Shutting One Door, Keeping others Open

UPDATED ON 8/20/21: Facebook, Patreon and Blog IG pages have been shutdown/discontinued As the COVID pandemic rages on and cons are even shutting down into 2021, it got me thinking on a drive home one night about how I'd feel with even coming back to blogging. When cons eventually do come back at some point. Truth be told, many of the posts and content I shared here could be transferred over to more discussions via my podcast CosplayBytes. I've been blogging my love for games, cons and cosplay for 7 years now and maybe it's time to say goodbye for now? My podcast has gotten me some incredible opportunities as a member of Press for conventions, and the rapid love I've had for streaming is also taking up a lot of time now. On top of multiple personal things on my end, I don't think I have the energy to keep this up even post COVID you know? The very first cosplay centered post I wrote was on Jessica Nigri's Deadpool, and since then it's spawned over 800 posts

Why She's my Favorite: Mink the Satyr

Photo by A peace of light

I'm 100% adamant in the fact that Mink the Satyr is another amazing individual who I'm ever so blessed to know. I honestly can't remember how we met but I do know that our first encounter was at NYCC with her as one of the Gem gals from Steven Universe! In addition, she also wore her incredible Ninetails gijinka to that same convention. Through long FB chats and phone calls, I'm so glad she's been a part of my life for as long as she has been. Mainly with my own insecurities and helping me make decisions I've made to better myself. Not to mention helping my blog expand with collaboration posts and being a guest on CosplayBytes several times! She's a master of horrible puns, and a wizard at REALLY creating authentic cosplay pieces. I currently have reminders of what went into her Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn as I'm writing this piece. The effort Mink put into that is just insane.

Mainly, Mink the Satyr is known for her incredible Pokemon gijinkas. In fact, that's pretty much the only thing she's created as of late. I know I'm not complaining <3. Whenever I have a shortage of posts to write, she's always there to lend a hand in providing me with SUPER in-depth write ups on some of her latest builds! She offers such amazing advice both cosplay wise and IRL tips as well. I genuinely want to thank her for helping me in my recent struggles since things I've dealt with are less prevalent thanks to her giant heart <3.

I've got some shots I wanted to share in addition to some convention photos of the 2 of us :D. Enjoy guys!
