I know I say this alot and it might just sound like a standard response, but it's not. Thanks for your support. I appreciate it. I really do.

One reason I don't post status updates is because I think no one cares anyways. So this is something I'm not used to doing, but today I decided to share with you why. I'm not sure why, but it does feel lighter writing this down.
I am not confident with my skills. Not at all. I'm usually anxious when I post things. I don't feel like I'm good enough, improving fast enough, have a style that's special enough, etc. Sometimes I just want to quit drawing, because I feel I'm not getting anywhere with it. I applied for comiket which is of course exciting on the one end and I'm really hoping to get a booth, but I'm honestly scared that no one will buy my work (like what happened to Fafnir in Kobayashi).

The thing that gives me hope are my supporters. I might not have a large following but there are people who see something good enough to support. Something they're willing to invest in. Even if it's just a few people, the fact remains that I don't want to let them down. So once again, thank you for believing in me. m(_ __)m

You make believing in you worth it :p I personally find your works pretty good and rather distinct in style, it's pretty easy to recognize your artstyle in general

Just believe in yourself! I have the same problem, I don't have many followers, and sometimes nobody seems to care what I create though I put so much love and effort in it... these feelings are so demotivating especially if you also have to deal with depressions. :( I really like your art and everyone who's following you likes your art too! You're doing a great job, please don't be sad ♡

There are folks who appreciate the work you do and support you for it for good reasons. I enjoy every bit of your work and rightfully enjoy supporting you for it. Why? Because I'm looking forward to the next piece you bring out. The first time I saw one of your pieces, I instantly fell in love with it. There's something about the way you draw that expresses emotions that words can't describe. You may not think you're great but you need to realize, everyone is unique in their own way. That's why I like art is because of that uniqueness about them. Keep up the great work!!

I'm sure you will have great success at comiket. I look forward hearing how it goes. Take lots of pics of your booth and everything!

It's all about pushing through that self-doubt so you can be the best person that you can be. So don't give up hope and never think you're not living up to your expectations. I have a buddy who goes through the same frustrations that one goes through as an artist, and it saddens me to see one go through that process. Build up that confidence. You got my full support all the way through so keep up the good work （´∀`）ｂ

Yes they really are... The one thing I regret the most is that I stopped drawing for 7 years. I always look back at how far I could be now if I didn't stop. I (now) do think my art with 11 was really good for that age, but of course at that time I didn't think about that. Time is limited and that makes me really anxious. Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm trying my best. Please also believe in yourself! >

Thanks so much! It really gives me courage to get support, most especially from people like you who have been continuing to do so. I'll continue doing my best!

Thank you! I'll keep pushing myself. Even if it's hard as a freelance artist, as long as there are people like you I can keep doing what I love and that means alot. I hope the best for your buddy as well! It's good that you can encourage him at least.

You wouldnt have any supporters at all if you werent good at all. Anxiety is normal when putting yourself out there. I love your art. Im very happy to donate to you!

Like Flower said earlier, you make supporting you worth it for us...you say "thank you for the support," we say "thank you for the beautiful artwork." :]

Kätzchen, I'll tell you something I tell most my artist friends, and it applies generally in life. There is always someone is better than you. There is always someone is worse than you. You cannot compare yourself. As previous posts mentioned, You have your own recognizable style, you already have reached that far. Do not worry about being good enough or not, Worry about putting yourself under the pressure and the spotlight, because if you fear not to do so, you will just stand idle and literally do nothing out of fear. I think you're doing good enough, and I say No, Thank you! Please continue be who you are, make social media so people would recognize you, Dont worry if you think people do not read statues or not, thats up to you, but be sure some may lurk and read no matter what even if they do not say anything, I may be one of them since I'm always late on my hotmails-checking from patreons. :P
