Day 13. Park
Alright, break's over. Time to get sad again!
God, this has.... so many layers, you don't even know! I'm proud of the final product, though! Tim is my favorite Final Girl!

My 2023 drawing summary! ✨
Links to the featured drawings:
jan | feb | mar | apr | may | jun | jul | aug | sep | oct | nov | dec
Barely remember the year to be honest. Just a lot of work and chores. Lol
Just some ramblings under the cut.
Let's see...
Achieved start of the year goals
Didn't fulfill my last year's goal of making commissions a full time job. I mean, I did for a little bit while but it's still not the right time yet.
Though what I did unexpectedly accomplish is that my fear of cockroaches had decreased. We had a family of house shrews this year (usually we had mice) and I learned they mainly eat insects. I still like to avoid killing the few huntsman spiders we have hanging around so the next big insect available would normally be a roach. So I'd bonk one if I find one (instead of immediately bolting out the room) so I can feed the shrews. I mean cockroaches, specially the American cockroach, still freaks me the heck out. But, like, it's shrew food.
Oh, also bought a display tab. I'll always be grateful to the Ko-fi supporters for reaching this goal! I'm still in the middle finding my rhythm with the tablet. Considering getting a paperlike screen protector to minimize the glass texture.
2024 goal
A new laptop of course. My ideapad is in the cusps of dying. 😭
I don't feel that productive in the drawing department this year. :/ My current day job does pay a little higher than my commissions and ko-fi requests combined... But I really don't fill fulfilled when I make less drawings. Let's see if I can make commissions a full time job this year. Or at least try to see if I can make my top source of income drawing related.
There are other goals I hope to accomplish this year, but these are the main drawing related ones.
Regarding commissions
There will be some adjustments to the background prices in regular commissions. Because, like, I shouldn't price it lower than the base price if I spent as much time drawing it. Lol
I think I'll rate Ko-fi doodle requests based on what the piece literally contain instead of basing on the amount of time spent drawing the request. It'll make things simpler specially with comics. I'll make a post about the changes when I decide on the settled rates

So I've never really lived in a neighborhood that's like fully a community that supports each other before? I mean, there's been a neighbor or two that my family has been on like "exchange cookies at the holidays" status with, but not like my current neighbors, who made extra mini cheesecakes to share with us and made mine without the apple pie filling the others had so that I could eat it with my allergies (they are so nice and the mini cheesecake was so good!), who look out for each other and help each other move furniture and stuff?
Anyway all that to say I really enjoy where I live now, and I have no photos to share for this afternoon's crafting update because my neighbor asked me to fix their dog's bed's cover and I removed and added a new zipper for them

Ahhh just had to ask at work if our holiday dinner get together thing could be moved to a restaurant that has a vegan option that is not just a salad
and now I'm anxious, because asserting needs is hard, and I don't want to be seen as a troublemaker or picky.
But I also don't want to be sitting there with my coworkers being the only one not eating because the only vegan option is a salad I can already tell I would not like (my sensory issues can tolerate quinoa, or edamame, but not both)

if someone doesn’t take a restored gideon nav’s face between their hands in alecto the ninth to tell her that her life meant everything and that she has inherent worth just as she is, and that she should live for herself and not for others, and then give her a tight hug, im going to do a john gaius on this bitch of an earth
