Hey, I drew more males this year than I last year! Lol, well I'm glad I got to fill up all the spots on this template, and even though I haven't been drawing much I'm glad I at could whenever I got the chance. Welp, we shall see what I bring out next year, so I will hopefully be prepared for that

Also, here is a journal for my resolutions/goals for next year if you guys are interested in reading it:
2024 Resolutions/GoalsSo, usually, I would post my resolutions and goals in my art summaries, but this will be long, so I decided to post them in a journal instead. Brace yourselves, ‘cause I got a lot to say here.Well, I am happy to say that I got to finish one of my writing projects before 2024 comes—my Silverwing fanfic Where the Wild Calls—and I’d say I’ve gotten a bit better with my art skills. Though I could’ve done better with posting more content on my other social media accounts, I admittedly had no creativity for reels and such, but I’m hoping to maybe motivate myself for that for next year. That might be a stretch, but we’ll see. Okay, resolutions and goals… Well, for starters, I’d like to try to focus most of my attention on my writing. Don’t get me wrong, I love to draw whenever I get the chance and have inspiration, but writing is where my true passion lies, so I’d like to try and post more chapters for my writing projects in 2024 without trying to burn myself out. But that does not mean I’ll be retiring from drawing, so I’d like to at least do it whenever I can. Speaking of writing projects, another goal of mine is to try to finish my Secret of NIMH fanfic in 2024. I have a few more chapters to write for it, and I believe I’ll end at around twenty-something chapters for it. I am still amazed that this fanfic is garnering so many favs and follows on Fanfiction.net. No words can describe how thankful I am for all the amazing people who have given it a chance, and it has motivated me to finish this fanfic this year—hopefully, at least. I’d also like to continue writing my novel. As some of you may or may not know, I'm someone striving to be an author, and I hope to one day get my novel out there. I just hadn’t found my inspiration to write it, but I think I found it somewhat, as I have posted a couple more chapters thus far in 2023, and I certainly would love to keep writing it. Even though there are likely many typos and plot holes that need fixing, I’m determined to continue writing it. Regarding typos and plot holes, I’d like to maybe go back to Where the Wild Calls and do lots and lots of heavy editing and rewriting. Don’t get me wrong, I’m proud that I finished it and loved working on it. However, there were many things I could’ve done better back then, but you can’t blame younger me; younger me didn’t know any better XD. Does this mean I will try to proofread and edit the whole fanfic this year? No. I’m just going to focus on doing all that for part one since this is a large fanfic and because I would like to focus on the things I have mentioned thus far and what I will soon mention below. I’m just gonna pace myself, and whether or not I finish editing and rewriting some things in part one this year, I will just go with the flow, the same being for parts two and three as the years go on, as anything can happen, so you never know. If necessary, I might request a couple of beta readers to help me with this monstrosity of a fanfic since this will be a lot of work. Last year, I had a resolution where I hoped to host a contest for my Silverwing fanfic after I finished it. However, I was once again hesitant because it was primarily because of how many people might consider joining, and there was also the fact that I technically didn’t have any good references for my main OCs of the fanfic. This year, I’m hoping that’s different. I plan to make better reference sheets for my OCs like Kass, Holden, Martin, Dianna, etc. If all goes well, I may try to host my first-ever contest. For 2023, I managed to read twenty-six books, which is honestly pretty good, in my opinion, as in 2022, I didn’t exactly do very well with keeping up with reading any books. I read not only published books but also self-published books. I honestly believe that self-published authors deserve as much credit as published authors do, and I highly recommend you guys support some of the self-published authors out there as there are some pretty good books by them. In 2024, I aim to read twenty-five books for my goal, and if I’m lucky, I might get higher than that. Then, I would also like to work on my other fanfics and refrain from starting any other writing projects, but that’s pretty much it regarding resolutions and goals. So, I know this is a long shot, but I will try and see how it goes in 2024. Like I said, anything can happen, like a change of plans, but I’m gonna do my best to commit, and hopefully, it will not take a toll on me. Other than that, that’s pretty much all for me to say ^^,
