Why am I taking an extended break from social media saturation? Because after careful thought and sensing virtual overload, I feel it’s in my best interests mentally, physically, and emotionally. I won’t completely delete my account (at least not now—baby steps, baby steps), but I’ve deleted the app from my phone and electronic devices to avoid convenient access, which just feeds the vicious cycle of addiction (How many likes have I gotten? Why hasn’t anyone like my posting? I need validation! Recognition!)
So please, if you want to contact me, do so through–you know–the old fashioned way (email, text, instant messaging, phone call?!) I’ll continue to use WordPress to post web comics, art, and writerly text, so if you’re interested in what I’m up to and want to join the conversation, you can do so here, where I’ll be spending most of my online time. Thanks for reading this far!
