Hi friends~

Once again I want to thank you all for not dropping me off your watch lists because of my absence. Bad physical and mental health is a tough thing to deal with, but one of my New Year's resolutions for 2018 was to be more active on the internets, and hey! it only took me until halfway through June to get around to that one! .-.;

I threw up a bunch of new stuff into my gallery the last few days, trying to get you all what I've been working on since...*checks wrist*...2014. I'm hoping my updated gallery will give me a better chance in juries for conventions, so I'll be able to see more of you out there in the wild. <3 I plan to go through my gallery and move some stuff around, so older drawing may be disappearing into scraps, and I want my "featured" folder to really be a show-off portfolio. I have a few more little things yet to add, but they're still floating around in my computer folders, so expect some more small updates to continue.

As for conventions for the rest of this year, this is what I've got:
Geek.Kon - Aug 24-26 Middleton, WI - confirmed!
Lion Con - Sept 22-23 St. Paul, MN - confirmed!
YoumaCon - Nov 1-4 Detroit, MI - application pending
DaishoCon - Nov 16-18 Wisconsin Dells, WI - application pending

As for other things, I am trying to be active in other parts of the internet, mostly social media. So!
*For art, convention, and product updates as well as product photos and live, at-con shenanigans, please follow me on Twitter and Instagram [at]art_by_nozomi ! The accounts aren't super active right now, but I'm working on it, I swear!
*For real life updates, as well as writing and D&D shenanigans, please follow [at]NozomiNeko on Twitter. This is my personal account, where you can keep tabs on how I'm doing at life and bother me about things! (don't bother me too much please stress is hard lol)
        (^^^ the @ signs are doing really weird things when I published this, so please know the [at] is calling for the @ symbol ^^^)
*I also have a Facebook page and a Patreon, but both need a lot of work before I start plugging them... But keep a look out for those in the future!

I think that's all I have for now! Thanks again for sticking around, and I hope to see you again soon~~

So I did the thing again. For the same reasons, really... .-.;; Health has been bad, I can't seem to manage my time because my meds have me sleeping constantly. So...........sorry for being gone again.

I have been working on stuff and trying to get things prepped for display for posting, but haven't gotten it all ready yet. Sadly I won't have time to do any of that until some time in June. Busy with family stuff for the next two weeks, and then I've got two cons right after I get home.

My next con is JAFAX in Detroit June 16-18, and then I'll be at Let's Play, WI in Green Bay, WI June 30-July 2. Hoping to have some new stuff to show by/before then!

See you again here in two-ish weeks!!

Hello!

I realize it's been almost a year since I've been here. I really am sorry about that. I'm not dead, though! Despite 2016's numerous attempts to kill me, I'm still alive. A lot of stuff happened, and most of it's very personal, so I'm not going to talk about it here. My health is still awful, my life is still a mess, but I'm not dead. I'm not okay, but I'm not dead. And that's what counts, yeah? xD

I'm going to do my best to be active here again like I was before 2012... I'm gonna fix this, I promise. <3

Thanks for sticking with me. I hope to regain your love.
