Okay so I fucked up with one goal of doing a full picture every month, but I HAVE been doing a lot of other stuff, most of which probably can't be posted because it's all practice-y stuff, but one such thing is reworking the old story stuff I only did like two things for, and trying again, this time with the setting entirely my own instead of shared with someone else, or as part of a group like the PCA days.

I already said some stuff about the next story in the description for the first one, but basically it shouldn't be too long before I can post it. I'll also add that I wanna do stories with other, non-Pokemorph settings I've come up with too, but I'm not sure when I'll get the ball rolling on those since I've been mostly focusing on the 'main cast' for now. Maybe after the third story is done I'll try to get started on the first story for one of the others? We'll see.

Also I guess you can count this title as also referring to me starting my 40s. Yes, I am an old man, practically ancient, but as the horrors persist, so shall I.

Because I'm stubborn like that and want to make things that make others happy, even when it feels like all of humanity is crashing down upon us with no light at the end of the tunnel. I wanna be the one who lights up a lamp and says 'well, guess we better keep moving then, huh?'

Wow this got real intense suddenly didn't it? Well either way, I ain't stoppin'. Even if I don't know where I'm going or how I'm getting there, I'll just push on through until I find the way I wanna go.

Something something row row fight the powah.

Okay that's the end of this journal get outta here.
