I just thought I'd share my insane hatred for the second chapter of my fanfic.  It's kind of ridiculous.  I want to burn it, but it's on my flash drive and I like my flash drive and I need a cigarette now.

If anyone is stalk-following my fanfic, the second chapter will be up within the next couple of days.

So guys, I did a terrible thing.

www.fanfiction.net/s/8423272/1…

Deviantart doesn't have a fan-fiction section (that I can find, not that I expect one anyway), so I'll just leave this here.

I'm looking for feedback because, frankly, my husband can only give me so much (I think he's getting tired of reading the same draft-plus-a-few-tweaks over and over).

**EDIT:  Hey look, I found the fanfiction category.  Herp derp.

Fanart?

1 min read
Okay so, I totally feel the urge to draw me some fanart.  It's a toss-up between Fem Shep (ME3) or Hero and Page (from Fable 3, WHY COULD I NOT HAVE THIS PAIRING?).  I could come up with more, but those are the two at the top.

Also on my list to draw:

OCs (Merci, Rous, Fuu-who-has-been-renamed, Nanetta)
D&D Stuff (why is there no good picture of a Ghaele out there?)
My daughter (my mother-in-law took some really crappy quality pictures, but the scenario is adorable so I'm going to turn them into paintings)

Now, I have these lists with clear ideas of what to draw, but do I stick to it?  No.  I wind up drawing random faces and then scrapping the whole thing.  xP

Life is life.

So, yes.  I still live.  Let's play catch up time!  :D

I am now married to Sehshomaryu.
I have a lovely little daughter named Emilia and she is one year old.
I have a full time (plus) job working for this state's transit agency.
I have exactly one hour a day to myself.

I feel my age looking through old postings on my page and the deviations in my gallery.  I've come a long way as a person, but not as far as I would like as an artist.  Art has taken a backseat to life, but that urge to be creative is always there.  As I explained to my husband, feeling like I need to create something and not having the time to is like needing to sneeze but you can't.  I find other outlets, though.  I try to be a good wife and mother and cook, so I find ways to be creative in the kitchen (it works out sometimes - for those times that it doesn't, I have frozen pizzas at the ready).  I've come to appreciate the culinary arts as, well, art.  If I think of it, I may post some of those creations up here (tofu lasagna, anyone?).

I also find creative ways to piss off my coworkers, but that might not count.  >.>

Still, visual artistry (drawing, painting, digital-ing) is still my first creative love.  Now that my daughter is a little older and life is going more smoothly, I have been able to focus on art a little bit more.  I take a few moments here and there at work to sketch out ideas that float around in my head.  I have mountains of these little sketches on notepads, post-its, and the back of printed e-mails I no longer need, but I've yet to really finish anything.  I can't force myself to, so I've made a bargain: I'm going to sketch when I can until I feel comfortable with the results again.  I am very rusty, I hate to say.  Much like my Spanish, I haven't flexed my artistic muscles in quite some time, and the works I create show it.  Also like my Spanish, I am brushing up on it again.  Also like my ASL, I'm picking up new things and trying out new techniques (don't ask me how language got involved in this xD).

I always was ambitious.  I'm going to get this art thing down.  Scratch that itch.  All those other cheesy cliches.

With that, I'm going to go stare at a blank screen and make it work.

OUT.
K.

Apparently I'm writing a lot too.  Happens when you can't sleep.  OMGTWOJOURNALENTRIESINTWODAYS?!?!?!?!?

What has the world come to?

So, I'm considering emptying out my gallery.  Quite frankly, I'm embarrassed by some of the older works.  Okay, all of the older works.  I know it's a step in my evolution as an artist, but still.  I hardly call what's in there art.  D:

*is being hard on herself*

So, I'm considering emptying it, or switching to a new account and leaving this one more for trips down memory lane.

What do you guys think (those of you that still live and know I live, that is o.o)?
