I really need to stop declaring projects. That's when they fall apart. Whoops.

Yes I've been very much not active lately.
Sorry loves!

I do have new plans now!

-I will be writing a short story a day over a span of two weeks, then taking a week off, then repeating.
-However for the first two weeks you guys will only see four of them.

Why?

Because I'm gonna be putting together an ebook!
I just really need some money and job prospects are still low and I'm just not that good at keeping up with the other stuff that's been available to me? So thank goodness Amazon has a kinda-self-publishing sort of thing.

But yeah more details will follow and I do hope people will want to buy it!
(Again details will be forthcoming so please don't ask yet I'll probs just get flustered)

It's kind of funny. A year ago, I absolutely loathed writing short stories. I couldn't do anything if it wasn't part of a larger whole.

Now, I've realized I'm just the opposite. I can do my best work in a short story (all connected by the same world maybe, but otherwise unrelated) and there is no way I can handle larger projects. I just get too burnt out. This is why I know how Kat and Locke's story ends,  but I'll probably never write it out. It's too much effort to put the thoughts, the abstracts, for that scope of events into definite words.

I'm thinking of getting rid of my "chapter" stuff, because what's the point if I won't finish it? That, and I really don't like the writing from those anymore. It's not tight enough and it would take so long to fix it all...

Idk. I'm just tossing ideas around right now.

But yeah. I absolutely adore short stories now.

Anyone else have anything like this? Where you were adamant about writing/drawing/performing a certain style or genre but then realized you weren't made for it? That your talent lay in something you dismissed?

Commissions?

1 min read
Hi guys! Sorry, I know I haven't been very active this year.

Part of that is stress, part of it is being busy, part of it is just being done with everything.

I'm at college now and I can't find a job. This means I'm thinking about doing written commission stuff. However, I have no idea where to start. Should I base the price by length? By if I know the characters already or not? Rating? Etc. Also how to handle payment stuff?

So I need two things from you all, my wonderful watchers: get me some publicity going once I make an official commissions post AND help me figure out how to get started (maybe point me to others that have done written commissions). Please and thank you!
