Am I Good Enough?

Posted by ZenonRetna - November 29th, 2024


Sorry if I feel like I’m down today, but I’ve been having this feeling I need to get off my chest. Sometimes I wonder to myself “am I doing a good enough job here?” Because I look back at everything I’ve done in the past few months, and see a lot happen. Some good, some not so good, more than I really thought I needed. Am I trying too hard, or not hard enough?


It’s just tough living the life I do, with family issues that creep up on me. Between growing up in a house of a half dozen kids, being the second oldest with its own responsibility. To having health problems like arthritis and depression, which are not easy to fix. And having parents who don’t love each other, to the point of getting divorced. I’ve been through a lot before I came here, and I still am from time to time.


Being on Newgrounds has helped me through all these feelings, and I’m glad I could make some friends here who like me with all my problems. I’m also thankful for all the fans I have, which again I didn’t expect to have so many. I still feel like I wanna keep going, but I’m never sure how much harder I need to keep trying. I hope you all understand how I feel.


Have a good Black Friday.

Once thing i notice about your art
You should try to uh... Making some poses to your art, to make it look a bit unique rather than using the same one over and over again

Usually, I draw them in a standing pose for design reference. If I draw them again in the future, I will have them in different poses. Thank you for pointing that out.
