To all the artists I talked to, then DIDN'T talk to.........
4 years ago
An open letter to all those artists who I contacted out of the blue, spoke to for some time (maybe a few weeks, maybe even a year or more) and then just... stopped talking to...
If you still follow me, you probably know who you are. (Because I don't remember ;v;)
Anyway, if you've ever wondered why I haven't spoken to you in forever? Unless I blocked you, it probably wasn't because you offended me or drove me off.
In the past, I have often contacted artists with the intent of forging connections and "art friendships" as it were. But my "swing at every ball" approach has kind of overloaded my contact list, to the point where I can't even remember the names of artists I admired years ago.
Heck it's possible that I drove YOU off with my mopey self-hating dialogue. I'm SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER THAN I WAS in that regard, but... it's still a problem sometimes. 2020, while being one of the worst years in recent history, WAS a year where I sort of rekindled my artistic muse, to a degree. Many people have told me that my art has drastically improved this year. It's hard for me to see, but I kinda believe it.
At any rate, if any of you feel like I used you, or that I lost interest in you, or had no respect for you... That is probably not the case.
I just.... FORGET things. ;v; So sometimes I just need to be reminded that you exist. I hardly ever check my PMs.
So... yeah. That's it.
If you've ever wondered why I stopped talking to you, I'm sorry.
That's it. s'all I wanted to say. Hopefully this makes SOMEONE feel better.

Now trying trickle back out, slowly.
Don't worry though, it happens- especially in these times. All one can do is look to the future and keep going one day at a time, just 1% better than they were yesterday.
