Random Ramblings
16 years ago
Ah, so.. Let's see, where to start?
Well, firstly, seeing the excellent art of people such as H0r3e, Twinkle-sez, Marvin, and a few others, I have realized that I would never, in a million years, be able to produce anything near 1/100ths near as good. Well, that shoots down any ambitions on being an artist.
Of course, I then turn my attention to writings. But, once again, the excellent writing style of one 'Black Dragon' (Different website) makes me realize I have no talent in writing about such subjects.
So I wonder... Is it fair if I just take all this in, without being able to give back to the furry community? The answer I come to is, no. It is not fair. But what can I do? stop enjoying these things? Ha! Insane. Attempt to create art/writings? Ha! Also insane. Well, aside from the fact that I am indeed writing a book, to my regret it has no signs of any Anthropomorphic creatures, or anything similar (Although that might change.). In fact, after over 10 years... it's still on the sixth page. With another book on the 4th page, and yet another on the 1st page.
Oh! And also, a megaman based sprite comic!
So, to wrap this rambling up, I just have to say... I love you. Yes, you. You who have actually listened to my rambling. Be you male, female, herm, or other. I love you. And if you happen to be Male... in the immortal words of Joey from Friends.. "How you doin?"

Making my flashes is 1% of talent and 99% of work - I don't consider myself as an artist, in fact I hardly can draw anything.
So, here are my advices for you:
- find a way to express yourself. Painting, writing, music, poems, sculptures, photos, even programming - find what do you LIKE to do (not necessary to be good at it - it will come with time)
- be patient. It's very easy to get bored with your own work and to abandon it. Don't.
- start with small things. Don't try to write a book. Write a story, even a short one. 10 stories are better than one book... and more probable to be finished.
Also don't feel like being obliged to do something in return. If not speaking of commissions, artists don't expect anything in return.
If I make a flash I want to share it with others and thats it No need to give anything back, unless you feel like creating things for fun
Take care!
Oh Marvin... you're so sweet. Maybe I'll write a poem for you <3<3<3
