I didn't mean for it to be such awhile between updates but real life and my health don't want to offer me many breaks these days so here we are.

If you remember my last update back in September 2024 link, I talked about my motivational struggles, the ongoing BS with the plagiarism machine and how it's affected my desire to share my work, and of course starting up my Discord.

Continuing with that, for the time being I'm slowly sending out invitations now. I'll give links out upon request via private/direct messages to keep out undesirables (by that I mean nasty people who have nothing better to do than be a nuisance bc they don't like my subject matter and really don't like that I told them to go shove it for their rude behavior towards me).

■ Something New ■

I do want to bring up that due to my recent struggles of feeling lost and unmotivated, something did spark my creative passion again.

It started out as a sort of vent project to get out my frustrations at the state of the world right now + things that I've been inspired by and passionate towards over the last year. It's developed into something that's become very special to me.

It's been interesting to start something new like this again. Develop and world build an entirely new story and characters from scratch at this current perspective of my life compared to "Everything Under the Stars".

EUTS was created when I was still young and hopeful about the future and I can definitely tell that in the almost two decades since, my view point on a lot has obviously changed so it's been nice to kinda start from scratch on something and not feel like I need to get into my younger self's head space to stay true to the nature of how EUTS was meant to be.

And please don't think that I've abandoned EUTS in any way. That is my pride and joy and life's journey of a project. It contains all the things I'm so very passionate about. Hell, back a few months ago I was digging through my EUTS folder and picked up an old sketch I liked and began heavily working on it in my attempt to motivate myself.

But atm, I feel very happy about this new project and I'm curious to see if those of you who have enjoyed my previous projects might enjoy this one, too. It gives me a bit of hope and motivation to start sharing again and see where it goes.

I'm gonna set little goals for myself to help push me to actually… do.. something. So in the spirit of this new project's theme, as with most of my subject matter, I think I'll focus on dropping a teaser on Valentine's Day and see how it goes from there. And if you'd like to join my Discord server, at this time, please feel welcome to send me a private message (on any of my socials that's easiest for you: linktr.ee/LadyOwl ) or respond here so I can DM you, and I'll be happy to give you the link.

I'm considering doing an Art Stream again soon, too so I'll give out the Discord link there as well.
