God, it's been over 6 months since I've done anything here. A lot has happened in that short amount of time though. You know that I had to take a retail job when I was let go from the magazine position. Not that all retail work is bad, but not when it makes you feel like less of a person. I seriously doubted my talents for a long time and had no desire or drive to do the one thing that makes me happy. It was one of the lowest points in my life. 

But there were a few things that kept me going. I can't thank the universe enough for my fiancé. He was the one that kept me from falling into a total funk and encouraged me to keep going, that I would make it through this. And wouldn't you know it...

I received a call from the newspaper I interned for last year. They were looking for a new graphics person since the girl working then was moving on to a new job and they offered me an interview. Needless to say I got the job! I have been with them now for 3 months and hope to be there for much longer.

With this new job I now have my weekends back (YAY!) and I'm looking to get back into the habit of drawing once a day. I won't promise anything new soon but I have a new Tumblr in the works where I'll post just my doodles and any finished work (in addition to here). Once it's up I'll announce here as well as my main blog so please feel free to drop on by :)

To close, I'd to say thank you to all my new followers and all the favs from when I was away. I'm happy to know that people still like what I do. It's badly needed encouragement. 

Thank you all so much.
