An upcoming hiatus on stuff
6 months ago
Hey, first time me writing one of these. Hello to everyone!
So, that info on my profile has been outdated for a very long time, I got my bachelor's degree ages ago and have been working for several years. Unfortunately, I think the work I have done has, overall, been a detriment to mental and physical health, which has lead to a decline in both that culminated at the start of this month. I won't bore you with details but I have overall had a very unpleasant Macro March, unfortunately.
So, I will start making the moves for a career change. I won't quit my job just yet, but I will probably do so in the next few months, probably around Summer if all goes well. So that's good for me! Unfortunately, a career change will take lots of resources, namely money, which means that I will have to massively scale down if not stop getting commissions entirely for a decently long time.
I still have a few character design comms coming for the HRC-verse cast coming, but after those, don't expect to see any posts from me for a while. This unfortunately also means that I won't be able to commission any new chapters of the story from Kyrm either. Trust me, the idea of putting my beloved universe on hold for an unknown amount of time really saddens me too. But this is something I have to do for my own health in the long run.
I am NOT abandoning the HRC-verse! The goal is to get back to it when my situation has stabilized a little. Rest assured of that.
But I will not really have hard feelings if any of you want to stop following me, since there's gonna be a stop on art stuff in a few months. Following me because you like the stuff I commission is totally valid and likewise, quitting when the art stops coming is also valid.
This is still an upcoming thing, but it's real and it's coming, so I thought it was good to let folks know in advance what's gonna be happening. This won't be a complete disappearance from the internet btw. I will still be hanging around favoriting art and commenting on stuff and if folks want to reach out for one reason or another, I will be open to that. All that will be put on pause will be the art posts.
Have a good Spring you all, hopefully a less turbulent one than I have had so far.

Good luck with the career change! I hope you are much happier with what you end up doing instead! ^^
