More Delay on Updates

Hey guys, I might have to postpone/put on hiatus Yume Connection. Some of you may know, but I am currently one of the convention artists for CPAC, a college-run anime convention. This year I signed up for additional roles under publicity because I wanted to do more. But then, I found out ... the chair for publicity resigned. This means they are having emergency elections for a replacement. Because I don't want the possible replacement candidate to run the publicity position, in addition to having many stances on how publicity should be run, instead of just left to "Con Things" (UGH. I hate that phrase.), I think I might run. But this role would be a huge responsibility. If not done right, we may destroy future chances of running the convention. Plus, I'm an engineering student so my workload is heavier than the rest of the convention chairs already. (19 credits compared to 15 of other majors here) I think I'm not going to be able to even try to finish Webtoo

About LLAG

A different type of blog post. A rant. https://www.facebook.com/joshualunacreations/posts/875466382609649 I saw this online. A friend had shared it with a comment that she doesn't support LLAG or NextShark. We are both Asian Americans. I realized how much I agreed with that thought. I was debating it for awhile but wasn't sure if in the end I unfollowed the page. Turns out I did. I return to her post, and I was about to comment this: For a while, I was supportive of the page (LLAG). Maybe naive and curious about it, as it was an active page promoting the "Asian American voice". But as time went by, I was like, this isn't how I view America should be. This isn't how I view the world, this isn't how we, Asian Americans, should be seen as. I felt like maybe it was just some occasional radical thoughts, maybe to garner more views or whatever. So a few weeks went by, and this type of speech continued, which is just too much. I felt like he was hating on white

Yume Connection Cover Photo Rant+ Personal Rant+ Page 6th Year Anniversary

Image
Okay, I may have finished the prelude and the first chapter, but then I discovered I didn't draw the cover photo. And then I started freaking out. Those pictures are damn important and I forgot about it. So now I have ~5 days to figure out what I'm supposed to do. They say "don't judge a book by its cover", but in reality, there are definitely people who do. All the pictures I have of Yume Connection only have Ayumi with the exception of the Wattpad cover. I don't really have an official image for Cyan yet either. I know I sorta wrote it down in the Yume Connection Characters Page but it's not a definitely image. His image, and name has always been changing. Even his personality is a pain. (I'm not sure whether he's a go-getter or a lay back and enjoy kind of person.) Soon I will have to decide but for the cover I am deciding whether Cyan should even be in the shot. But then... he's also a main character.... Hmmm... Meanwhile in my per
