I have lots of stuff in my inbox. Probably won't answer them all.
I know I've been gone a lot. Been going through some pretty crazy changes. Mostly ups. Volunteer work, new self worth. I'm happier than I've ever been.
Anywho, I'm leaving DA. Semi-temporarily, at least. This means that I'll leave everything up and such, but I don't plan on returning. It's not IMPOSSIBLE that I'll return one day, but I truly doubt it.
I met some close friends on here. Dealt with MANY a dramatic people. I learned a lot, with the DA community to thank.
I just feel that DA is in no way helping me grow as an artist. I look, and I see this site for children who want to draw sparkledogs and write anime fanfics.
If I want to pursue any professional work in photography, I should do it elsewhere.
Love you guys. Karen, Kitty, and Brad, you're very dear to me, and I couldn't have met you without DA.
If anyone else wants to keep in contact with me, look for me on facebook or at your local bar.
To everyone else, I bid you farewell. It's been a wild ride.
