Update #12 - I'm Sore (Mentally)
5 years ago
General
Howdy folks, it's been a minute!
Well, more than a minute, really - more like two months. Most of the commission calendar has been completed!!! Except for a few outstanding loose ends, which I'll get to later, but for the most part, I'm proud of myself for getting all this work done. Thank you too for reading and reviewing my material, commission or otherwise. Your feedback helped me stay in the game.
There's a few new things to talk about. First: I'm moving again! This time, out of the parent house and back with a friend in Baton Rouge. It's set for November 28th. I realized living at my mom's place was too stressful. Despite having a job here, the number of disruptions and hand bites was too fractious to my nerves. It contributed to a relapsed case of depression.
Which is the second thing. Towards the end of last month, right as I was writing Callaway Carnival, I began to recognize symptoms of depressive behavior in my daily schedule, as well as a general dip in productivity and a pretty poor state of mind. Staying at the home seems to have brought on another dark pall on my emotional state. Frequently binging video games, losing interest in tabletop, losing time, sleeping in, staying away from the house as often as I could - it just wasn't healthy. In addition, I think setting hard week deadlines was asking too much of myself while working 35-40 hour weeks at Target at the same time. I'm recognizing the symptom now, but I think anyone who follows this profile has noticed an eerie quiet from my end, and for that, I apologize.
Things are getting better, though. I have three commissions in the pipe, due by the end of November. What's more - I'll have more time to devote to writing in general, so you may see more non-commissioned works!
The following are in the queue:
Commission Calendar - November-December wrote:-The Prince and the Dryad (Commissioned by Princess Cloudia; Gender-bending Fantasy TG)
-Pizza O'Clock #3 - Rise of the Chunky Monkey (Commissioned by Firingwall; FtM Anthro TF)
-Illustrious Captain Keegan #34 - The Antares Affair (Commissioned by anonymous; trans-Lesbian sky pirate softcore)
I wish y'all the best of luck going into the winter. Corona is going to spread rapidly, so please, stay indoors as much as you can, wear a mask, and be conscientious of others.

Best of luck on the move! I can relate to a lot of the onset signs of depression you're talking about, through other sources for me though. I hope the change in scenery can help you out. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

good luck with the move bud, and with the mental health, I can understand feeling bad mentally.
