Overdue Journal
17 years ago
General
It's been quite a while since my last journal and although a lot has happened in that time, the only items which would interest the majority of FA readers is that there are several pictures incoming.
Chief among the incoming uploads is another try at doing a pic of Falco and Fox, of Starfox fame. I love Falco, but he's hard to draw.
Besides, I don't dare compete with the likes of
MissEbony and
rockgaara, both of whom draw him most beautifully.
Also upcoming are some dragon-related schetches and perhaps a few collaborations between myself and another very-well-established scalie artist.
In other, more personal news, I was released from my temp position, so I am once again unemployed. With my wife also out of work, that means no income untill we can get hired again.
The last three-four months have found us struggling at the last minute to make rent, and I've lost count of the people who deserve our thanks and repayment for support.
The constant pressure has also dulled the sharpness of fear and worry that would otherwise have me tearing my hair out at such repeated misfortunes.
We've made it through three rents that we never thought we would be able to pay, and each time we managed to squeeze through thanks partly to luck and mostly to the generosity of others (Thank You), and my ability to be as concerned as I was the first time has all but vanished.
We'll manage this crisis as we have others before. After all, it's these periods of hardship that make life interesting (and ultimately, they are, like life itself, fleeting).

tldr: Falco and Fox pic on the way. Sincere thanks to everyone who has supported me and
Witchiebunny during our hard times.

Thanks tons for thinking on my dear RockGaara and me. I feel really honoured :) With my continous "neurotic" feelings right here it's so encouraging to read comments like this Thanks!
