Hey there, everyone.
Sorry for not updating you all last week. I under-slept last Sunday, so I was not in the right mindset to write a journal/update. I’m doing OK right now.
OK. Now for the medical update, since I know some of you are worried about it. As you can see, I’m still all right. I still have that lump in my neck, though it shrank in the past week. I also went to a doctor for it under Dad’s suggestion. Well, two doctors. The first place decided that they didn’t know what it was and gave me antibiotics. So, we went to a specialist place a week later, who injected a type of steroid in the lump. It worked, though I’ll have to put an improvised ice pack on it to help it more.
In writing news, I finally finished a new TF story after sitting on it for a while. A TF artist, Toshabi, inspires this one! I’m sure you’ve seen some of his works, which are great. I especially love the Dusk Lycanroc TF comic he did years ago. It was great, especially the last page, since the page before it acted like the finale.
I have more stories planned, like a new Conall story. For now, I should do a macro-themed story. I know I did a bunch of them. It’s Macro March, and I’m in a mood for macro goodness. I have an idea of what to write about. I hope you all will see it soon.
Next, as I am sure you know by now, March 16th is my birthday. It’s only a couple of weeks away. So, if any of you want to gift me anything, here is my Amazon wishlist. This is if you wish to get me something, however. I have no desire to force anyone to gift me anything in either art, story, or a nice product/game. Again, this is if you wish to be nice and gift me something.
I had a couple of takers last year. You know who you are, and I’m forever grateful for it.
Finally, I’ll share one of my favorite books of all time: Black and Blue Magic by Zilpha Keatley Snyder.
“You’d think that someone with a name like Harry Houdini Marco would be deft and skillful, but Harry could only occasionally catch even an easy fly ball without making some dumb error. On top of that, most of his friends’ families were moving to the suburbs. It would have been a long, dreary summer, but then a Mr. Mazeeck showed up and turned out to be more than he seemed.”

While it is a children’s book, it is a much more mature story than it seems. It’s an urban fantasy type, though light on the magic part. The cast here is colorful and fun; the plot never felt like it was going too fast or too slow; and it respects the reader by not spelling things out. It showed how possibilities abound even in what seemed to be a dreary summer and how good bursts out of mistakes. I urge you all to check it out. It’s completely worth it.
Anyway, take it easy.

Heck, I'll be thirty years old this year, as most of my siblings are also in their 30s as well.
As for me, that usually depends on sleeping as I only get maybe a stuffy/runny nose, but once fully awake, I'm good to go. Last time I got truly sick was back in November 2024 with a nasty ear clog, stuffy/runny nose, and huge lack of being able to fall asleep. And yet, I was able to pull through and document my sickness like I did back in January 2016.
