My cross country move to my new home has been generously funded by this amazing community. I've been a part of it for 13 years, and I just feel grateful, and incredibly lucky. Starting out as a really bad colourist, taught by Sallyhot(whom I was smitten with!), and my little audience kept growing. Now I'm doing my own art, crazy enough, getting commissions from people who(somehow) like what I do, and when my life spiral'd into the most difficult it'd ever been, you guys didn't hesitate to lift me up and save me from a crisis I couldn't avoid alone.
When I had the nastiest artist block, you guys understood, and waited patiently. When I returned, and my mom got really sick and sent to the ICU, I received so many supportive wishes. When she passed, many of you mourned with me, or sent condolences. When my family needed to raise money for her funeral, we got a lot of donations from this community. and finally, when I was faced with losing my apartment because of my mother's passing, I set up a fundraiser to pay for a big move across the country and so many pitched in to help, wished me well, and spread the word. I doubt I could ever repay you guys for all you've done, but from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
I left my home on the 8th. I've been staying with a friend for two days, and he'll be letting me stick around with his family until my train sets to leave on the 18th. Thanks to you guys, I bought all the luggage(+ train tickets) I needed to pack my life into them before I had to ditch the apartment. So what's next?
I should be arriving to my new home on the 22nd of February. I have to buy a new case for my desktop so I can start doing art again, but that won't take long. By the end of Feb, I'll be doing art again, and i'm gonna be working hard, but happily, on the commissions I owe, and the Sally picture series I'm collabing with
and my good friend Jay. After that? Maybe I'll work on something fun for this amazing community. What do folks want most? More Taking Sally's Pie? lol More Sonic & Sally married? Sub-Routines? or maybe a new comic or pic series? Who knows, but I'll be focused on giving back to you guys for quite a long time.
That being said, when I'm safe in my new place, and I see someone else needs help, I won't hesitate to lend a hand to those that need it. I won't ever forget what's been done for me, and I truly want to do the same whenever I can. <3
Anyway, I'm rambling but you get the jist. TLDR : I'm okay, the goals have been met and it's all thanks to you guys. <3 I'll be back at it soon, so stay tuned ;)
Tell me in the comments what you'd like to see from me in the future! If you still want to donate toward the trip, I'm still accepting donations past my initial goal to help cover the cost of food, toiletries, tipping, fees, etc.
Had a hard time way back then to around the same time frame 13yrs ago. You helped me out of my misery and over the time we've been friends iv balanced out. Going through rough times again but was more then happy to help before and up to this time as well.
What do i want? Many more years being your friend. ^_^
