#another major downside of going through artblock for so long is that you accumulate a massive backlog#of things you wanna draw that it becomes genuinely overwhelming lol#and it's difficult not to like freak out that you won't have enough time to get around to it all#even though that would be completely ok like i'm not required to draw every idea i have and if i even only draw one of those things#thats already a win considering how little i drew these past two years#it's just hard to shake of the feeling of needing to make up for that? but that's not necessary idk why i feel pressured like that#i have a lot of weird expectations and perfectionism towards my art that made engaging with this hobby extremely difficult#honestly the reason why i made the artblog is to just deliberately dump unfinished and “bad” art on there#so i can hopefully get over my unproductive expectations and just focus on having fun with art again#i can already kinda feel it working bc when i think of drawing now my problem is not knowing where to start bc there is so much i wanna make#instead of like this dread that it won't be good enough#and that once i pick up my pen and get started i'll just spiral into having an existential crisis again lol#i moved from 'if i can't draw well i'm not worth anything as like a person :(' to#'i have a billion fanart and oc ideas and if I cant draw them all at once i will explode So instead i'm just gonna sit here and do fuck all'#that's progress in my book!!!!!#i'll go check if i have any more old sketches to post and then i'll just work on whatever i feel like rn#i keep overthinking this shit. i need to go with the flow and just draw. I don't need perfectly polished finished pieces#I'm just gonna work on stuff until i get bored with it and then that's the 'finished' piece no matter what it looks like idc!!!#that may seem counterproductive and perhaps a bit lazy? but that's gonna be my mentality going forward#bc i think ironically that's gonna be more productive for me all things considered#sry for the ramble ever since seeing that one post about old vs new art comparisons and polished/clean artstyles#that are uninteresting to look at i've been doing a lot of thinking and reconsidering what i'm doing with my art#many thoughts head full. just needed to get it out of my system

This originally started as a rough sketch to try and figure out how I wanted to draw the Stark children then I blacked out and woke up with this.
Won't be their final designs though, I want to truly work on their outfits which wasn't the case here.
I made two alternative versions because I couldn't choose which one I liked better-

READ ON ROYAL ROAD
The gods are awakening.
Ten years ago, the stars fell on the city of New Babylon.
Molly and Ethan Sparrow barely escaped, saved on that apocalyptic night by their aunt Miriam. They drove for hours through the mists of the wastelands, until the road led somewhere else – a new reality.
Ten years have passed.
Molly still remembers the voice in the sea. It spoke in her dreams the night the stars fell, rising from the ocean’s depths. Something ancient was watching her with colossal red eyes. Now nearly eighteen, the voice calls to her again: the tide is rising, it says.
Ethan is now an up-and-coming journalist. Since their aunt’s death, all he has is his younger sister. But he is still haunted by the memory of a city that doesn’t exist – an impossible megalopolis rising on the shores of an endless sea. No record of it remains. No one believes it was ever there.
But it did. New Babylon endured, and it's calling them back home.
Back to the edge of existence.
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
Divinium: Tehomot is a cosmic post-apocalyptic fantasy epic, told through dual first-person POVs of the Sparrow siblings.
Perfect for fans of fantasy, soft sci-fi, cosmic horror, slow-burn mysteries, romance, and immersive worldbuilding.
Part of the Realms of Kiyum series, which also includes the WIP interactive fiction game The Bar on the Abyss.

───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────
To Those Who Followed Me to the Abyss and Back — Thank You.
This is a love letter to you. First, thank you. Truly. If you’ve followed The Bar on the Abyss, if you've listened to my ramble here for two years, thank you for being here. You didn’t just arrive at the bar. You stayed. You helped me build it.
As I’ve mentioned before, TBOTA unfolds in what is now called 'Realms of Kiyum — a setting I first created a long time ago, for a different story entirely.
That story was buried for a while. Then it started whispering again.
Now, it’s rising.
In the end, I chose to write it as a novel because that’s the shape it demanded.
But let me be absolutely clear: I’m not abandoning The Bar on the Abyss.
Actually, it’s the opposite.
Writing the novel has given me new energy. So these two projects are going to grow together. They echo and mirror one another. Sometimes they clash. That’s the fun of multiverses.
Right now, the plan is this: TBOTA will be the first project I finish. It’s smaller (well, in story, a game is ANYTHING BUT SMALL) and more focused — the first act of a larger story.
Divinium: Tehomoth will take more time. It’s a three-book arc, and beyond Chapters 1 and 2, most of what I’ve written before is now void—wiped clean to make space for what this story is meant to be.
So if you’re here for the game, don’t worry — I’m still in the bar with you.
And if you’re curious about the book, come read the novel. They’re pieces of the same dream.
Thanks for walking with me this far. And truly — there’s still so much more to see.
Esh ❤

I am inconsolable.
Because this is the whole thing, isn't it? Sam Vimes wants to be back in his own present, with his wife and his Watch and his world, but he can't yet. He can't just let this play out and abandon it, because that would mean people died on his watch (heh). And if he made that call... well. He wouldn't be Sam Vimes anymore.
He has to do this. He has to do the job that's in front of him. And I haven't read this book before, so I don't know how it all turns out, and neither does he, anymore, but this integrity, this factory default setting of Sam Vimes to care about people and fight for them... I just get so emotional when Pratchett lays bare his thesis statement or the fundamental essence of his characters... I don't even have an analytical point here I'm just Feeling a Lot

writing a novel is adding a bit of light humour to a conversation, reading it back and realising you've just set up some unconscious foreshadowing that is going to go off in seven chapters
