Hello, everyone.
Sorry for being so inactive and slow on my uploads. I really want to say that I had been working hard on my comics for the past few months but I must tell the truth:
I was really unmotivated, uninspired, and very easily distracted. I did draw some comics during these months but they are very few in comparison with the amount of days I didn't upload.
As for the distractions, it's the usual suspects: books, comics, Youtube videos, and anime/cartoons/TV shows. I've been watching Revolutionary Girl Utena and it is amazing. I've also been listening to the Magnus Archives and its horrifyingly amazing!
I've been submitting to a lot of magazines and publishers too, and am writing a lot though not as much as I would like. I'll upload the places I've been published in I haven't been drawing much and that freaks me out.
October was a busy month for me because it always my favorite month for a variety of reasons and I barely had time or inspiration to draw.
To end off in a positive note, I've recently been hired as a seasonal part-time worker at a Michael's so that's good. I'm happy to get a working opportunity that isn't respite or volunteer work.
Wishing you guys the best of health and happiness!
Guess What....

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I've been posting blog posts about my experiences as an autistic here:

I'm practically crying with happiness!!!!
question
One of my friends have been posting her art there instead on dA, and I'm very sick of getting ignored so much on dA.
However, I'm really hesitant to have so many social media accounts and I don't wanna get hacked because of it.
But I want to reach a larger audience and get noticed. What should I do?
On another subject, I got myself some water-color pens and I'm experimenting with them. I've done some paintings and though the art looks shitty, it feels like a great break from making comics, especially from Self-Aware Dystopian Heroine. I do have the plot lined up but at the same time I don't know how to draw it.
To end off on a better note, I believe that I'm gonna submit a poetry manuscript soon and hopefully it'll be accepted. I just wanted to let you know.
I'm really sorry
I cannot tell you how sorry I am for not posting in the past four months. The only excuse I have is just schoolwork being huge stresser as it was my final semester at university.
When I did have a little break from the schoolwork, I was too tired to draw even though I had so many ideas and prompts to be motivated to do the piece.
I'll try to be better in the coming months even as I try to find work that pays me a living wage. I'm debating of getting myself to set up a patron account but I'm hesitant to do so because it would feel like you would be wasting your time on a crappy artist as me.
Still, here's to hoping things would improve. On the subject of writing, I'm writing lots of poems and short stories as well as working on my novel and poetry manuscript. However, I hadn't been submitting a lot of them to literary magazines so I must work on that.
Happy years every one
