hey, all.

it's been forever. like, a year? almost. haha. wow. let's just say I had 9,998 deviations to look at and finally got sick of seeing that number grow. I had to say bye-bye. along with the journals, hot topics, polls, etc. that I was also tired of not looking at.

anyway, it's summer, which means I have some time and will be on here every now and then. I don't know how much art I'll be uploading, because my tablet is acting up, but I do love trades and they give me good reason to sit down and try on a picture. haha. guess my own characters aren't enough inspiration.

also, I'm working on another novel...hopefully this is one that I finish. anyone who would like to read that, message me, I'll see what I can do. I'm at about 15,000 words, 25 pages, that sort of thing. I'm loving it.

college is amazing, you guys. I had a crappy second year if you just look at it in terms of what happened, but I grew so much. speaking of growing, I read the most amazing book: Waking the Dead, by John Eldredge. literally turned everything upside down. and now everything has a little extra...shimmer? I don't know. life is good.

so I'll be commenting here and there on pieces I really like, that sort of thing. it's kind of nice to get back into this community again. don't get me wrong, I love my college friends to death - but some of you guys have watched me grow, which is kind of special.

wow, I'm waxing poetically cheesy. I'm going to go to work now before I get any worse.

to you all.
