Let's try something new

So if it's not super obvious, my passion for my comic is just totally dead, it's been dead for a couple years. I don't want to keep beating a dead horse. Maybe one day I'll want to get back into it, but I just don't enjoy making comics- at least, not now. I still don't even feel good enough or prepared enough to tackle a project as big as this. Maybe I should start with small, short comics- warm up before I take on something like this. I need to make a comic that isn't SO detailed. I gotta call it quits guys. I'm so sorry.

I want to do things I'm excited about. Right now that's just illustrating and sketching cute girls. Not all that deep, I'm afraid. 

I need to hit restart and just focus on what actually calms me down and makes me happy. For my own sanity. 

I never like disappointing any of you- you've all been way too supportive of me, and unbelievably steadfast- I really don't deserve it. Your patience always amazes me.

I'm going to get back to working on my 'Before and After' book because I'd really like to see that get published, or at least open up pre-orders once it's done. Gotta set at least one goal I guess.

I also feel like sketching a lot more original stuff too- so I think I'm going to go waaaay back to digital sketchbooks. I'll make them public for all. No pay walls on those.

Also gonna start doing more sketch gifts for my $10+ each month because I'm honestly running out of prints to send, it's really stressing me out. Though, I still want to give you something special- and sketching portraits is way more do-able right now. When I DO get new prints, I'll send them instead. You can have a mix, maybe keep things interesting. So expect me to be sending more private messages to you each month about that (and if you haven't replied to me about your sketch gift for this month, check your inbox $10+'s). Also those won't expire, in case you're worried- each month they will just stack until I hear from you what you want. No rush. Hell, if you want you can save up a few months and upgrade to something else, I don't care.

I'm sorry I suck D: I've been a tangle of emotions since last year and I'm trying to find my happy place. I want to love doing art, not dreading it.

So, let's try something new...

Love you all,
