October is Here! (BlogPost)

Hey guys!
I hope you all are entering October with excitement and enthusiasm! I sure am! I honestly love fall and October is one of my favorite months! SPOOKTOBER HYPE
🎃💀🎃💀🎃💀🎃💀
As I mentioned in my last blog post, there will be some things coming this month that should be real fun~
Tomorrow I'll be posting a few polls for you guys and I'll be also just generally posting here a lot more than last month.

One small change in plan from the last post is this:
I'm gonna be participating in Inktober (inktofur)!
starting tonight!
here's the prompt I'll be following (to the best of my ability):  https://twitter.com/yodelinyote/status/1177036648984588288
This will replace the "monthly fanart" for October though, so I'm not putting too much on my plate. This means more content all in all for this month though!

I'm planning on doing these in either traditional media with POSCAs or digitally.
If you happen to dig one of the posca pieces I make for this, please let me know! I'd love to give it a new home with you for a small amount (discounted for you guys cause patreon folk are the best of folk) ((probs around like $25-50 based on complexity))
If you see one you particularly love, let me know! otherwise I'll be selling all of the POSCA pieces in November!
I'm excited to draw a bunch of different species! This should help me become a more buff artist all around! PRACTICE MAKES YOU STRONG!

🎃October Commissions: A few people have come to me interested in something Halloween themed on commission and YES I will be open on a very small scale for smaller projects (Dizzy, I will be drawin ya lovely pupper!) I'll be posting more info in the #Commission-Openings discord channel when I am ready for these! OTHERWISE the monthly base reward will be voted on tomorrow! <3

Lately, things have really been getting better, too! I've been able to create art, stream and enjoy games without stress lately and that's GOOD. Things have calmed down and they reallllllllly needed to. I was right in my last post, sometimes we have to go through some rough patches to get stronger. I feel stronger.

🎃🐕Lily Updates!:



Lily the heeler is doing even better than she was, and is healing really well. It should be a process of a several weeks still to grow the claw back but she's doing well so far! I think the hardest part of all of this for her is that she can't play.. she wants to play so bad but I can't risk her opening up the delicate quick again. She just has to be a bit of a bored pup for a little bit. She'll be okay. She's getting lots of really light play and love!

🎃🎮On a light note:


VIDEO GAMESSSS
haha lately I've been melting stress with Borderlands 3! I love the game so much, I'm a HUGE fan of the series too! (My dog is named Lilith and my cat is Handsome Jack!) It's been awesome getting into the wild world of BL3 and remembering all the good times I had with the previous games!
If you play or if you have an Epic games account, please add me!

OTHERWISE today is the launch of Destiny 2: Shadowkeep! Another game series I've been in love with for years! (NOW FREE TO PLAY TOO!)
Feel free to add me on steam regardless if you'll be playing or not though!
