Things have been quite chaotic lately but it looks like things are getting back on track! I've got Nov rent paid, Dec rent arranged, and the $300 power bill will be taken care of the day before it's due. It's still gonna be a fight because o have a big $700 bill to pay off before the end of the year, but at least things are improving!

Art: so I've been slacking heavily on art lately with all this working and stress and nonsense. I'm planning on focusing on my art very heavily through most of December. The quality of my art has really suffered since September and I plan to rectify that. I'm taking some time to learn basics again and try to rediscover what makes good art. As always, my notes and findings will be uploaded to the gdoc tutorial drive for everyone to have access to! Here's the link, but warning it's very messy right now until I get in there and straighten everything up. https://drive.google.com/folderview.....uJ7IfHj-G4N56Z

Social media: like art, I've been getting behind on social media. I have the following social media and I'll mark the ones I'm super active on.
*** = Heavily active
** = Active
* = Needs work

I'm working towards becoming at least active on all these social media. Particularly, patreon; I have a lot of cool things planned for patreon in the future, I just need to sit and plan them out. Also, we have a wonderful discord channel filled with the best folks on the internet. You should join us! https://discord.gg/HVZZACS


Work: Most of you are probably aware by now, but I never officially announced it; I have a job at GameStop on addition to my professional art. What with the holidays and life circumstances, I am way behind on my commission queue. I aim to move towards fixing that in December but again with all the holidays, it may be Jan before I see significant progress. Thank you guys for your patience and if for whatever reason you're on a time table in your commission (like it's a gift for Christmas or something) let me know and I'll do my best to get it done.

Streaming: currently we do not have internet and so streaming is gonna be on hold indefinitely. My goal is to have streaming back in January. May even move towards streaming games in 2020, it depends on my available free time and finances.

Gaming: speaking of games, unfortunately, this takes the least priority in life lately and I have a huge backlog of games I have to make it through including Luigi's Mansion 3, Pokemon Sword, Little Dragons Cafe, Yoshi's Crafted World, Slime rancher, Five Nights at Freddy's AR, Breath of the Wild, Darkest Dungeon, Monster Hunter World, as well as a few other games on my radar like Blacksad and others I can't think of right now. I'll also be picking up Minecraft on the PC again in 2020.

Free art: so if I'm behind on my commissions, I'm way way behind on things like the raygun, raffles, and art trades. I haven't forgotten about them! I just don't even pretend to know when I'll get a chance to work on them. Please be patient with me, I went from having weeks at a time of free time to maybe just a few hours a week.

Cons: I'll be attending cons in 2020 starting with Fangcon in Birmingham Alabama in February. I know most folks I know aren't in Alabama but I'd love to meet anyone given the opportunity. My other plans include Dragoncon (at the minimum) and hopefully some other cons that are <10 hours away

Anyhow, that's enough updates for now. Thank you guys so much for your help. I'm honestly so proud to be part of the furry fandom. I've never met a more wholesome or accepting group of people in my life and it's just my hope to be able to give back all of the kindness I've received since joining. I love you guys so much.
