Schedule Revisited
7 years ago
Family emergency came up immediately after I made my last post about free time, so now I'm behind on stuff again. My family member is mostly fine now, but I will likely have to take them to a future appointment or two.
Since I can't seem to actually stick to dates, I'm going to try a new route of simply having a to do list without completion dates for the next handful of months. I've noticed that I'm teeteering on the edge of burnout again, and I feel like I am dangerously close to simply stopping everything I am working on, both school and art related. I would much rather prefer that I actually keep doing things at a limited pace to stay afloat. This semester will not have nice grades, but I will leave with my mind intact.
Due to this pile up of IRL stuff, I've lost time that I wanted to use to further flesh out and change ADR's story. It's going to slip back into "whenever ready" updating instead of monthly for the foreseeable future. ADR 2-5 is written, and I want to work on it tonight but we'll see if I can make that happen.
So, the to-do list of things I hope to be able to get to:
A Decaying Realm 2-5: Sketched / Partially inked
Promised Stream Fanart: Sketched / Partially inked
Twitter Chat Characters: 1 Rough Sketched with Anatomy Studies, 1 with Anatomy Studies
Twitter Friends Fanart: 3 Rough Sketched
MRM #8: Song chosen
I will be refocusing my extra time on getting a job in the area and getting housing after graduation (it's going to be an apartment, a house is too damn difficult for me to try to arrange right now). Once I graduate, I'll settle into work and then start to figure out how I plan to proceed with art. Commissions may become available sometime late this year, should I reach a level of skill and speed that allows me to offer them.
Thank you for reading! How is your day going?

Yikes dude! I'm really sorry that all of that sprung up on you, however I think this is an incredibly proactive plan to help avoid burnout and that you're doing the very best you can. Just keep doing what you're doing and don't forget to take care of yourself :>

Thanks man. I've been meaning to get around to replying to you on Telegram, but I always approach it like I'm writing a letter, so I slowly work at it and proofread it like crazy

Bro don't even mention, I already know that's how you write and we're both stupidly active on Twitter. You take as long as you need!!
