Happy today all

Today was mine first day back at my job :c All this confirms for me is I'm most happy when I'm doing art and working for myself. I really need to try to make this into a career choice if possible

Today I learned about psychedelics and how they effect the brain by, HealthyGamerGG

I was recently reminded that I'm a 4W5 type on the Enneagram scale. And that I need to develop my other wing, 4W3, so I can truly soar to the heights I know I can reach

As I script for the first time since completing chapter 1, I know pacing a lot better. And now I realize, the chapter count for Arc 1 might be a bit low Ha. Ha. XD well no matter. I'm debating if I should make all chapters 50+ pages. Instead of juss the first 3/4, i'll think on it, no need to rush to a decision at least until chapter 3 is finished

Also decided to illustrate, only WIP for now, but manga aside, I haven't illustrated in a minute

Today I learned about real estate agents and how to find the correct one for me. What to look out for and what are green flags :D

Gorsh tomorrow is the day I re:lease chapter 1! I'm very nervcited

Today I thought about it. I need to consume less, specifically on social media and engage more. What I consume is going in and right back out cause I'm not digesting it. I don't think our human minds are suppsoed to be able to absorb this much. So since I'm wasting my time I might as well use it more wisely and engage with others. I won't let social media change me any further if I can help it

Today I learned about the horrors of the manga industry, it's honestly crazy these mangaka are still alive and that their working conditions is legal

bonus xxxtra fact, Napoleon Fish(Humphead Wrasse) are born female and change sex to male as they get older, noice!

I'm so beyond incredibly and substantially gratefueled to finally have met other creators both from discord and now IRL. Uggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm literally on cloud 9- million. And even better, I found out Occult Urban Rumors is now a twin series to Re:Zero!

I really wanna find out how to be more confident. Like I'm assuming I'd get better with time, but as with anything there can be tips/info I can learn to help make that transition easier.
And so I want to draw myself with one of my of my enneagram wings and then graduate to two wings when I feel I've made it

EUREKA I'VE GIVEN BIRTH TO ANOTHER GREAT IDEA!

Today I learned that Re:Zero's first chapter came out today, and now so does Ocurru, I could cry this is so significant!!!!
