Blog Twenty: Two Busy to Breathe

What’s up, my fellow Fools, Ghouls, and Night Owls!

Whew—these past few weeks have been a ride. I’ve got a million things I want to accomplish, a bunch of things I have accomplished, and an ever-growing list of things I may never get around to. Basically, I’m a headless chicken in hot pursuit of its own head.

Work has been wild. My boss came back to the States… and then left again, leaving behind a whirlwind of tasks for me to juggle. Just when I thought I could catch my breath, it hit me—the con I signed up for? Only two weeks away. And guess what? I have nothing prepped for it. So now I’m scrambling to complete 3–4 illustrations in time. Will I make it? Who knows! But I am pushing myself to get it done, which means running on fumes lately.

On the bright side, two of the art books I recently bought—one on composition and the other on perspective—are finally getting some use! So at least my sleep deprivation is somewhat educational.

Also, I totally forgot to post last week’s blog—so here we are, making up for it now! Not much has changed, but I did decide to take a short break from writing this week to focus purely on illustrating. A little shift in priorities, but still keeping the creative wheels turning!

Here’s to hoping I pull it all together in time! Until next time, じゃね! ✨
