Sorry to keep y'all waiting.

As of this coming week, I'm going to be easing off the hiatus I've been on for a couple of months now, and hopefully I'll be able to get back into the swing of things before too long. Thank you everyone for being so patient.

On May 6th, two things happened. First, my major deadline passed and most of my work for this year was handed in, so that's good.

However, my 3DS was stolen, along with my bag and a lot of my art supplies.

As you can no doubt imagine this was very upsetting and I've been contacting everyone possible in an attempt to recover it, but at this point, it isn't realistically likely.

It happened on a bus. The police have been informed and CCTV has been recovered, so we have images of the thief, and we know where he got off, but until someone comes forward and says they recognise them, I'm out of luck. I've also emailed Nintendo today to ask if there's been any online access of my NNID account, and whether it'd be transferable to a new console if I do end up having to replace it. I had a decent amount of data in there and I am pretty anxious to recover it.

Also in my stolen bag were almost all the sketchbooks and drawings I've been using for the last year, as well as most of my art equipment, such as pens and pencils.

I know it's an extreme long shot, but I had several users on here added on my friend list. Have any of you seen any unusual activity in the last couple of weeks? If I were the thief the first thing I would do is to format the 3DS entirely and delete all previous accounts and information, but hey, no harm in asking.

Anyway, let's not get too depressed. 
I'm going to be getting back onto commissions and comics once again in the coming weeks, although there are still several things to wrap up work wise on my end.

I'd also really like to do a stream some time soon, as it's been far too long, and I miss the stream shenanigans I've come to associate with our community in Summer. Watch this space in the next week or two, and we'll see if I can't get something going.

Anyway, that's about it for now.

Later all.

That's awful! Some people exist only to ruin other people's lives.
I feel even more awful knowing you lost your sketchbooks; I freak out when I misplace any of the tiny strips of paper I doodle on, but to lose a whole sketchbook, and more than one? I don't want to imagine it. D: I'm so sorry Epifex. D:
