Thank you for your thoughtful comment, as always! I've got a lot of things in the pipeline for 2025 that I think you're all going to enjoy very much, and I can't wait to share it with you!

I won't big up or trash London myself, personally I've never been appealed by city life, too busy and chaotic for me, but it's good that you've been able to find somewhere that works better for you and your husband. Having more space is definitely a plus, as London is unreasonably expensive these days. Algorithm changes and the rise of AI has annoyed me, despite not being an artist myself. Art shouldn't be shoved into a corner because it covers adult content or themes, and the AI generated art raises a lot of ethical questions. I'm not a fan, as I've been able to tell when AI has been used, there's this weird artificial look to it and they often look samey and have goofs. It won't go away, and as it gets more advanced it will compete (rather unfairly) against actual artists, as unfortunately there will be individuals out there who would rather use AI for "free" content than pay actual artists who add soul and a creative spark that is missing from what a computer can spit out. True art takes time, and deserves to be paid for, so I'm very sympathetic to all the artists out there. I'm very much looking forward to your upcoming stories, I love the way you write your characters, so will continue supporting you. That includes commissions, wouldn't mind paying for more scenarios where I've been fattened up, you did an amazing job with my one a few months back. Hoping you have a great xmas period and that 2025 is filled with growth (😉) for your artistic side.
