progress update (Patreon)

just a quick update! marty and i are working on different sections of this forthcoming build (it’ll be a while still) to give it some oomph. we’ve got a good outline for upcoming storylines and how korra and the girls are gonna go, and we’re calibrating and figuring out the best ways to be productive.  i’m trying out normal weekday hours with weekends off, with mixed success. i’m definitely old friends with depression and anxiety (who isn’t) and haven’t always used the healthiest mechanisms for coping, but i’ve been better so far this year. it’s funny how you can sometimes be happy during the bad times, but feel less than stellar during good times. i’ve been trying a lot of things to organize my brain — i’m finding lists really helpful. i’ve always been a seat-of-the-pants kinda person, but just remembering everything that’s gotta get done takes up so much mental energy it’s hard to start things. So, yeah, lists help. I’ve also been exercising the last couple months which is making a difference i think. I’ve never done much of that, i’ve always just fluctuated between too skinny and real chunk (more on the latter side), but i’m finally understanding that the body and brain are connected. motivation is more present and my mind works better as my physical health improves, though i still have plenty of work to do there. most important step is the next one. 

anyway, the girls are coming along, the story’s gonna get a little juice, and we’re tackling this thing from two angles and truckin’. hope you’re staying warm out there!
