ppl whove been following me since last year may have noticed ive more or less disappeared from this blog, and I just wanted to clarify that im okay and I chose to leave this blog here as an archival of my art and my old posts as ive had this blog since 2016

only within the past year did this blog ever get any followers, and id like to thank you all for that 💖 it does truly mean the world to me that hundreds of people liked my work enough to keep up with my blog

but it's also a double edged sword for me, I felt intense anxiety about trying to keep a posting schedule, wore myself down trying to quickly finish the large projects I started. the burn out hit me like a ton of bricks, so rather than take a break and come back later ive decided to just change my url and leave this here for anyone who likes my work, and potentially as a start if I really do want to come back, but...

ive shifted fandoms during my time away as well, and it would feel weird for me to start posting my new art here- not to mention the anxiety that comes with posting to a large public platform

friends and mutuals can dm me for my discord (though I usually stay signed out as I get flooded with notifs still so it might take a while for a response) but ive been keeping to myself and trying to focus on my personal life and my friends, so theres a very good chance I might never revive this blog

i found that sharing my art with a small circle of friends has been the most fulfilling for me personally and makes me feel much more secure and like I have less eyes on me, I guess? this blog had been as private as it could be before i became active in fandom, and I guess I missed that feeling of being unseen by most except a few of my best friends and people who really loved my work
