⋆ #4 | Life and site updates ⋆
It's been a while since I felt like working a bit more on my site, I think it's been about four months since my last blog post. So many things have happened this year, meeting my best friend in person for the first time was probably the best thing that has happened to me in a while. I do not know why but this year seems to be cursed otherwise. I have lost three dogs including the one that I had the deepest connection with. It's been roughly two months since her death and I've not been doing so well. I've tried to draw, crochet and play games to distract myself, but it's not really working. So many other stressful things happened on top of that so it's been a rough time for myself, family and friends.
I love to create and I wish to continue to create but I am so drained of energy all the time. It sucks because I was so determined to get started on my comic project but right now I feel so hopeless. The current state of the internet does not help - algorithms make it hard for my art to get seen and, in turn, makes me feel even more depressed. Because of that I am unsure if I will continue to post my art online, should I find the energy to create more that is. For now I will spend the limited energy I have restructuring the art I have posted on here, perhaps convert some of it into jpgs or create thumbnails for each art piece because the loading times make it hard to browse the art I posted.
I might delete some of the art I have posted here or move it somewhere else. I also got rid of my skeleton rating blog and will likely remove the gaming page as well because I do not have the energy to continue fiddling with these. It might rid my website of some of the charm but its gotten so cluttered it makes me a bit upset. It's like a late spring-cleaning, I suppose. And better than giving into my urge to delete all of my art online haha. :/
Well thank you for reading this if you do. I do not know where else to post my thoughts. Hopefully the next post will be happier. Stay safe.
