(Hiya Again!)

*pokes head over* *sliiiiides in very quietly, then straightens up*

*coughs lightly* *glances around nervously*

H-hi there, DA. :'D

Welp, if you thought the wild ecosystem that developed in my absence last time was bad*, I hope you brought a machete to hack your way through all that Life Complication Kudzu this time around, because BOY HOWDY.

I'm so sorry for vanishing off the face of the DeviantART earth again. For a year. Or two. >_> I have a whole list of excuses, but they don't seem that good. I actually started writing explanatory journal entries a few times over this interim, but they always wound up rambling and talking about my feelings and sometimes getting sort of personal, so I just...never finished or posted them. But the gist of it is that there were several places online that didn't feel like home any more, and that, paired with Real Life stuff (including but not limited to: job hunting woes, part-time job, traveling, and health problems)... Well, suffice to say that my former routine that included DA got kind of sideswiped. xD

I'm doing well overall, though, and some really cool stuff has also happened! Things still aren't quite settled, but I've missed you guys and have wanted to come back for a while. I've got a ton of your awesome art to catch up on! ^^ Just skimming through, I can see you've been busy with amazing things.
And I've also got some art to share with you, too. Kind of a lot, really, but not as much as there ought to be. I'll probably start with sharing some stuff from a couple years ago that I apparently never posted. Then I'll chronologically move forward, including what I have of that 10k drawing I promised ages ago but never finished. (Once I post the WIP, I think you'll understand why it never got completed, because I bit off wayyy more than I could chew. xD) And after most of that's been posted, I will then completely spam your inboxes with Pokecember drawings because I did a bunch of those challenges this past December. 8D;;; (I apologize in advance.)

Also, I owe you guys one incredibly massive sketchbook spam collection. <3

Also also, if you're still curious about that Neopian Anomaly story arc I keep mentioning, it's still on the back burner of my mind! I wouldn't hold your breath for it, though, unfortunately. I'd say its current status is filed under "Script Complete" and "Trying to Figure Out New Art Program." But also because of the aforementioned Life Madness, I am...many months behind in reading the Neopian Times. I admit it's kind of awful. @_@ But nothing gets me more excited to draw NA than reading other people's entries in the NT, so that's on my To Do List, too. ^^ (If I have enough space, I hope to lampshade my comic's hiatus. xD)

Also also also, another time-eater I have to confess is that I finally got a Tumblr account. xD I don't post too much art there, and it's mostly reblogs that I enjoy, but you're welcome to find me as Sylphscope if that's your thing. ^^ I'm still finding people there. (Though be warned about strong language, etc., 'cause, y'know, it is Tumblr and all.)

OKAY, my rambling is done! HOW ARE YOU? I've been gone so long that I don't even know who all is still here. Who am I rambling to? Please say hi!! I've missed you and would love to hear how you've been. ^__^ I hope you've all been hanging in there and are doing well!
