Hello January 2025
31 Jan 2025 / updates
A lot has happened since the last post! Let's get into it.
In this update:
Website and Internet things
Rolled out a few new website updates:
- homepage has a "featured blog post" section which will link you to:
- my latest comic post
- a random, non-comic featured blog post
- homepage also has an Updates section (you may have clicked into this post from there). A summary of what I have been up to will be shared here every end of the month.
- This website now has an rss feed for the blog. If you want to keep up with my latest blog posts, feel free to add it to your favorite rss reader. The ones I use are FeedBro on Firefox desktop and Feedly on Android mobile.
- Downsized some of my socials, namely:
- said goodbye to two instagram accounts: anonabelle.ink (pen and ink illustrations) and anonabelle.paint (paintings). Any work I had on there are in their respective galleries on this website.
- decided to clear out my twitter. May use it to crosspost announcements/updates, but maintaining it isn't a priority for me.
- Worked on some minor website housecleaning to improve viewing/browsing experience.
Projects
- Added a small sequential art project where I experimented with a limited color palette to tell a story without words.
- Been working on Sun says Moon says since the start of 2024. Currently 90% complete - but boy is that final 10% kicking my ass. Final push, go!
Life updates
2025 has been fun so far, and I mean that with equal parts sincerity and sarcasm.
The Bean (family dog) and I have been dealing with some Bodily Shenanigans this month - him liver problems due to age, mine a drawing hand injury due to poor timing and judgement. We're both nearing full recovery now (thankfullly) but hoo boy was the start of January rough.
What has been keeping me sane? The Wicked (2024) OST, on loop since December. My favorite so far is Wizard and I.
Any new plans?
My life continues to be dominated by SunMoon. Both dreading and looking forward to what life will look like once it's done.
