Hello friends and vaunted supporters. Just want to share an update.

I have just been through my LONGEST hiatus, probably ever, for a bunch of reasons: crippling insomnia due to my ADHD medication, a string of panic attacks and constant anxiety caused by withdrawal due to changing my medication to fix the insomnia, the resulting resurgence of my ADHD, battling some virus for a few weeks as well, dealing with the prospect of not having a roof over my head, and most importantly - finishing up on ending an old relationship and standing on the cusp of building up a new one, moving out of my old place and into a new, albeit temporary home.

To say this has all been costly and disruptive is to put it lightly. However, there's only good things on the horizon here, considering the medication stuff is behind me now, I've put my past to rest and I have someone to build a future with. And with how much income I missed out on by being inactive while dating someone, I have NO CHOICE but to work my absolute butt off over the coming months! I know big things are coming and I can't wait to deliver.

I have felt a good amount of guilt that this hiatus hit me so shortly after I launched the Patreon, but I know most of you are okay with it, and those that aren't are free to unsub. This is a two-way street after all. This was just kind of a perfect storm of upheavals, good and bad, and I don't expect something like this to be happening again anytime soon. Thank you for your continued support, without your monthly contribution I would have been totally broke already. Now then, back to the art!
