HELLO I am still around kinda, lurkin in the background. GHDGS
Ever since like after artfight I guess like, I started sorta just layin low from social medias in general for a while and uhm, started really askin myself if I'm really like... comfortable with bein really out in the open as a creator/artist online and that answer from my brain has kinda turned to like... a loud resounding No? Like... I feel like for a long time I've been Trying to do it somewhat but holy hell I really am just like, very Very self conscious and generally just, not equipped emotionally to really Be Out There.
So uhm, I've kinda just been really rethinking how I wanna approach social media n stuff. I still wanna post some art places! And I'll still do artfight n stuff. but I guess like, I don't wanna be holding myself to expectations any more to be making art for public posting? I think after a while I did just kinda Internalize the expectation that the goal of drawing is, to some extent, a public presence but like... that's obviously untrue and I think it's kinda just stunted me creatively for a long time <:{;; when in reality like... I'm literally just a humble oc draw-er who just. earnestly wants to draw my ocs because I love them. GHDJGDHJ and that's kinda literally it?
I kinda feel like it won't really Change how I post here to be honest since I usually just drop in every few months and dump some art, but I still feel like it's worth mentioning just like... why I've been Basically radio silence everywhere for a good While
I am way more active on discord, but I'm also really really shy and don't really wanna just put my contact Out In The Open. GDHJGDHJ BUT I'm mentioning it just cause like, if we're mutuals and you have any desire chatter with me it's ok if you'd like to ask for it or my slightly more active private twitter!

I got a Discord if you wanna exchange 'em, but I am also one of those people who never ever starts a conversation, hah. If you wanna exchange Discords just to quietly sit on each other's contact lists while both being too awkward/shy to make the first move, though, I'd be happy to do so!
GDHJDJH I'm exactly the same with discord, but I'll shoot mine to you in a twitter dm if ya wanna add!
I wouldn't mind exchanging my discord and chatting if that is okay.
I appreciate the discord offer!! However, rn I mostly just use it to talk in servers and I'm extremely shy with DMing new people I haven't really talked with before. <:{;; You're free to interact on twitter tho/follow my private!
That is totally understandable! I know Dming people one hasn't talked to much can be very anxiety inducing. I am fine with interacting on twitter! I know or think I follow your account but I think that it is your public one. I wouldn't mind following your private one.
