Suffered a personal loss; going to pause Patreon.
a year ago
I just learned that a very dear friend died of a heart attack today.
For the last two years, he was one of my landscaping clients, and I did things around the house for him and his wife, building up a very tight bond and friendship. I didn’t have many IRL friends in Richmond when I returned home a few years ago. He was one of them and was very important to me. I hope he knew that.
This is hitting me very hard. I wish I could have my friend back.
I’m going to freeze my Patreon this month and possibly next and take some time off. It’s hard to feel creative when your heart is broken. I was also already going through some bad depression towards the beginning of the month and wanted to keep quiet about that and push through, but this has kinda cinched it.
I was on such a roll the previous month and feel disappointed that I couldn’t keep that up for you guys, but I know it’s not my “fault”. This happens. I’m just learning how to roll with these punches.
I’ll still post some art soon, although I may need some time before resuming production.

Always have in memory the good things you lived with him, and don't worry about this site.
The trick to beating it is to get back up.
You can do it yourself, or it becomes easier with the aid of friends.
Your character is defined not by your struggle and failures, but by how you get back up and deal with them.

I hope you feel better soon man <3
Sending good vibes your way!

If you need me, you know where to find me, lovely. All my best to both of you.
the more natural thing for you to do, is to heal — don't force something you know you will only half-ass
and fuck those people who aren't understanding of your situation: it is they who are the monsters / miscreants
not you, corve
