Keeping my head down for a while.

If you are reading this, it's likely because I have sent you a link to this blog. It's been sitting here idly for quite some time and I've decided to make use of it to keep in touch with a few of my online friends. As most of you might have seen by now, I'm taking an undetermined hiatus away from DeviantArt and many other online hangout places. If you want the extended details of the situation, you can read it all here here. The long and short of it is that I'm tired of being harassed by people for my Christian faith, my traditional values, and the way I decide to use my artistic ability. It's been over ten years and I have been through hell and high water over the issue. Some of you remember that around 2004-2006 I wasn't as hesitant on the topic and I often, frequently, included characters of alternate orientations in my artwork because I had many friends that played them alongside my characters from gaia and Dan's setting a while back. However, I began changing my policies when I felt morally convicted and those who I had been doing the artwork for turned hostile because while I tolerated them, I did not accept their behavior or take their side in the debate if they were simply supporters.

I do have a tumblr and I'll continue posting there as well, but the people on haters already have my tumblr account and honestly, if I can stay out of sight for a while maybe they'll find a new chew toy to occupy themselves with. I'll let you guys know there if and when I post new art, a blog, or whatever else but please, please don't give this url out to -anyone-. If I want someone to know I'm still around, I'll give them a link. I know some people have the best intentions but things always get out and I always get burned for it later on. Thank you for understanding.

Anyway, this is where I'll be. I don't like blogger, I don't like google's aps or anything like that but it's a fairly easy to use system and no one knows about it... I hope.
