BLOGPOST/Upcoming post backlog dump/AAA
Added 2022-04-10 15:00:06 +0000 UTC
Hey guys!
I hope everything has been well with you all! I know a lot of us are in regular contact on discord but I haven't heard from some of you in a while..
I REALLY gotta suggest all of you here hop over on the discord server. It's SO much easier to post about what I'm up to, and generally keep in touch there!
https://discord.com/invite/pMMprDh
I have to open up about the silence..
It's been so hard for me to sit and construct an "update" or "Blog post". I hate to say it but it's hard to just chronicle "a lot of the same" and it's so much easier to share in an open style like a chatroom.. but I'm sorry for a lack of blog posts, I've been doing well.. and honestly better and better! With spring coming along, I really feel myself coming out of the winter's cold. So, hello! Hi! I hope you've all been well! But, with that note.. I want to talk a little..
The thing is.. I've been held back by this post. I keep feeling like "I need to post stuff.. but I haven't written a blog in ages.. I really need to check in first.."
But the thing is, I have been checking in.. It's just a different thing to sit down and make a longer post like this vs checking in in the chat. And the chat is much easier and much more organic than writing a long post.
What I want to get to is.. are you guys okay with me posting less frequent "blog posts"?
I feel like these blog posts are a really small amount if what I have offered here and I shouldn't let the almost formality of "start of the month blogs" hold me back from posting if I have real content just... waiting. SO, unless you guys object then know that if you want the fullness of what I offer with how things are, WiPs and otherwise what I'm up to, please join us on Discord! It's SO much easier to update than this website. This website is best to serve as an easy access archive and I really feel if you want more day-to-day content and general interaction, discord really is best. PLEASE join us there.
I am open to other options as well! Just let me know! I want to be accessible to the majority of you guys!
Thanks for reading and please get back to me with how you feel. I will happily accommodate what works best!

LETS GET ON TO WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER THIS!
After this post, I'll be letting loose the gates and publishing stuff that's needed to get posted here!
So, expect a few more notifications today. Thanks for being patient everyone.

Going forward:
One of you all here has contacted me rather recently and expressed interest in helping me get back on the sticker train and I feel really motivated to follow that again, so I'll have a few polls upcoming to gauge interest in that! For this next shipment (including whatever old print that's in the precovid hoard that you want) I want to offer some free stickers for continuing your support. I will have a form to fill out asking current shipping info as well as which stickers you'd like. I will also be open for you guys to purchase additional stickers after your first freebies. (and if you dont want any extras that's fine!)
I just want to go after this a bit. And, if that goes well, then I would love to reintroduce a sticker club sort of tier here! I want your feedback here on what would be best to do. So please reach out!
Otherwise, I want to keep chasing the things that have made me feel good with art. The fanart, the experiments, the stuff that I feel is helping me chase the creativity I feel I need to go after.
That being said, I do feel like, for right now I would like to step back from focusing on all of my tier rewards being NSFW in nature to more sfw themes.
I will reach out to people personally, and It wont be forever but I would have much more fun for the present working on different themes. I've been struggling a lot with feeling a lot of "stagnation".
I know you all are here for me here with this. and it really means everything to me. I really feel like it's not just what you feel you may or may not gain here in supporting me but that you guys really just want me to keep being able to create and I want you guys to know that means everything. You all make this possible. All of you.
It's so important to me that you all feel like what you do here is "worth it". So always feel free to reach out and talk to me if you feel as though anything is lacking.
Thanks for reading! Here's to GOING FORWARD!

Both you and Tvorsk have words that bring a smile to my face and.. seriously thank you so much for being my friend. It’s truly part of what keeps me motivated to keep going. I know a lot was already said in our recent chat but it doesn’t mean any less reading it again now. Thank you for taking the time to say this. It helps me so much. Thank you for being you! You’re one wonderful wolf. 💙

2022-04-10 15:51:12 +0000 UTCThank you so much for this. Seriously. You and the others always have the right things to say. This community rocks and you’re entirely right, thank you for being my friend. (It’s been years for most of us and I wouldn’t replace any of you for anything.)

2022-04-10 15:46:22 +0000 UTCGROWL! 🎉 HAPPY SUNDAY, my friend! You and I have spoken recently, so this won't be new to you but I will say it here again so everyone can see it (and because I mean I, and repeating it might help): I'm here to support YOU. I'm not here to get things to "make it worth it for me": I don't have a quota you need to meet. I don't have a list of "I need X number of things to stay". I'm here to support you. I love your creativity. I love your excitement. I love your energy and sillyness - your whole vibe when you're in the groove and I'M HERE FOR THAT! :D When I see you making cool stuff, it makes me happy and it makes me want to throw money at you. When I see you having fun streaming, it makes me want to throw money at you. When you come out with a cool product that I can buy multiple of (like stickers and pins and shirts and buttons, magnets, patches, lanyards, keychains, etc.) ... it makes me happy and it makes me want to buy some! I'm just one wolf, but here's how I feel: if it makes YOU happy, DO IT! Your excitement and energy will draw people to you like moths to a flame. If it doesn't make you happy: DROP IT! Why? Because feeling like you have to do something that you don't want to do will kill your energy, your excitement, your creativity, your whole vibe. Then you'll avoid doing that, AND you'll avoid everything that's not The Thing out of a sense of guilt and it's an ugly spiral. Take care of yourself, my friend. Drop the regular posts here that don't bring you happiness and focus your energy on the things that you enjoy. You'll be happier and healthier for it. We're here for ya, my friend. ❤️

2022-04-10 15:24:05 +0000 UTCCheers, Growl. Speaking as someone with an extremely self-destructive mental block where i feel i must write this big up front post with explanation and apology and stuff before settling into more of a regular conversation, and in the result just prevent myself from restoring that regular conversation... Please don't be like me. Please just dgaf about blog posts. Shoot random stuff the moment it comes to you, let it flow, have fun, don't worry. Make it "lemme copy-paste this bit of discord stuff for posterity". No sense in locking yourself into "i need to make this more official, more presentable". We're your furry friends, it's all casual, no one's going to demand "professional" behavior, this ain't no bank. ... Right?
