Hello everyone, this is Goodman.

Simply put, I'm planning to take a 2–3 week break next month to relax a bit. I'll work on some sketches and ideas in advance, and take some time to go hiking or do other activities to unwind.

If you care about this, please turn off your auto-renewal for next month, and you can reactivate it in March!

Now, I’m going to vent a bit about my recent life. Feel free to skip this part if you're not interested. XD

This month has been all about non-stop drawing—I’ve barely gone out at all.

My routine is basically: wake up, brush my teeth, draw; have lunch, draw; eat dinner, and keep drawing. Before bed, I watch my phone for a bit, and that’s the entire day.

Actually, this has been the case since December, but at least before January, I’d go out every ten days or so to grab a meal or take a walk. But this month, I’ve barely gone out to relax. Even when I did go out, it was to deal with something important.

This month, I’ve handled a ton of commissions and life matters: attending a funeral, helping both domestic and international Tickle artist friends improve their art, taking time to care for my grandparents and cook for them, and so on.

In short, excluding personal matters, I’ve had way too little time for my own art this month, which left me with almost no time to go out and unwind.

Most of the art I created this month has been commissions, and some of it can’t be shared publicly for now. So I’ve been using older sketches to fill the content on Fanbox.

Although I really enjoy the process of creating art and the joy that comes with improving, living like this for too long has started to feel monotonous.

In the past, I’d take breaks to go out for a nice meal and reset my mood, but without those moments of relaxation this month, I’ve found myself less and less motivated to draw as the days went on. Simply put, I’ve started to feel burnt out.

So, next month, I plan to slow down my updates and finally take a proper break. It’s about time I gave myself some rest.

After the recovery, I will bring you better works. Thank you for your support ;D
