Hey Everyone! New(ly Returning lol)

I almost feel weird making an introduction post with over 13k comments and having been a member of this place since 2004 (this is my third account but the one that stuck )

But I have been gone for maybe a decade or more at this point, if not longer. For years though, this was like a second home to me. Made a lot of great friends on here, got to know so many incredible people, and this place was really important to me during a very transformative time in my life. And in some ways, I am hoping it can be that again, as I am returning at a stage in my life where I am doing some really deep soul-searching and trying to figure out my path for the next 20 years.

My name’s Anthony, I’m passionate about telling stories, creating art, and working on video game development. I have been trying to restart my art dreams lately, so I hope to have some new work to be able to share really soon. I just haven’t felt like I was in a great place mentally for awhile to make work I was happy with, and anxiety has made it hard to get going sometimes, but I’m working on it.

I love nature, exploring and being outdoors as much as possible, and would love to go on a cross-country road trip one of these days and take time to explore as many states along the way as I can.

I’m definitely an introvert, and usually pretty quiet around people especially in groups, but when you get to know me, I can talk for hours if it’s something I’m passionate about lol

I’m a pretty open book, so feel free to ask me anything and reach out any time! I’m looking forward to reconnecting with old friends on here and making new ones as well!

 

Welcome back!

 

Thank you!
