Hey so its been a while.

A lot has happened since my last entry and hiatus. Where to start? Lets address things from previous entry. 

  1. Heart op all went well and has made a such a difference to me, I can actually go out on hot days if I like to providing I cool off in the shade which is nice, before I would've had to stay indoors and pray for no chest pains which would mean a trip to hospital.
  2. Weight is back, still not sure exactly what happened but have followed doctors advice and am almost back to previous weight
  3. As for my previous relationship, less said about that the better whilst there are issues from that which I will deal with in time but its no longer worth typing about.
Lately this year I have had surgery again, this time not on my heart, only to find out 2 days after a close friend who I have known for 13 years passed away suddenly. Its come as a shock and I have been diagnosed with depression and also with anxiety.

Having my anxiety diagnosed is actually a relief and I will be getting therapy for that once I have got better hold on my depression, which is why I have logged on for the first time in what seems like forever. I want to get back into being creative again, admittedly I haven't been able to draw since my friend passed away but I feel like that needs to change we always encouraged each other when it came to creative projects.

I'm thinking maybe ease myself back into it all with some charcoal work? That being said I have managed a little writing for Evelyn's tale which has sat neglected for far too long.

So I guess what I'm saying is hi and I am around sort of so please feel free to tag me or message me I will reply just not immediately.

I think I should leave da or at very least for a while then return with new account when Im more myself.

Not everyone knows but since July life hasnt been fantastic for me. I found out I have a heart condition which Ive had all my life but never diagnosed, my bf of 1year 3 months left me as was all too much plus I have lost fair amount of weight since feb and those who know me in real life know Im not exactly big anyway so its not brilliant.

So naturally Ive been feeling down and unable to be that creative which is frustrating, its also frustrating as I want to branch away from fan stuff and be more original, I know its there as at uca the ideas kept coming. Ive felt awful that Ive not been able to post anything so thats why I think a break would be good.

Ive currently left up things Ive done for people in past encase they werent saved but will deactivate this account as username isnt me anymore and with everything thats happened think it'll be good for a fresh start at some point in future. If you want contact info for me to keep in touch please pm me.

Love you guys xx

Sorry for the lack of art on here lately things are still a bit hectic what with my dog passing away suddenly last week and few health problems which means real life has taken over so art is kind of on a bit of a back burner and working on odd doodle/sketch every now and then.

Even though I sadly wont be able to make it to any expo's this may I've decided to come up with a list of characters who I'd like to cosplay as over the years which I'll put up in another journal though if anyone has any suggestions feel free to let me know. The reason I'll be posting the list or at least some of it is most of the characters have multiple outfits so I'll probably need a hand picking one or two out. :)

On my DA page I am almost at the 5,000 mark and would like to celebrate by thanking my watchers with a drawing of their choice, but I also realise that its passers by who also make up that number so I'm opening it up to friends aswell so if you want a drawing for a friend all you need do is ask, same for people who dont watch me but still talk to me via notes, your welcome to one too.

Comment below or send me a note, with who you would like a drawing of (your oc, friends oc, character from anything or a couple) and what with (pencil, colour, paint, charcoal) or leave the last bit as a surprise.

Can't wait to hear from you all, and thank you all :)

1) :iconmechilah: - Disney Princesses

2) Tony - Doctor (colour)

I've finally sat down and have begun writing Evelyn's tale :D

I've only written a few short snippits so far but this one contains quite a big spoiler, I want someone (not sure who), to check it over just to see if the style of writing is ok and makes sense to them. Then if that goes alright then it shouldnt be too long before I'm writing the whole thing.
