Making a small accountability post to make myself actually do what I have been aiming to do for 2024. Mainly because I've managed to weaponise my own procrastination into avoidance behaviour. Which isn't great.
I started this blog a couple of years ago to work up the courage to share my WIPs rather than having them languishing in my google drive.
Last year, I took a massive step (for me) and shared my work with some beta readers, and had really helpful & constructive criticism. Based on that feedback, I've been working on my editing skills and rewriting parts of my WIP to get it to the place where I want it to be.
I'd set myself an arbitrary goal of when I get x number of followers, then I'd make an account on Wattpad and actually upload part I of Memento Mori. I'm now quite close to that random, arbitrary number of followers, and this is where the avoidance behaviour has set in.
So yeah, my making my intentions public, I'm hoping that this will spur me on to meet my own goal, because I feel that if I don't make the next leap soon, I'm never going to move forward as a writer.
(on the subject of heart hands 馃 happy belated strifehart sunday!)

I think if a show gets cancelled they should be legally obligated to post the script for the next season(s) online so that we can AT LEAST KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
Hello there! I love the way you draw faces, specially at fanarts. I have a great difficulty to nail down a real person's face shape, and I've been wondering how do you structure the heads of the characters you draw. Do you use the loomis method?
thanks, i really appreciate that!! i've learned the loomis method in the past, but i dont tend to use it. loomis method is alright for getting a realistic likeness of a person/character, but since i draw a little bit more stylized i approach it more like a caricature? exaggerating specific features that i deem to be the most recognizable.
i pretty much always start with a rectangle or cube shape and go from there. bones is pretty square so i start off pretty square, spock's got a long face so i start more rectangle and make his jaw more angled. anyways hope that makes sense, heres a video of me sketching bones out real quick if that helps any
