I hope everyone has enjoyed or is enjoying their holiday break. I'm hoping to be much more productive this year. I have a better outlook on things, then have had lately, although there are still lots of troubles I have to swim through (mainly economically) but I'm going to try to keep my eyes on my goals.
Which mainly are these things:
- Finish a major novel and-or original short stories.
- Produce and keep up an on going comic story.
I'm also thinking about hosting a small art oc contest in the future here in DA, but I'm still thinking about the prizes. Nothing official yet, but I'm playing with some ideas.
So, let me know what resolutions you have this year and if you're interested in participating in a contest I may hold!

My resolution is to try and be more positive this year. I also want to be more reproductive this time around! I'm probably gonna write a journal more

I hope so too! I'm always trying to look positive and push myself to improve even if it's going at a snail's pace haha. But it is better than stopping. Thank you! I want to get a lot more done this year!! *prays*
Awesome! I'm glad I have your word! I'll keep you posted with these journals on how my planning is going. I'd love to make it as fun and worthwhile as possible!

You're welcome!! I will be rooting for you!!
Sounds good, I will keep a look out for those updates! It's been awhile since I have entered a contest so it's pretty exciting for me,hehe

Saving up to I can host this contest, getting back to drawing and continuing and starting some comics, and hopefully posting some original fiction.

I'll jump in on the contest, depending on when it's held. 
Hope your year goes good, too!

Sure! Perhaps it will be in the summer, I want to make it a legit contest with either some cash prize amount and DA subscriptions (or both) but I can't say anything for certain since I need to organize life right now. I'm trying to create a routine that so I can draw and write regularly. So I can meet whatever deadline I promise to meet (like regular updates for fics and art)
I totally support you on recovery, with as someone with depression, I know it's an on-going battle that never really goes away but it does get better from time to time with support! Good luck!!

Summer's good, I'll be out of highschool and probably will have more time, even with a job and all that. Take all the time you need, it's all good to me.
Yeah, mental illness is a bitch and a half. Helps if you've got a support group of friends and a therapist, which I thankfully and finally god after years of asking. Hopefully the whole ending-of-puberty thing will help with that, too. Good luck with your recovery, depression's no fun for anyone.
Also, idk if you've seen, but I drew Jules again.

Also, thank you! depression sucks haha ;w;

Wanna know what's even better? My bff drew the entire group for me for Christmas. You really gotta check your tumblr notifications on your zerolr account, I tag you in all the posts about them.
That it does, but spring's coming so good things are also coming. When in doubt, we've got Starbucks.

omgg they look amazing!!!!!
I'm hardly on tumblr now, but now that you mention this I'll try to pop by every once and a while and check on them to case these notifications!
Can't fail with coffee ;3

They really do!!
I can PM you here when I update stuff if that's easier for you?
Definitely not.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes! you can either tag me when you post your deviations (like putting my username/icon) or PM me. I'll get those right away! I follow literally hundreds of people on da so i do tend to miss friends like you that I actually talk cuz it's drowned out by the dozens of popular artist deviations that I follow.

All right, I can definitely do that. I need to get more into drawing anyway, so now that school's started up again, I can think about it.

awesome!! I look forward to your arts!!

Thanks! I look forward to seeing more of yours, too!

thank you!! hopefully it will be soon! I'm going to try to get myself organized! I want to start drawing something at least once a week and knock down some things on my "to-draw" list.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's a good idea! How do you plan on dealing with artists' block?

Reading more comics/manga. I''ve trying to get back into reading more again. Somehow that gives me motivation to keep drawing. I tend to slack and not keep up with the manga titles I'm reading (I'm reallyyyyy left behind on several titles including attack on titan, becuase I stopped reading manga all together)
I also download a comic app called webtoons for artist that draw original webcomics. I'm trying to start listening to more vocaloid songs/and other EDM, while I draw, it's good songs that doesn't distract me but instead push me to finish something that requires more detailing.
I"ve decided that Saturday (today) will be my drawing day and start with this "once a week" thing and hopefully it can several times a week. but since i'm really badly disgornaized and all.. baby steps and once a week is good enough for me right now.

Try the webcomic Satan & Me, it's a really good comic that's been going for about four years now. But I think you can catch up!
That's a good way to do it.
