What's next.
a week ago
September rapidly approaches. And we're nearing the annual, traditional 'embers, 'tobers, 'oweens and 'mas's.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, it's all those monthly art themes like hypnovember and such. The stuff that will really stretch you thin if you want to catch them all... Anyway, things are changing when it comes to how I will run these month things. instead of it being: achieve all on the list, it's going to be what I aim to do but might not accomplish everything.
Why? Because it takes a lot out of me to work on things. razor thin schedules, approval chasing, and failing to appease everyone and everything was why I decided to take a break earlier. In truth, initially I wasn't planning on coming back. So in returning, I've chosen to do things differently. I'm done actively catering for others. I had my chance to make it, took it, and ultimately failed. So I don't really care if you like what I'm doing or not. There's no longer anything at stake.
Anyway, enough of that. Here's what I'm thinking of doing for September something I call... Loretember! It sounded cooler in my head.
Last year, we had 'Hextember', Well, this year we have Loretember. I think I figured out what was missing in my craft. Pretty much everything I've built up on was made with the spirit of testing the limits, pushing the boundaries and doing the previously impossible. Look, I'm just a loser with a drawing tablet. But I'm a loser who decided to prove herself wrong and taught herself how to 'draw' despite however flawed that might be. Pushing the bar is how come I'm here.
And that's why for September, I'll be focusing on writing and worldbuilding. It's time to push the bar when it comes to writing. I have a 'closed' species I want to develop and build, plus I have extra lore for a new character to put together as part of my pinewood mills worldbuilding stuff. So yeah, September is oops all writing for the most part. But expect some pics as I continue to catch up.
Edit: Can't be bothered! lol!
