The specialist said that carpal tunnel is like a kinked hose - no amount of therapy is going to fix it, and untreated it's just going to keep getting worse over time. ☹️

Now to wait up to a year or more for my surgery, since I'm considered non-emergant, so I will be continuing to create rather slowly to avoid pain. As I write this my wrist is very unhappy, so it's time to take a break for a while. It didn't like being manipulated and electrocuted by the specialist at the hospital the other day!!!

To clarify, I am still going to be working on projects like my fanfics and Knife Edge, just glacially, and I remain committed to my creative commitments. Rise Up will be starting a massive update (quite a few chapters!) very soon to finish off posting its current story arc (I want to upload chapters today even but my wrist really needs a break,) since I am happy with what I wrote for it a couple of months back after refeading it, then I will let the fic kinda be on hiatus like A Change of Spark is while I just work on shorter stories until I can have my surgery because right now my wrist really doesn't like being a wrist or doing wrist things. Basically during carpal tunnel the sheathe of protective tissue around the nerves which run through your carpus (wrist joint,) are gradually constricted more and more. Surgery gets rid of this constriction and the wrist starts working properly again apparently almost immediately.

I almost forgot to post this here. 😅 Knife Edge's archive is in my Ko-fi gallery.

Knife Edge has updated at last! Woooot! (In which momwolf Aspen decides to take a well-deserved break from her babies.) Read the archive here.

Also I started drawing some horses.

I keep forgetting to post these here; free-to-read archive at the link!

Also here is my production colour reference for Larch, I hate it so much for reasons unknown to me but it works for what it exists for so I keep telling myself that I mustn't change it. 😂

This has been a random life update; I just needed to share my Tarn update because I was very sad about potentially not owning my very own psychopathic Decepticon zealot.

Larch the wolf (left) and Sedge the coyote (right) are the main characters of my graphic novel KNIFE EDGE; I haven't posted a 'cast of Knife Edge' page yet on the Ko-fi because I haven't reached a place in the story yet where I could do that without it being horribly spoilery. 😅 All of the character designs are based off of actual animals; the goal is always that the characters be immediately recognizeable as the species that they are supposed to be, which is part of my greater goal to keep this story science-based. (Which is another reason, for example, that you'll never see outdated terms like 'alpha' and 'omega' in Knife Edge. Wolf packs are families, not military units and I honestly hesitate to even use the word 'pack.') Of course, some artistic license has still been taken due to the limitations of cell colour and my being a 'one man band' when it comes to producing this story, but I think that I've done at least an okay job. There's no magic involved in KE though, no gods or legendary elements - just wildlife, trying to survive in an incredibly hostile environment, just as real life wildlife struggle.
