For those I haven’t met yet, hi.  *waves*  I haven’t been on here for like 2 years? 3? But I wanted to get into the writing habit ag…[Read more]

WHOA!! Has it really been THREE MONTHS since I posted in this thread?!  . . .

Okay, it has.

Tell me what you all think of this poem.

@the-fledgling-artist Do you have any critiques for this piece? This is from a little while ago, but I was wondering if you had any idea of things I might be able to improve upon.

This one is another very personal to me.  Critique and enjoy!

Twenty-One
Sometimes I don’t think I qualify
For twenty-one
Weighed down by the times I have to try
I’ve never…[Read more]

Okay, I guess I’ll post in this thread when I remeber too! LOL.

Here is my latest poem. Critique and enjoy!

True North

It seems that all the world has lost it’s…[Read more]

Don’t really know what to say about this one. Any and all critiques welcome!

My Morning Song (What you will say to me)

The sunlight is dawning
And though I am still…[Read more]

Thank you very much! Hands and feet have always been one of my weaker points when it comes to drawing, and I never know where to start when working on improving them. Thank you so much for the feedback and I hope you’re doing well.

I’m not sure if anyone would know who this character is XD

I’ve already posted this elsewhere and been told that the knees are a little difficult to differ from the rest of the leg. The lines are supposed to seem simple and blocky, but please feel free to critique it. Something’s …[Read more]

Aw this is so nice of you!! 😁 I would love to take you up on your very generous offer. 😛 I enjoy art, hand lettering, and graphic design. So I think developing my art skills further would be a good thing to do! Not sure what level I am… Maybe intermediate? I tend to mainly draw people straight on, so I’m not as good with…[Read more]

Hope you all enjoy!

All of the Pieces
All of my pieces I’d scattered o’er
The cracks in the surface of my stone heart floor
All of my days were lost so empty
Then You came and…[Read more]

So cool!!! Ah, I totally get that…. The only real progress I’ve gotten done is figure out some detailed backstory/world-building. Oh, well.

Anything interesting happening in thine life?

This one I have been trying to finish for over a year now. Critque and enjoy!

Resolutions

I wrote my list of resolutions
Not to create my own solutions
I want to live like my…[Read more]

Oh, that sounds nice! I’m glad you got to see people. 🙂

He is worth loving. XD

Hmmm. I’m stuck debating between Stefano and Carlotta. Thoughts?

I could play a couple… but again, that was a year ago, and I haven’t practiced since then. I highly doubt my muscle memory is so good that it kept it that long. 😛

Are there…[Read more]

Hey! Yeah, I had a great Christmas! Lots of snacking and board games.  How about you? Do you celebrate Christmas?

Awww I love how you named him! XD (I have to come up with a name for mine now. 😛 ) And well, I mean, C is like the backbone for all other scales, so good job!

It’s pretty much the same for me, I’ve been…[Read more]

Yup. Still in the early stages. (I haven’t gotten much writing done, with the holidays and all) Have you made any fun progress with your WIP?

Art critique, pls?

I know I’ve told a lot of you about my writing (*cough* and about my darling characters in particular). So I thought I’d invite you guys in!

My mailing list in particular is a bit unique. Rather than being a selling campaign, it’s instead a safe haven, a warm fireplace to sit beside and…[Read more]

Merry Christmas!!

Oh, wow! I keep forgetting about this. I am a bad thread-up-keeper . . . if there is such a word. . .

Anyway, this week’s is rather short. Just something I started singing to…[Read more]

Nice! What do you like to paint?

so usually when I get them out it’s more for the therapeutic feeling of making a mess

Next time my sister nags me about cleaning our room I’m just going to be like, “this is my therapeutic mess. Don’t you feel calmed?” XD

Thanks! And fine haha not level zero tech skills , but definitely v…[Read more]

I think music is absolutely wonderful. And I’m far from a musician myself, but I love screwing around on the piano. More often though, I listen to people who can actually sing/play haha. 😛

Do you play an instrument?

@mischievous-thwapling

Yes, thank goodness. At least for most of my classes. Hard to get out of everything…[Read more]

Same! And since I’m involved in a lot of threads on SE, I always feel guilty if I reply to one but not the other, so I’m always planning out a good time when I have time to respond to ALL of them XD

Ooooh, sounds exactly like the kinda book I would read! No, you didn’t ask it already XD Hmmm, I suppose mine’s some sorta…[Read more]

I know you weren’t talking to me, but can I just say: THAT IS AMAZING!! I love your style so much.

@the-fledgling-artist (I’ll try to keep this short since so many people are already talking to you XD)

WE DO!! So much in common…

Lol, I get that.  I make up annoying fragments as I go, too, so I have to patch it together, which…[Read more]

Wow, every single one of those suggestions is SUPER helpful.  Thank you guys so much!  And that’s very true about readers shipping characters whether you meant them to or not.  I’ve heard people put the strangest couples together from books I love, even if the author couldn’t have made it clearer that he or sh…[Read more]

Finger guns, you are awesome 😛

@mischievous-thwapling

Ha ha! 😛 Yeah, sometimes when I’m watching something I’ll be like “dude! That is the dumbest thing you could ever do! DON’T DO IT!” Also, I’ll say “ouch” for characters when they’re in physical pain, he he. And I’m thankful for your advice and time! I’m not very good…[Read more]

Yayyyy I finally got it upload. XD (My tech skills are about level zero.)

So, this is in charcoal which is why it’s super smudgy haha. Anyways, the guy on the left is an OC of mine named Offo, who is an elderly alchemist and loves gardening. The guy on the right is just some Irish-inspired warrior guy.

Exactly! The more I learn, the more I realize I still need to learn a whole lot more 😛 And thank you! Actually, most of it is in my head rather than paper (or google docs, ha ha) so it’s easy to come up with a lot by randomly coming up with ideas. But I would think comics would take longer bc you have to not only come up…[Read more]

Heyyyyyy looks like I’m a little late to the party haha. But anyways, welcome back to SE!

Also, just from seeing your profile picture, and the drawing you put on this thread, that WOW. I sketch on paper all the time but digital?  I’ve tried but it kinda ends up looking like what my 2nd grade cousin would draw. I’ll stick…[Read more]

This is how I know you’re sincere. If you’re offering to hear a rant on a book a writer’s working on, you’re truly amazing.

Umm, if I’m honest, these words can sum up my WIP the best: It’s everywhere.  I’m still figuring out some world building, plot structure type-stuff, and developing characters. I’ll be honest though:…[Read more]

LOL XD And finger guns… You’re the best.

@wingiby-iggiby

I really like the answers these people gave.  I would recommend taking their advice instead of mine… After all, last night, when I was watching a movie by myself, I found myself giving advice to the characters on how to stay alive in the situation…. And I…[Read more]

NaNo has been going pretty well considering what an awful procrastinator I am. 😬😂 I’m having a hard time really figuring out the tone of the story, so that’s a bit of a struggle, but overall it’s going really well!

Aw, yeah, I get it. Ever since the pandemic started, time has lost a lot of it’s meaning, if you know what I…[Read more]

If I only drew when I felt I was good at it I would have significantly less art to account for. :’) Haha.

Is that why I still don’t feel that good at drawing? 😛

Dude, your wip sounds awesome! Sounds like you’ve put a lot of work into ironing it out. :o!! How long has it been in the works??

Ha ha, thank you! I think abo…[Read more]

That makes sense! I’ll have to develop a little bit more then to make sure I got it. Thank you! 😀

@the-fledgling-artist

Thank you! That is probably one of the things I’ll end up doing, because drafts are made to rewrite, right? 😀 It will be like connecting the dots 😉 I hope I can discover what my writing process is soon… t…[Read more]

When did I join SE?  Uhhh…. Somewhere during this year? XD

Wow, you did draw your profile pic?  That’s awesome!  Skip’s and Kavi’s expressions have so much character.  And space elves…I’ve never heard of that before, but I love it.  (wait, I’ve sorta heard of them from Star Trek, but it’s not quite the same thing I thin…[Read more]

Life has been treating me…um…interestingly. 😬😂 It definitely hasn’t been all sunshine and roses, but I do have a lot to be thankful for, so I’m trying to keep my chin up.

I doing NaNo this year again, and it’s been going really well, so that’s cool! 😄 I was in…[Read more]

Well, I hope your life gets fun again!

Truth be told, my writing is going horribly! I can’t get anything done on any of my projects. I broke my writing habit. 😭 Motivation eludes me.

Other than that…life fares well.

Hi! I haven’t seen you in forever! *you probably don’t remember me…idk*

How goeth life? And art? And such things.

Ha ha, yeah — I draw when I think I’m actually good at it 😛 Hmmm… short way of explaining my fantasy? It’s about a silversmith’s son who befriends the heir to the throne of Banerow (Prince Kiark) in a quest to end his father’s tyranny. After they do this, though — through a lot of travel, negotiations, fights, hard…[Read more]

WELCOME BACK!! (Even though I don’t know you from before XD)

Question number one: Did you draw your profile pic and who is it of? (I guess that’s two questions)

Question number two: How long are your comics generally ? (Like how many pages?)

Question number three: What is your most unusual talent?

And this is not a…[Read more]

Hi!!! First of all, it’s so cool that you write comics. I take it you like to draw? Same here! And I understand not being able to work continually on anything you write. Story of my life, literally. I am working on a fantasy, and I seriously hope that this one will turn out better than my last one, which, of course, I never…[Read more]
