After a bit of tinkering, I finally got around to fleshing out the F.A.Q. section. Many of those pages I haven’t had since 2012, so they needed some updating. However, there’s at least something up. As for content updates, I finally got around to posting the first chapter of Space Marine to AO3! I’ve been meaning to do this for a long time, but I was always hesitant since I wanted to do edits. However, I told myself its better to put something out there and get opinions on it, then edit it, than keep telling myself I’m going to edit it and never putting it out there. My hope is to slowly build a readership for my original work, so that if it ever goes to print, I’ll at least have something! So if you’re interested in reading a romantic-comedy featuring aliens and a post-apocalypse Earth, please give it a look!

My next step is to start updating the art section, since it’s been stagnating lately. Look forward to it!

Thank you so much for sticking with me through the long silence. I lost my password for WordPress, and apparently it was sending the recovery email into the abyss, because none of the e-mails that I have been using for almost 20+ years received anything. I believe it’s all been fixed, and I once again have access (hint: if this ever happens to you, go through your C-Panel and find the WordPress Toolkit).

Now that I have control again, expect more updates. Due to the collapse of Twitter and me deciding to finally leave Deviant Art, I’m going to focus on posting all of my old artwork here, along with my now defunct comic. I’ve also updated many of my writing projects with new content, so if you’re not following me on Ao3, you’ll find links to my work here.

There’s not much new right now, but keep checking back! I’ll be updating more frequently now!

August 8th

It’s Sunday, and I’m typing this from the Artist Alley at Otakon! I want to thank every person who stopped by my table – I loved talking to all of you! The entire weekend was a whirlwind of memories and good times and I’m so happy I was able to attend.

For those who were hoping to do some online shopping, I will be adding my plethora of stickers to my StoreEnvy shop by the end of the week. I know many people were disappointed that I sold out of my Teen Titan sticker set – I’ll make sure they go up first. So please, come back and check them out later this week!

Here’s hoping I see y’all again next year!

It’s been a long six months, but things are finally settling down with work and life in general, and some exciting things are coming to fruition.

First up, it’s confirmed: I’m selling at Otakon this August! I had signed up for last year, but after they were forced to cancel, our registration was rolled over to this year. I’m fully vaccinated, and I’ll still wear a mask and scrub down with hand sanitizer, but I’m excited to attend. It’s been ages since I sold at a convention, and I’m going to have all new stock, but my chibi stickers will be making a big return. My hope is to get my online store up and operational before than.

I’ve continued updating my Skyrim fanfic, though updates have slowed to once a month due to my work schedule. Still, I’m winding down part two, and hope to wrap up the entire story in the third part. I’m already working on the first part and cleaning it up. My plan is to have each part printed, if only to have a copy for myself. I may open it up pre-orders at some point, but that’s up in the air.

Lastly, I’ve recently opened my commissions. Save for Con-crunch time, I’m going to leave them open for the foreseeable future. If at any point, you’re interested in having me do some work for you, head over to the Commission section and fill out the form.

December 5th

Been quite an interesting few months. I returned to work, quit my job because they refused to book me (I’m paid by commission), found another job, then left that job because they were so poor in their protections that two of the other therapists came down with Covid. It’s been a tumultuous time, and it still hasn’t settled yet, but I decided to start focusing on alternative means of income. Mainly, working on getting this website completed and setting up my commissions. My plan is to open up my commissions within the next few days, in time for the holidays. So if you’ve been waiting to get some artwork from me, you can head over to that section and take a look at my prices.

I took the opportunity to update my image galleries. They should be working now, with a light box feature! Those of you on mobile devices may need to expand the images a little, but I’m still playing with all the features.

Lastly, I’m back to updating my current Fan-Fic, A Daedra Named Desire, every Thursday over at Ao3.

This time of year is always busy, but I’m hoping that being currently unemployed will give me plenty of time to work on my various projects. In the mean time, please stay safe and wear your masks when in public!

September 2nd

So, quarantine happened and threw a bunch of things off. My artwork has taken a huge hit, since my mood is a big part of my ability to draw. It does not, however, have any effect on my ability to write. As such, I started a quarantine writing project: a brand new fan-fic that I update weekly. So far, I’ve written over 22 Chapters, and I upload the latest chapter to Ao3 every Tuesday! I’ve been enjoying the exercise quite a bit. Once I have my written section finished up, I’ll make sure to link to it.

Other than that, I’ve gone from having loads of free time to having to start a second job to make ends meet. It’s very frustrating. Hopefully I’ll be able to stabilize my work with my art and writing. In the mean time, keep checking back for updates!

May 1st

Things are slowly progressing with the website. I’m slowly getting all the images ready for uploading so I can have my archive of artwork back up. I’ve been fairly productive since I opened up a Patreon, so I have a ton of new work to show off! With luck, the full website will be up and running by the end of the month.

Keep checking back!
