Update, as of 10/31/2019:

OK so, I've been at this for a little while and I guess I'm kind of due for an update.  Simply put, my feet are now firmly planted on the ground and I have met MULTIPLE incredible people along the way.  Some that are now as close as family.  I have started dipping my toes into voice acting, and am currently working on a project with literally ALL of these mentioned incredible people.  Aside from that, I also have a writing job that I've been wanting since I found out it existed.  Amazing people, a new hobby/love in the creative world, and literally having a job (even though I'm just starting) that literally pays me for what I've loved doing since I was 6 years old.  What more could I POSSIBLY ask for?  Even if I could, I don't think I would.
