So yeah, I'm alive. I'm more active on twitter than here. I've got some WIPS and whatnot on there. It's been a hell of a year. Health issues (non-life threatening, more quality of life issue), expresso depresso, social seclusion from anxiety, power and computer issues. It's been a wild ride.

After getting insurance and getting back on my meds, I'm starting to feel better and more myself. I'm regularly seeing a specialist PT for my health related issue. It's not life threatening or anything, just effects my mobility and self esteem, but progress is going much better than any of us expected and I'm excited to see where I will be in a couple of months. I'm slowly becoming more social again and enjoying being around people. My friends, I missed you guys. I love you and I'm back. ♥

Now down to the art. I've done a few things here and there that are incomplete, depression hasn't really given me the drive of creativity. That coupled with our power issues and recent computer problems, I haven't wanted to test the limits of what I'm capable of doing. When Tropical Storm Elsa came through earlier this year, it shorted something out on our circuit and we started having daily, almost hourly breaker trips in our rooms. For the longest time we couldn't figure out what was causing it. It's starting to look like it might have been our network gateway. We recently just had our equipment upgraded and have not had a single issue since. The last trip we had took out one of my hard drives. I started crashing and getting a super long windows loading time after restarts. We thought it was my motherboard or PSU, so we replaced them. Nope, not that. The hard drive was failing so I frustratingly backed up the data I had on it on one of my newest hard drives, which was a pain because the damn thing would fall in and out of recognition. But I managed and ripped the damn thing out of my system. She's been purring ever since.

So, where does this leave me now? I've got a few in the works YCHs that I've had some pretty good reactions from friends on the WIPs. I'm excited to show you all them soon. I've got some minor background details to finish up. I've got some personal projects I've been working on here and there. I'll probably do a few rounds of YCHs and slowly start releasing limited slot commissions.

What kind of YCH content would you all be interested in seeing? So far I have a SFW pokemon half body YCH and a shibari themed set just needing final touches.

When can you all expect these? Ehhh, soon (TM). I'm still cautious about our power, nothing kills my drive more than losing progression on a piece because of a breaker flip. So far it's been good but I don't want to jump right in and fuck myself over. That annnnd, Endwalker comes out next month and I won't be working on anything until I finish the MSQ. >.>

As mentioned before, you can find me more active on Twitter. Any kind of WIPs and progress you'll find there, along with my incoherent ramblings about GPOSERS, FFXIV and other random things I'm excited about. Short form updates will show up there as well.

Later tatters.
