I'm pretty late for sending this message, but WOO!! 2026 is here, and I'm more than ready to make it a good year. Seriously, Happy New Year to all. I understand that I'm late in saying that, but I wanted to relay that energy to all.


But also, I have a few other things to say...


First off, to those of you that have asked for requests back in November/December, I wanna give a big fat apology for the incredible delay on those pieces. I know you've heard of the excuses on why things get held back, but I just wanna come clean now and say that I was mostly a vegetable for the holidays. I've been pretty lazy and went radio silent here for a bit. So I wanna come out and say that I'm deeply sorry for just vanishing.


...HOWEVER. In a few minutes of typing this journal, I'll be posting those drawing requests ASAP. I got the files ready, they'll be up soon. I promise. So to those who think otherwise, I've not forgotten.


Though, on the topic of Requests. I plan to give the rules an update to a few things that need refinement. So there'll be a new set of rules coming soon. This DOES NOT mean I'll be stopping requests or trades all together, but... I had to implement some things to keep some people from... capitalizing on certain loopholes.


As to answer where I've disappeared to for about a month and a half, mainly I was with family and friends for the holiday... and also working my retail job at the height of Thanksgiving and Christmas. I felt drained for a good portion of the holiday and that had caused me not to want to do anything else. Like I was overwhelmed with all sorts of things.

Didn't really help that I kept piling up more and more things on top of the mountain of tasks I had to climb. So much so that I've struggled to balance it all. Though as of now, I've fixed things up and gotten things to a normal pace.


To those of you who actually took the time to read this whole thing, thank you. I didn't wanna start off 2026 with a bummed out mood.

Here's to a bright future!
