Just wanted to briefly talk about my OCs and stuff going forward so to not throw anyone for a loop in the future.

Firstly, most of my characters I initially created for YAFC (Hawk, Mynt, Sam, Vix, James, and Dennis) except Hawk, Sam, and Vix, I'm basically not gonna use anymore since I'm not doing that whole thing anymore essentially. I'll have James, Dennis, and Mynt, though I'll barely use them.

As for the extras I created (Mocha, Flynn, Mira, Christine, and Kris), Mocha and Flynn will be kept but I will basically never use Mira or Christine anymore and I'm just gonna give Kris to someone else because I realized he was basically redundant to have considering other characters fulfill his exact purpose better.

Secondly, I've decided to not really have any characters in Nightlife except for Ferris for now. Therefore Jamie will not be used, and if I do end up using him he'll be heavily reworked anyways so he's essentially gonna be a new character at that point.

Thirdly, my old sonas (TurboR, Kitsune Ink, and Cinnamon) will still exist though they'll just be characters I draw instead of sonas of mine. My old pokesona Krist will be scrapped.

Lastly, I've heavily considered making new characters that I can just draw doing whatever, so I'll likely draw some random characters and if i really like their design I'll keep them as characters of mine.

That's about it, I'll draw something in the next couple days.

I've been thinking a lot about dropping my current internet presence and starting over under a new handle and appearance. Either that or just using the new name and handle for social stuff while keeping my art accounts under the same name they are now.

I might do it if everyone's cool with me doing that.

Feeling better mentally, will return to drawing again very soon.

Also, Nightlife will likely start sometime next week or the week after.

I'm taking a break from drawing (or really doing anything) for about a week or two, mainly for three reasons.

1. I feel like I've been working myself a bit hard recently.

2. I'm gonna be moving back home at the end of the month and I need some stuff to be taken care of.

3. My mental health has taken a nosedive in the past days and I just need to feel better.

That's about it, see you again in a few weeks.

For a LONG overdue post, I mentioned in the previous one that I was gonna be making a new comic in place of YAFC. This journal will detail some info on that comic.

For starters, the comic is called Nightlife and deals with Ferris Nexx, a 24 year old vampire bat who has moved far away from his parents into a major city (not any real life city, but based heavily off NYC). The comic deals with having to adjust to living in a big city and the inner dynamics of him as a person, along with his social and romantic life.

Secondly, as stated, it takes place in a big city, and it takes place entirely at night (because Ferris is nocturnal, because he's, y'know, a bat).

Thirdly, the comic is (like just about everything else I've done) not for kids, as it's full of swearing, mature themes, violence, and sexual references. But since this is the internet kids will read it anyways. Oh well.

Lastly, I'll attempt to give it a proper schedule instead of comics just being released sporadically. Current goal is 1-2 comics per week starting in July.

First thing's first, I have finals coming up this month (last week of May) and then I graduate the week after (thank CHRIST), so I'll be a little bit busier than usual.

But onto the point of this journal, I won't be doing YAFC for a while. I honestly have no real idea how to work it into something with a full storyline and things of the sort. If anything, it'll probably just be relegated to some short storyline comics instead of something with a continuous story.

However, in its place, I have something bigger planned.

More info on that later.

I initially created her as an april fools prank, but screw it, I'm keeping her now.

She isn't replacing my main sona though.

So the one I bought recently apparently isn't very good, lol. So I instead ordered a different one that's apparently much better, this one specifically. But on the downside it's gonna arrive later than intended. So I guess I'll continue drawing stuff with the mouse until that arrives.

As I mentioned in my latest drawing, I had something to announce in a post, and that is...

I FINALLY ORDERED A DRAWING TABLET!!!!

So until that arrives, I most likely won't be drawing anything else (except if I do like one last drawing for the hell of it), hence why I posted the drawing now.

I won't post them on Newgrounds or Pillowfort because of the principle of it, but they'll be mainly posted on my DA because it gives the highest quality because Twitter's compression is assdicks.
