Happy New Year

I am sorry.

I want to start the new year with an optimistic message about looking forward to new opportunities.

However, I cannot keep generating hope from nothing.

My life has been on a downward trajectory for seven years now. There have been occasional bright spots, certainly, but the overall direction has been towards darkness. While I am still a far distance and many rest stops from "dying alone in a ditch," the highway of my life is certainly heading towards that final destination, and I believe my last possible exit has already been long passed.

I do not do well as a "tortured arteest." The conditions for my best productivity are when I have stability, comfort, and happiness, all of which have been increasingly taken from me over the years.

I do not want to go into details, partially because this is already more than dramatic and whiny enough, and partially because some of the coming year's problems might even include legal battles.

I genuinely want to draw illustrations. I genuinely want to write and draw comics. But I am struggling.

I know others have their own problems. I know some people have worse situations than I do. So, I say this with that awareness and with caution:

I hope that you are looking forward to a bright and rewarding 2026.
