Health update + plans

This is a bit of a follow-up for the previous post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/health-weirdness-102604653
Tldr; I've been ill for 3 months now, severely affecting the amount of time I've been able to work or relax, needing to lay down every couple hours on my best days and not able to do anything at all on my worst. And it's making me go a little insane.

Hey again!

Unfortunately I don't really have any news since the last health vent post. I've been to the doctor's again several times and had blood taken as well as some other research done. I'll have the results on Friday (hopefully), which means I'll hopefully finally know what has been going on with me and how to start getting better.

However, this past month has been one of the roughest yet and has affected my work the most. I wasn't able to finish an OC piece in time, I wasn't able to even start on the fanart stickers, and I'm once again behind on commissions.

For this I'd like to apologize. I really appreciate your support and want to make sure I can continue to make content that is worth your pledge, but I feel like I haven't been able to do that for a while now. I'm sorry.

I do plan on making it up to you, though. I have so many plans for when I'm back at full strength, including a month-long art marathon challenge (hopefully in June), where I'll be trying to draw something every single day. No ctrl-z, no overworking. This is to hopefully fix up my perfectionism a little and increase my working speed! The list of characters I plan to draw is going to be 60% fanart, 40% OCs. Everyone gets to make suggestions for the fanart part, 20% of the OCs will be from artists I personally love, and the other 20% will be all Exquisite Carrot OC submissions! Full post about this will go up closer to when I actually plan to do it, but I'll put up the Exquisite Carrot OC suggestion post later today!

Thank you all again for sticking with me. We're a third through 2024 now, and that first third for me has absolutely sucked. But that's alright! Cause I am going to balance it out by making the other two thirds a banger. As soon as I get better, that is!
