[ad] the first 500 people to use my link will receive a one month free trial of Skillshare: https://skl.sh/fictionalfates01241

this video has been a month in the making, and i'm so glad i'm finally able to present this to you — it's been such a joy to be open and honest, to experiment with the creative process and bring a video that i'm truly proud of making.

i hope you like it, and i can't wait to see y'all in the comments!
