I realize I've been gone for a while, but the simple explanation for it is that I just haven't drawn anything in quite some time, because I was focusing on my stories instead(which I plan on trying to upload here so keep an eye on my profile ). But that's only half of the reason why I was gone. I had two very important exams for which I had to study (a lot... believe me when I say I have never studied more in my life, and I hope I won't have to do it ever again), and then there was prom (I guess it's what americans call senior prom? Cuz in my country we only have one prom and it's in the year we graduate from high school) which was this Friday, 25th, the exams were on 21st and 23rd, so as you can see, I had a lot of tension, anxiety, nervousness etc. all 'conviniently' packed in just one week, and after prom I had a bit of a nervous meltdown, but now I'm fine and I'm back on the track! And since I don't really have anything more to worry about, I hope I'll have time to practice my drawing, because I'm not as good as I'd like to be, and the thing with tracing the outlines, then erasing them and drawing on top... yeah that's getting kind of annoying and it feels like I'm cheating... Then again, drawing never really was my calling, but it would be nice to be able to draw at least some of my characters, so my readers can see what they look like I also have a lot of books to read, some of them being the 5 books from the A Song Of Ice and Fire series, and I'm also planning on buying all of the Harry Potter books, because (don't kill me) I've only read the first three, but since I already have books 2 and 3 in my native language, I'm wondering if I should buy the rest of them in my native language, or just buy the complete set in english, but we'll see I'm also working on my own original book that I'm writing, so I'll need to take some time to add more chapters to it, I mean, if I want to achive my dream of being a published writer before I'm 25, I'll need to seriously work on it I'm also thinking about maybe taking requests for writing one-shot fanfics or original stories, or head canons, well basically one-shot anything xD I'll make sure to inform you if I decide to do it so that you could send your requests (maybe?) I still need to work on my FreNessa story that I'm posting on FFN, because it's been on an incredibly long hiatus, and I do mean long, but really, how can you come up with something great for your female OC after she's already had a romantic dinner with Fred Weasley? I also need to write the beginning of the Naruto fanfic I've been working on... "How can you be working on something that doesn't have a beginning??" you might ask. And I shall answer. Complete chaos reigns in my head and most of the times the ideas for stories that I get are from the middle of the story. Let me try to give a better explanation... After my mind has come up with a charecter and has the main ideas for said character's past, interests and so on, it just starts thinking up ideas from here and there, without really following a straight line of time, or a line of development of events, or whatever you want to call it. So I usually end up having the middle/ending of a story/fanfic, but the beginning is missing, and it's the hardest thing to write But I feel like I can finally sit down and write the beginning of the damn story, so I can finally start uploading it somewhere XD I'll also be doing something I've never done before, for any of my stories/fanfics. I'll be writing character bio's. As in, writing down all the important information about that character, like physical appearence, age, height, etc, interests, important events from the past of the character ('past' being everything that's happened to said character before the beginning of the story), special abilities or superpowers, if the character posesses such, and so on. Well I think it's about time to end this journal entry and finally try to upload my stories Wish me luck :3
