Blah

It's the Red X frenzy today, I tell you. What is up with these empty boxes? I have thirty-one messages that I'm going to have to get to later because I can't even SEE them.

Update: Drawing, Painting and that sort of thing . . .
Practice makes perfect . . . and discouragement. In truth, I've half-painted a couple pictures and just given up on them because I didn't like them enough, or there was this thing that didn't look right, or that thing that didn't look right.
But, things get worse before they get better, right?
Right. --;

ANYWAY, the next original thing I upload could take a nice, long time. Or it could be next week. Pfft. And, chances are, I won't like it after two days, that is, if I like it at all to begin with.

Update: Writing
Eh.

Yes, I'm stagnating on just about everything lately. I was this close *holds finger two centimeters apart* to finishing the first draft, when I realized that the climax made my face do this-- .
SO, due to the deep-rooted stuff that makes the climax as as it is, I've come to a grinding halt as I keep diddling down notes to just make everything a little better. I think for the most part, it had a lot to do with the fact the good guys are all strong characters. When I write the good guys, I know exactly how I want to write them. When I got to the bad guys I fumbled around and didn't know what I was doing. So, I'm improving storyline, and really, reaaally trying to make those bad peoples out to what they should be. And I know that should be dismissed when it comes to first draft, but that it was such a dramatic ANTI climax that it just made me sick. It ruins the whole story. Something essential in the nemesis department went real sour, real quick.

And that's all there is to that.

But I'm still heartily looking forward to a rewrite once I get things sorted out, because I them good guys. And hopefully, I'll (?) the bad guys too.

Aaaaand everything else
Layout changed. I really like this one.
