Something on my mind. (Patreon)

How are you doing, my beautiful people?

Why am I writhing this today?

Because I got something on my mind, right now and I need to put it in writing so I can get back to work (this pinup is taking surprisingly longer than expected).

The last two years have been pretty hard for all of us. Covid was (and is still is to a certain point) a nightmare. We’ve got cut of our people, lost some. I personally had a few health issues to sort out. Lost my dad and favorite uncle to cancer. And with my birthday, coming soon, leading to introspection, I also realized that I had fallen down to a really bad habit of mine. One that I thought I had gotten rid of years ago. Pity whoring. What started as a way to keep you guys in the loop, making sure you knew where your money was going, turned out in the last two year more of a way to get sympathies. None of it was lies. And I don’t think I exaggerated any issues, but I was in a negative space (there’s a reason why we went almost a full year without comics) and it reflected in my post.

All this to say, I realized that now. And I’ll try to do better. Keeping it to the facts and will try to focus on the positive in the future. Not that I won't remain an open book with you guys :P I am, who I am, after all.

Speaking of positivity. Tracy and I talked, and we are still on for December. I also accepted and other gig for January, and while this usually means a few weeks with little output on my patreon page, this also means two new comics coming really soon.

I also have a few scripts in mind to write down before I forget. Can’t guaranty that they’ll all become comics (one is especially silly/stupid ) but it feels good to have finally got out of the creativity slush that was the last year.

That’s it for now. I'll get back to rendering this picture and hopefully post it later tonight.

See you guys soon!
