Hey there,

So...my last journal entry was a bit of a downer, I admit. In fact, a lot of things have gone wrong for me this year, hence the radio silence - all of which has put a strain on my life and creative process as a result. In addition to the sensory overload with regards to various social media sites suffering meltdowns left, right and centre.

But I've been trying ways and means of seeing myself through the hard times. Not just with art, but decluttering my room, keeping in touch with friends IRL, practising self-care when possible.

In short, trying to put myself forward more, and seeking solutions instead of focusing on the problems. Because I'm too exhausted to worry about anything anymore 😅

Talking of social media sites...what's everybody using nowadays, in terms of sharing artwork and general chit-chat? I've noticed there've been a number of Twitter / DeviantART alternatives cropping up in recent years, but I don't know where to begin. Otherwise, it'd be nice to focus on Discord more, keeping in touch with mutuals and artists I'm following ☺️

Thanks for reading, and take care!
