Kinda hard to write this and not sound dramatic, maybe this sentence sounds dramatic. How tf to be normal question mark.
Anyway.
2024 was pretty ass. Some ups for sure, but honestly my mood has been worse this year.
Art has been really hard, like REALLY hard. Constantly burning out. I’d do one big piece a month and then hate the idea of doing anything else. So safe to say immm gonna slow down on art.
Tho I do wonder if my monthly OC challenge at the start of 2024 just ruined it for me.
I’m gonna pull away from social media this year. Not fully, but drastically. I wanna just keep to some friends on discord and I wanna try new things. Maybe college, but I don’t really wanna go back, I don’t know what I wanna do anyway. Never have.
I’d like to try new things, try and find… something of a living. Kinda wish I wasn’t such a scaredy cat about money stuff online and just do comms and patreons like most other artists out there lol.
It just terrifies me and I have NEVER trusted it. Idk how to fight that fear.
I say stuff like this every year and never do anything new, so idk what to expect lmao.
THAT BEING SAID!!!
One positive change I started in November was going for daily walks and aiming to lose weight. That’s something I have been successful in. So… lil steps at least.
Might look into video editing and making gaming content. Can’t stream tho, which obviously sucks.
I do have some art plans but I’m not gonna say anything about em.
Sooo yeah, we’ll see. Not looking forward to this year, or the next, or the next, and the next… ugh.
I'm also somewhat ill rn so I could just be grumpy af.
Good luck with 2025 🎉

Truly, I hope things come out better for you in the coming year, and that they stay that way.
I also think it's great idea to distance yourself from social media that bit more. I myself stopped using Twitter/Reddit just over a year ago and keep myself to Discord and gaming clients and FA, which in turn has limited my contact with others, but I'm still able to talk and meet new people on here and Discord, but the spaces feel more relaxed and better than what was going on with social media.
I'm wishing you all the best for this year, either way!
Have a good year, or at least try. And do get better soon!
