(TLDR;) I don't plan on taking any orders for the rest of the year unless in emergency, since I have a lot of projects and responsibilities to tend to in the near future!!

(RAMBLE AHEAD)
to start this off: new pets!
I've been planning on getting rats since about 3 months ago, so i've been doing research on owning them as pets ever since, gathered supplies and commodities as of recently, and i've finally found a friendly resource around my area that can possibly provide me two boys
I'll be posting pictures in case anyone shares love for rats, once I own them <3

I'm also being given mossy frogs to rehome and care for by a friend, which is pretty coincidental given i've always wanted to own a pet frog/toad but never got around to completely committing to it
feels like i'll be accumulating a little zoo `w`"


projects for the future include working on cosplay and fursuits for cons! so far I have:
opossum kigurumi for December
ValRavn cosplay for January
Popplio gijinka for February
my Bixby fursuit for April
[possibly a local con somewhere in the midst]

all of the conventions mean i'll be putting a lot of time and effort into costume making, and i'll probably be posting work progress, plans, etc. to my Twitter as always - the further along i am
I also plan on moving house sometime next spring? really, really hoping it'll be possible by then, anyway

---

basically, for now, i'm trying not to get myself overwhelmed just planning all of these future events, but I hope to open a few commission slots on new years if i have the time and motivation for it!! i can't predict the future of course


ending this journal with a ton of appreciation, especially toward all of the kind patient customers i've gotten to work with so far with my artwork, it makes me so happy my passion in creativity sees the respect you people give it <3

also a ton of thanks to anyone who bothered to read this through, but regardless, love you all and keep it real!!
