So...
17 years ago
First of all, hello to the five of you that watch me, minus the few who don't care about this journal. It's nice to speak to you.
Second, I've come to a realization. I'm not going to get any watchers.
This is really okay by me, and I know why. I don't draw, sketch... any kind of visual art you can think of, I cannot do. Stories, sure... but does anyone actually click on those? Pah.
So, the only way to get people to watch me? Commmmmmissions. (To be read as Heath Ledger. If you don't get it, try it.)
I look all around, and what do I see? So many, many, many people whose accounts are rife with gifted and commissioned artwork. It's an odd sort of celebrity, I must imagine. Being known for your actions on SecondLife, Furcadia, various MUD's, or some sort of.... instant messaging. All the while, it's a Fursona that doesn't necessarily reflect you. Admittedly, we all do this to an extent. But to have fans praising artwork done by fans of a character you made up?
...still seems odd. Anyway, I won't be one of those. Can't, really. So hopefully, a single commission from Jijix (huge shout-out to him, by the by, that nobody will hear), might get people to read a story or two.
Rantfully yours,
Ethan K. Wolfe
