Happy New Year to all of you! Always with good health, full of monsters, maws, preds and preys!

Well, it's been another year... more than chaotic, a real roller-coaster. I'd really like to see a great deal of peace between all peoples, and then put the world on hold until we can rebuild everything on a solid foundation of understanding. But I'm not naive either, which is why it's unfortunately just a wish.

Please know that I miss you all very much! And I'll take advantage of this message to tell you a little more about the reason for my absence, which isn't over yet: it's just a one-day hiatus!
I'm conducting an experiment on myself, the aim being to see how I react to such a long absence after so many years in the fandom (for the record, it's a one-year absence!).

The results since the beginning of October:
- I've refocused a lot more on programming and video game development,
- I take part in mutual support on programming forums (Reddit, Discord),
- I'm still having trouble reconnecting with family and friends,
- I have a huge desire to draw (lots of scenarios in my head),
- I haven't started animating yet, because I haven't found “THE” software I'm comfortable with,
- I play video games more often
- I feel I'm missing out on big bangers (I'm talking about the arts here)

At the moment, this is a mixed review. That's why I've decided to change the plan a little:
- allow myself to come and interact once or twice a month,
- allow myself to draw if the motivation is there,
- If I see that the balance falls apart, either I come back as it was, or I cancel the experience!

Now for some news you might be interested in: I may contact you directly and offer to take a commission.
How it works: I haven't got the 100% plan in my head yet, but I'll be dropping in on galleries from time to time, and if inspiration strikes, then I'll offer you something. I don't want to make anyone jealous either! I'll see how to avoid that... if you have any ideas, I'll take them.

Towards 2000 watchers: We're not far off! During this event, I'll organize a raffle, with... an animation? Wait and see!

Another thing: I'd like to finish one of the projects I've started in 2020 or 2021, it's a lot of work, but I think it'll be a banger! And maybe also a little something with the best space pirate dragon. Tee hee ~

Thanks again to all my wonderful friends and followers who have supported me throughout the year, always giving me the energy and motivation to continue this adventure!

Love you all.
