One of my watchers has expressed curiosity as to where I had vanished to. I did leave FA for a couple months, but I came back (my updated favorites will testify to my return). I really haven't had much time for FA still. I have 23000+ submissions to sort through still and have mostly been nuking journals. I know I haven't produced anything art-wise or even journal-wise in several months. For those of you who read my last journal before I had deleted it, a friend of my brother's had found the missing Lightwave hardware key a couple weeks ago (I am not about to apologize for thinking my brother sold the hardware key, he did lose it and swore that he never even took the key, so suspicion was very justified even if my suspicions were wrong). I am eager to make some stuff in Lightwave again, but I have my thesis that I need to defend in less than four weeks and lots of work to do leading up to it, so not yet, but I may get something up in time for Christmas. I am really not likely (and don't really want) to get a job immediately after completing my Master's, so I will likely have at least some time to work on art in December through ??????. I will likely do some clay work in addition to the Lightwave stuff. I want to switch up my style a little, so I think it may help if I do some work in other media in-between Lightwave efforts and clay has definitely been my best success in other media.
