Hello, I'm Chipped Tune Chiptune, but please, call me Chip. I'm living in Chicoltgo with my twin brother Roughspun as a music producer.

On My Hiatus and the Future of This Blog

Hey guys. It's been a long time, hasn't it? I just wanted to start out this post by thanking you all for your support over the time I've been active on this blog. I know it's been a short run and very inconsistent, but everyone who has been following me has been undyingly supportive and I really can't help but thank each and every one of you for that. This blog got me through easily some of the worst times in my life; it gave me a safe place from all the shit going on in the real world and Chip's story was a really healthy way for me to get all of my anger and sadness out. That being said-- and I think everyone has realized this has been a long time coming-- it's time for me to officially end this blog. My interest in MLP has been drastically waning, and as such, my interest in my OCs has been waning. I still love all of my children dearly, but I would rather retool them to fit a broader universe than limit them to the MLP universe. If that was the only problem then I would probably continue, but truth be told, I just haven't really cared about drawing as of late. Pushing myself to draw, especially with my busy school schedule, is honestly just a fruitless effort. As I put more and more focus into my music and my studies, I put less and less time into drawing, and I sincerely don't mind. I love music and I love my second major and I have been so invested in those that my dreams of becoming a great artist seem unrealistic and unnecessary. Art has gone from a passion to a hobby at best. I want you all to know that this is coming from a place of happiness, not of disdain or sadness. Over the past five months I have had to sort out a LOT in my personal life. At first it was really really rough, but after a while I found my inner happiness in my personal life. Tumblr was always an escape from all the problems I had in my life, and once I sorted those problems out and figured out the direction I was going, tumblr became a lot less essential to my mental health. I am leaving this blog because I don't need it's therapeutic qualities anymore. Chip and Rough's story, whether or not people are aware of this, was always a version of my story. Chip was lost and running from a past she hated, and Rough was eternally optimistic but internally struggling with the reality of the situation. These were things that I was dealing with my whole life, and in writing and making a comic about these problem, I was figuring them out myself. Now that I have resolved these issues in my life and am in a better place mentally, I find writing Chip and Rough's story to be significantly less compelling. This all being said, I am not ditching tumblr as a whole. I'm going to be over on my now main blog @jhyllah , consistently, albeit with a lot less art stuff and a lot more things from my personal life, reblogs, aesthetics, etc. I'll also hop back on skype and discord. The only real blog that is being laid to rest is this one and my short-live RP blog. I'll post a little more in detail about where I have been and why I went MIA on @jhyllah. I'm honestly really really sorry to everyone I have let down by leaving and everyone I have just left hanging. It was a horrible, selfish thing to do and I'm really sorry to the people I may have worried by completely disappearing for five months without a trace. I'm sorry to all the people I owe art, you honestly must be so pissed and I totally understand and feel absolutely horrible about it. I'll be responding slowly to my messages over the next few days as my schedule is rather intensive, but I promise I will respond to everyone I have left hanging. And for the last time on this blog, thank you all Love you lots Sincerely, Jhyllah

I will be making more, but in the meantime, if you’re interested in having your own cake-based adoptable then you can contact me with a picture of a cake you like and I will make a design based off of it for $20!

“So what is it that you want from me?”

Perhaps you should ask her something

[chippedtune-blog]

Oh gosh, guys, a whole year on tumblr and 1500+ followers. It has been such an amazing, emotional, hard, happy year and I honestly cannot thank all of you enough for being here and supporting my blog <3

I have a lot of feelings but I don’t want to chew everyone’s ears off so if you want to hear some really sentimental mod ramblings, read below the cut. 

When I started chippedtune a year ago, I honestly didn’t expect the huge impact this blog would have on my life. I knew it was something I would get into, I knew I wanted to do a lot with the characters and the story, but I never really could have imagined just how much running this blog has meant to me. Getting to know all of you through my characters has been such an absolute joy and an honor and has been overall such a positive experience. The chance to be a part of a community that is so diverse and accepting and welcoming is just such a new experience, and it’s such a beautiful feeling to just have a sense of belonging. I know it may be a little silly to get so emotional about a horseblog, but it means more to me than just the pones. This year has been really really rough for me emotionally between my first year at uni and financial problems and a hard break-up, but this blog has always been such a consistent source of happiness and support and love. Knowing that there is a big warm community waiting to greet me whenever I log onto tumblr has had such a positive effect on my life. You all have helped me get through the last year and I genuinely cannot thank every single one of you enough for that. To everyone who has taken any amount of interest in my blog, people who have reached out and talked to me, people who ask questions, just all of you who have been along for the ride, thank you. Thank you so so so much  from the bottom of my heart <3. It has meant the world to me.
