Haven't done a journal in a while so here's an update!
I've been slowly refining my Patreon with a heavy focus on animation. $10+ patrons can now vote on which character they'd like me to r34 animate each month!
Here's that to peek at: https://www.patreon.com/Animancer
Last month I got insurance benefits from my union and went and saw a doctor and after several visits and tests they said everything's fine! My stomach problems are caused by stress, not disease! Good news, I guess.
I also spent a lot of time and energy looking for houses to buy, to no avail! It's too expensive here! So I'm giving up for now while I save up MORE money and I'm refocusing on art.
As for the art, here's what's interesting: I haven't been doing a lot of streaming lately. I'm working on my animations in the mornings before work, but after work I feel tired and stressed and I just wanna work on something for only me. So instead of streaming I've been working on secret projects. I like secret projects. I always used to have secret projects. It's really fun and I'm drawing more than ever, but you can't see it. I got mixed feelings about that but at least my motivation's back.
My current job involves grinding concrete floors. It's bad for my back, bad for my knees, and the silica dust from concrete is toxic. I'm trying to find options to move laterally into a different company that's less harmful to my health, but something else I keep considering is quitting early and jumping head first into the world of being a full-time artist. It's scary, it's expensive, but I'm gonna do it SOME day... who knows what the year will bring?
So thanks for reading, I'll see you all on the flip side! I promise I'll do more streaming again soon (starting tonight!) and I hope to see you all there!

Look after yourself, it all sound pretty positive and hopeful for 2021 and beyond!
After all, it's not like there's a shortage of art to peruse!
(none that replaces the enjoyment I find in yours, but I'll live)
Hope you can find a path to prosperity with less impact on your health!
