Yeah, as I said, it's not very effective and I'm only really managing to keep it up due to being able to do a quick 15 minute lesson right before bed. I have some workbooks and do often end up perusing and attempting to converse in japanese to practice, but I don't manage to keep it as consistent due to all the other things I have to balance.
Language learning and art practice both tend to quickly get put on the backburner for weeks whenever I get busy with a project or whenever work gets busy.
