Scribbling nonsense all across the board like jaguars leaping from trees of leather bodices encasing aged withered corpses whose eyes dazzle with the light of one million and three silver satellites flying over Los Angeles hiding illegal immigrants from Irish potato farms built atop the golden ruins of El Dorado filled with demonic Ewoks hurling tremendous tankards of tons of Tylenol at the panda bear ninjas that hide around every corner of the magic square building trying desperately to pull up its skirt and set roots on another cubic square inch of the board upon which I am scribbling nonsense.
Firstly I want to thank everyone who responded to the previous journal, it means a lot to me to know that I have such dedicated followers, I just have a hard time thinking of individual responses to comments most of the time and then social anxiety starts getting in the way.
The main issue at hand this time though is regarding content I post on FA. I'm sure you've all noticed by now that I am posting drastically less writing than usually, which as stated before is because I generally have been struggling to muster motivation to do so amid college work and generally being too much of a lazy fuckwad. The other part of this though lies in the fact that I have been spending a lot more time lately working on art than writing, especially now that I've gotten into the habit of inking things in addition to just plain coloring. However, the vast majority of this ends up not showing up here for a long time, if ever, because of certain self-imposed limitations that I have placed upon myself. I absolutely abhor the notion of posting and thereby gaining popularity from any form of content that doesn't represent my own work in some form, and here on FA I typically prefer that everything I upload features some amount of writing, which is why I always try to have little short snippets to go up with any image I post. At this point, however, I'm beginning to consider that with the sheer amount of coloring I'm doing and all the time I'm sinking into it, I ought to be having something to show people what I've been up to, and there's too much of a backlog for me to come up with a snippet for every single image.
Before anyone suggests, I would prefer not to make a separate account wholly dedicated to coloring, not only do I feel that it would do no good to split up my followers like that but I also am quite simply very bad when it comes to managing multiple accounts, I tend to very easily forget about them and it could very easily end up that one of them will end up becoming lost - and I am especially wary of the possibility that it could very well end up this is the one that gets forgotten.

I think posting some of the stuff you've colored would be a good show of what people would get if they want you to color something.

I think you should consider uploading that art, it is not like we can critic it since not many of us even know how to draw. Also, try to take a walk or a jog every now and then, it helps boosting creativity and motivation.
