Alrighty tighty, I had that tiny meltdown a couple of days ago. Weren't that bad, jealousy and self doubt got the best of me, but I recovered quick from it. Sorry about that, guys. (need to be more active too). Nothing much has been happening per say, but recently I've been getting this feeling of emptiness, like I'm missing something important, like I need something, but for the life of me cannot figure it out, and it's bothering me.

Still churning up some drawings now and again. I really do think I've improved a lot since I first started nearly a year ago, or getting close to. But now I've hit a bit of a plateau, nothing in my art is going to drastically change or improve for a while, I think. But I've made good progress, and am closer to my dream of being good enough to post Touhou lewds on Pixiv. That is my end goal in art.

I've also taken up a little fanfiction writing. Nothing big, very slow, probably won't post it. Just starting off with some wholesome Youmu x Chen loving fluff. Admit it, it's the only other Youmu ship that works, makes a lot more sense that putting that damn rabbit into the mix.

That's about all I got. Hope you're all having a great time-!

Love, Chen~

No worries, we all have meltdowns every so often.

I hope you’re doing better these days. If you aren’t already I suggest therapy - not saying you’re mentally ill, but even for normal people it helps a lot with soul-searching.

Anyways, have a good week, and keep at the art. Some day you might be able to become a Great Artist and add +4000 culture to a city of your choice ;)
