First, I'm planning on submitting a hundred pictures and stories this year. That was my goal every year, but I frequently ran out of time and/or energy. Didn't help that I often ran into writer's block, my scanner was sometimes a pain to use, and drawing with a mouse, laptop touchpad, or drawing on a tablet while staring at the laptop screen definitely had quite the learning curve. I used to do art on my 3DS, but that's having some hardware issues, especially with the R-button.

Second, but related to the first, I got myself an art tablet with a built in screen. Still has a learning curve and I got a fairly cheap model, but the curve isn't anywhere as steep as the old tablet.

Third, made some Mario Maker 2 levels lately, including three troll levels.

Finally, my sense of time feels messed up. The Pandemic feels like a long time ago, but the 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s feel more recent for some reason. Odd.
