2k11: lots of shit happened
Is it normal to have a year that fits so perfectly into a narrative story arc? Well, that’s how my year went. Join me in hearing about my more-entertaining-than-is-comfortable-for-me life.
I don’t remember January. I vaguely remember having problems that instantly seemed minuscule when February 16th rolled around.
This is what happens when you get distracted while deep frying on a...
Reasonably Unscrewed-Up Character ≠ Mary Sue –... →
I’m aware that the term “Mary Sue” is experiencing some definition creep so that aside from meaning “author wish fulfillment character” it’s also come to mean “supercompetent, non-screwed-up main character.” But this seems like critical and linguistic laziness to me — Let “Mary Sue” mean what it’s supposed to mean, and let something else mean that other thing; I vote for “Campbellian Competent,”...

The problem with being a writer is that usually by proxy you are a great big nerd, and the only things you really know/are passionate about are big ol nerdy things
But not all of your characters can be nerds
That’s just not how it works
I mean, sure if you REALLY want to you can write a cast full of snarky, socially awkward individuals who make...

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the worst kind of critique is from the person who lacks even the smallest investment in your success or failure. If people don’t want to help you, their critique will not end up being helpful.

hira536 asked: Looking at Yu+Me again, I have a question just now. How different is the ending you ended up giving the characters from how you originally intended for it to end? If there is any difference, what happened that led to the "derailing" of the plot into what it currently is? (Hopefully, my awkward sentencing is not too awkward for you to understand the gist of what I'm asking)
coelasquid:
I suppose while we’re on the subject of encouragement, praise, and critique, it can be just as important to explain why you feel the positive parts of a piece work as to say why you feel the negative parts should be improved. Praise is given so freely, often as code for “I don’t really care but this makes it sound like I’m paying attention” or ” I want to make you feel better”, that...

littlefroggies replied to your photo: I am an artist.
You look as if that bottle insulted you. Smash it.
N-no! I love it! And it loves me. I give it kisses. With tongues.
Don’t worry, baby. I won’t let scary Amanda trick me into smashing you. Shhhh. It’s okay.

Marissa Gaeta And Citlalic Snell, U.S. Naval Petty... →
A Navy tradition caught up with the repeal of the U.S. military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” rule on Wednesday when two women sailors became the first to share the coveted “first kiss” on the pier after one of them returned from 80 days at sea.
Tears in my eyes right now. I love these little bits of progress.

sailor-shinji asked: I love all your comics :) Yu + Me Dream was my favorite, and I was wondering if there was anywhere I could order a print of it. I tried the store link on the website, but it wouldn't work so I was wondering if there was anywhere else I could get it. Thanks ^_^
