i lost my wacom intuos pro tablet pen after 5 1/2 years rest in peace sweet prince thats not even what it looked like long story below: ________________ anyways hi guys thought i should clarify that i am in fact not dead but i did a poor job of informing anyone what was going on and instead disappeared into the night so i figure here ill just be as honest as possible: i really dont have time for art or drawing or anything ive promised you guys before i left. i cant handle it at this point in my life and im glad that ive recognized this fact. its helped me to make some very positive changes in the way i live and the way i look at life and the people around me. and to further on that, in the last year or so i kind of felt like i was majorly letting people down. it feels kinda egotistical to use the word "fans" when im just some kid on a site like scratch. and i feel like ive always sort of been egotistical when it comes to this account. ive always branded myself heavily and made all sorts of big promises, most of which never came true. all in all, i feel like ive let people down. i promised many series, even gathered voice actors. people became invested in my characters and excited for their stories and i never delivered. and i also feel like i was in some ways a bad role model if only due to my immaturity. some of the issues my characters struggled with in their stories were romanticized in ways i now see are unhealthy or inaccurate and feel somewhat ashamed about. _________________________ i guess what im trying to say is, i dont want to come back until i have something to deliver. until i feel like i am fully ready to give you guys something that is amazing and well thought out and not rushed. its just not right to hype things up like i have if you never actually produce the content. im working on changing my ways. ive realized that i have to prepare a lot when creating a story. recently i started a document that will hold all the information about the story arcs of what used to be ashes, and that document just reached twenty pages long! it also includes far more characters than before because it fully elaborates on the history of the world they inhabit. this is the kind of quality i want to give you guys. so youll still see me check in every so often, but im not completely back until i promise i can make it worth it. draw on, sharky
