the one who is all

i promise it's nothing to do with my partners or reflection on any of you. this falls on me, my mental health decline, and my stress levels. i've been struggling with things and haven't had the easiest time managing balance in my life. i've let a lot of things fall to the wayside while focusing far too much on other stuff.

my mental health has really taken a nose dive. i am struggling in nearly every aspect of my life and because of that, my hobbies have taken the biggest hit.

again, not to make excuses but to offer apologies. i appreciate each and every one of you who have ben nothing but patient with me and haven't rushed for replies, interaction, or plotting. i've made a lot of promises, none of them meant to be empty, and haven't been able to deliver in a timely manner or at all.

what i know i need to do is reevaluate priorities and shuffle some things around in my personal and professional lives. hopefully that is a great starting point.

i do think, going forward, i'm going to readjust how i approach in character things on this blog. i'm not sure what that is going to look like right now but i'm open to suggestions and what works for y'all. i want to be more present and i know to do that i have to change things and work on me too.

i have been debating a blog shuffle and archiving this blog to start fresh, slim down my circles and stop myself from stretching too thin and taking on too much. this is likely to be the first step i take on changing my approach.

i want to apologize for being inactive on here lately. i know disappearing without much notice isn’t fair, especially in a space where we’re building stories together. you guys put time and creativity into our threads, and i really appreciate that. i’m sorry if my absence caused any frustration or stalled plots that were excited about.
