..but I think I might be ready to get back into the fanfiction scene, again. It's been a hectic year, involving personal issues, medication, and moving states with my boyfriend. So yes, it's been at least a year of full-blown art block. A variety of factors are letting me finally get back to things I love, like writing. I have a number of projects that I completely stopped in the middle, including 'Disorder' (Kon/Tim) and the second chapter involving Dick/Jason called 'Reciprocation'. I also really want to get back to 'Bullets in the Boudoir', which I had big plans for. But time will tell. I have almost finished the last chapter of 'Disorder', so that should be up, soon. I'm probably going to be doing art again, as well. But this time, I'm going to try and do it for fun instead of getting really hung up on how I feel I can never measure up to other artists.
So thank you for your support and understanding, and I hope that I can get back into the swing of things!
Moved! Now I'm staying in a hotel in Portland...
and the Internet is atrocious. It was supposed to be ' free wi-fi' in every room, but it's horrid. They make you pay for internet that is like 2 times faster, and that's horrible too. To make that even more awesome, you need to pay $15 for each device to hook up to the new, 'better' internet. It lags and ugh...
But so far, it's been much cooler here than Cali. My bf and I seem to fit in better, since it's sort of a weird but lovely city. Lots of tattoos and wild hair colors and protesters. They march with snare drums through the large mall there and camp out in the streets and parks on the sidewalk.
Also, it's much more gamer/comic book gee
My first real paid commissions, Witcher 2..
Nipple piercings! I bit the bullet and got them done the night that we were all supposed to die, circa last month, just to know I did it! Well, I am still here, and they are now finally healing and looking lovely. Maybe I will post pictures at some point, and find fun little jewels to put on them.
So, recently I was approached for not one but three separate commissions. I am just very excited that someone values my art enough that I feel that I am allowed to step into the world of commissions. I'm not diving right in, I'm sticking my toes in. The commissioner mentioned that they were surprised at how little I asked for.
To anyone that cares
So I haven't been around much, lately...
I've been busy playing Guild Wars 2 with my hubby, and fighting against depression and some issues with an old back injury from my gymnast days. Also, super duper excited for Cold Days, the next book in the Dresden Files! I'm reading Ghost Story over to refresh my memory, and I forgot about how badass the characters get. Eeep! New Book! :bounce:
I've been roleplaying plenty, so it's not like I haven't been 'writing', but I haven't felt the need to write long fanfictions due to being fulfilled in the writing aspect. I hope at some point I can get back into it. For now, I'll settle for rp and proofing for other writers. =3
I LOVE my new Bambo
My heart goes out to the shooting victims...
How horrible! Going and seeing a movie only to have a nightmare come to life. Boyfriend and I agree that there is a HUGE problem with mental health issues. I am very lucky to have insurance, but many, many people here do not and don't always get the help they need. It's really very sad that he used his obvious intellect for such horrible things. If you know someone who is going through a tough time, remember to perhaps just say hi and brighten their day a little. Sometimes we go to extreme measures when we are sad, angry and lonely. Everyone needs a shoulder to lean on. Nobody can get through everything by themselves.
I hope those who were h

Oooh welcome back!!
Can't wait to see what you come up with! I know the feeling with the block of doom, I"m on the tail end of one too. It's been like pulling teeth trying to get any writing done, and I can't even seem to get up the motivation to pick up a pencil lately either. Slowly getting back into it, but it's been a bit of a grind for a while. It's strange how much impact things like stress and medications etc can have on our artistic side. It's like that part us that helps relieve stress and escape for a while gets overloaded and it's the first to short out at the worst possible times (especially when we only small blocks of time to be artistic in)! Gah! I'm rambling, you know all this, I"m preaching to the choir! Point is, it's awesome to see you back
Glad to see your muse is talking to you again, and life is being a little less hectic for you now!
