work that needs to occur will be visually and VR based, but I am sure that your own sphere of expertise, writing and such, will be most appreciated as we have to describe some of the things we're doing. Right now, we're on focus groups on where we should focus. It appears to either be NuYu or Crimson for the first Sprint.
