Reyquiem

Hey everyone. I realized I've been a bit quiet over here, so I just wanted to reassure people that I'm still around and still doing stuff. However, I've mainly been the most active on Discord and Twitter, so I encourage you to follow me on Twitter (https://twitter.com/ReySilverskin) and come join my Discord server (https://discord.gg/5rxkMcJ) if you want to.

The main thing I wanted to say is: I know it's been a very long time since my last written work, but I promise that I haven't given up on writing. I've got a lot of ideas to put to use, but I just haven't really been in the right mindset for it. Writing is a lot of work. Which is why I've been focusing more on drawing; drawing is easier to just go and do, while writing takes a super long time to plan everything out. I do fully intend to get the next thing written as soon as I can, but I don't know when that will be. For now I'll still be focusing on art - again, when I can.

Speaking of which. I wanted to ask everyone, is there anything in particular that I've drawn in the past that you'd like to see more of? Or anything I haven't done that you'd like to see me try? I've got a huge list of picture ideas, and it would help me to narrow it down a bit. Prioritize the ideas people are more interested in, and such. Please leave a comment if anything comes to mind. 😄

Well, not extremely big, but I do have around half a dozen pictures that I haven't uploaded yet. Most are fairly old, and around half are gifts or commissions, but I do have a few things I managed to finish recently. (Yeah, that's right, I think I might be getting back into art again. Here's hoping.)

I would do the uploads tonight, but it's late and I'm lazy. They're already up on my FurAffinity page, though.

Nothing to worry about. Just fixing some word choice from the old stories, cutting out references that don't make sense, stuff like that. No changes to plot or anything. Just thought I'd give a heads-up that some of the oldest stories are about to be edited a bit.

As far as the cleanup part is concerned, I'm just moving some particularly old stuff to my scraps.

Generally it was a lot of old ideas that I chose to develop in different ways than I had thought of way back then. So I moved them to my scraps to avoid confusion with more recent stuff.

There are a couple of good ideas in my old notes that I still intend to expand upon properly – or, in one case, that I already have been expanding upon and just haven't shared any of yet. I'll definitely be returning to those. I just have a lot going on in my head right now. 😅

Which leads into the update part. My job is a lot more stable, and I'm on some new medication, and honestly? I feel fucking fantastic. You may have noticed that I've recently (finally!) been able to do some actual art I was happy with – this is why. And I intend to keep that going. I've got a long list of picture ideas, and a new Argent story in the works too. It's still difficult to find the time to work on art/writing stuff, since my job keeps me busy on weekdays and I have other stuff happening on weekends, but I'm going to find some time anyway and I'm going to put it to use because I have actual, like, motivation now, and it's kind of awesome. 😁

Anyway, that's how things have been going for me. I hope you all are doing all right too!
