A New Era of my life, possibly
9 months ago
Good news, and bad news at the same time.
A few days ago, when I was preparing to graduate from college and drawing a challenge pic - I got a decent job offer.
I couldn't draw challenge pics for days because I accepted it and prepared the necessary papers.
I can’t be just glad at it. Actually, my feeling was quite mixed these days because of it -
if I start working in full swing in February, my available time as an artist will be greatly reduced.
Plus, the atmosphere in the workplace is so conservative that I might be restricted from drawing things and posting them online...
So I think I'll probably be less active in the future.
I think I could even be forced to stop posting art & videos on 'public' social media like Twitter, BlueSky, YouTube, and Tumblr - or at worst, close my accounts on those services.
I might be active in closed communities to some extent like FurAffinity, DeviantArt, Itaku, but I don't think I can expect active activities like now, at least.
Thanks to the many followers who loved my works, and thanks to my friends who shared the same interests as me.
I have been able to continue my career happily because of you guys.
I DON'T want to consider these words as a goodbye - I also know your anticipations, so I will try to invest as much time as possible in artistic activities even while working.
and I might have time to draw some things till January before I start to work in full swing - so I'm gonna keep drawing my challenge arts this month.
Thanks for everyone who loves me, everyone I love. I'll try to keep what I'm doing, and what I wanna do with you guys :3

I concur with the others. If you have to take a break with your art so that you can work, It's totally fine. Real life comes first, and we'll still be here.
