Deviation Actions
Tomorrow is officially the first day of the new term for me. The weather has been unusually icy lately, so there's a small chance of the campus being closed tomorrow, but according to current weather and the current forecast, everything should be fine. I'm both dreading and looking forward to going back. Dreading because it means I have to be disciplined on my sleeping again and will have to get up early, but looking forward because I really really love my classes.
So, I'll be even LESS active here than I was over break for the next few months, but I have some new ideas for art, and I'm trying out a couple new programs as well for digital art. Hopefully I'll have a few things to post here and there.
Drakmanka awaaayy!

Another Update
As per my last update, I've been trying to be more active on here. That said, obviously I haven't done a lot of posting. I have a drawing I'm working on, but I haven't had much creative motivation lately. Same thing goes with my stories, though I'm starting to feel the writing itch building again finally. In exciting news though, I have a new job! While not exactly what I wanted, it's pretty close! I am a Technical Writer at Shimadzu US Manufacturing now. It's about a 5 minute drive from my house, which beats the 45 minute drive to Intel by a looonnnggg shot. The job also involves a lot more sitting and nowhere near as much fast-walking constantly. Also, no bunny suits. I've only been here a little over two weeks, but I really like it. The writing team is very friendly and welcoming, and there is an atmosphere of "no dumb questions, only stupid decisions that could have been avoided by asking questions" that makes being the newcomer a lot less intimidating. While it's not precisely
Life Update
I haven't been terribly active (again) here, though I'm (once again) trying to be more active. The "new" DeviantART still kind of sucks, but it's one of the very few websites that I actually have friends on so I'm loathe to leave it. Plus, I still prefer the layout here over any of the other art sharing websites out there. I also haven't been doing much in the way of drawing. My most recent upload was roughly six months in the making, wherein I would spend maybe five to ten minutes poking at it before putting it down again sometimes for days or even weeks. I have, however, been doing a lot of writing. I am working on a complete overhaul and new draft of Rats and am going into this one with the express purpose of publishing it. We'll see how well that goes, but that's the plan. My ultimate goal now for my life in general is to become a professional writer. Ideally I want to write novels and get them published, and make enough to live on doing that. I don't want to get rich or become
Yes. I still exist
It's been quite a while since I've posted any updates (or art), so I figured it's high time I post SOMETHING. I've been trying to stay active here with varying degrees of success. I'm still working at Intel (essential worker yaaaaaayyyy...) and have been so far staying safe during the pandemic. I must admit some of my interest in dA has waned with the site changes. I'm rolling with them for the most part but a lot of them really are annoying and put a damper on my enjoyment of browsing here. I haven't been doing much in the art or writing department lately. Trying to get back into writing but for the most part what I'm working on probably won't get posted here as I'm hoping to publish it someday. A few months ago I completed the second draft for my big writing project that will be a full-length novel and possibly the first book in a trilogy. My sister is editing it for me and then I'll write what will (hopefully) be the final draft. I haven't got a lot of extra to add here. So many of
