I’m always trying to remember to connect with people more, even at a distance (even tho’ I also took a long sabbatical from Facebook this year and it made a big difference in my overall anxiety as well). I do really miss my friends in the States, tho’. I’m happy to say my daily routine is very simple and I think that’s been great for reducing my overall stress level… I’m doing a lot of work but I have fewer social obligations.

I just did a quick read-through of my last three Year in Review posts ( 2015, 2016, and 2017) and wow, the years really are passing by soooo fast now. It’s now been more than 3 years that I have been living in Montréal and also making a living without a 9-5 style “day job” (tho’ believe me when I say that I’m working everyday!). Many many thanks to all of you who follow my work, and a special blessing upon all those who have supported me on Patreon now or in the past… It really adds up and makes a tremendous difference to me. A drawing I did for Pow Pow’s 2019 Calendarĭecember is here again, so its time for me to complete one of my now-traditional “Year in Review” posts… This now marks my fourth year of making my way in the world as a freelance creative, and I am still so humbled and pleased that I can somehow manage it.
