Okay, so am I really that destructive to conversation? Every time I say something in a topic, it dies.  If ya'll want me to shut up, say so, I don't mind. But I was already at the edge of insanity and this is pulling me in! So either give me a good shove over or tell me you're busy or something!!!  Okay, so that was only a slight mental lapse...  But really. Do we have so little to talk about?  I'll throw in a few more topics to stir up a bit... but this is supposed to be a site meant for word-by-word conversation.[/b] ;D I don't think we've mastered our telepathy skills yet, so some text will have to suffice.  So.As a result... Whatcha' been doin'?  |

As stated in the plushie topic, I'm trying to start on commissions. I've been working hard, to get my art up to par..and I'm trying to get better at sculpting/plushie making.
'Cause yeah..I really need to find a way to make money..and this seems to be my best bet. (since I've had so many people ask for art/shirts, and stuff..)

Heh. Yeah, to make money I'm thinking I'll resort to berry picking and firewood... Either that or I could go into some other things... I'm not sure how this will go. Like, I have multiple ideas for landscaping projects, but everyone's doing that and no one would want to hire a sixteen year old... everyone's doing huckleberry and firewood... Ah, well. I have to go now. Heh. So what is everyone else doing? |

I don't think you posting is the cause of all the thread death.
You're just trying to stir up some action in a slow time, and as a result, all the most recent posts are yours.
Early in my internet forum career, I came to a similar conclusion about the same correlation in another forum, but the cause and effect flows the other way.

Heh. That is good. XD Hehehe. "My Internet forum career." I like it. ;D I've been busy recently, really... Heh. I got my pig home for 4-H, X-C, job-hunting, putting small children in bags and hanging them from doorknobs... Okay, that last one isn't as bad as it sounds. She was asking for it. And yes, I did just make that sound worse... ... ... Also, a person requested that I illustrate a children's book for peanut allergies. That's kinda different. She probably doesn't know my history of bagging children. Does anyone have any suggestions for that? Not the children-bagging part. Mostly in the form of what I should do to cover brand names in that little book. See, I already drew it up, but I wasn't really thinking, and I used brand names, like Reeses, Ritz Bitz, Snickers and Planters Peanuts, with the peanut man wearing the top hat... I really wasn't thinking. |

The TV Tropes Wiki, a vast archive of pop culture trivia and writing advice.
If you go in there, it's likely that you'll start spending a lot of time reading in there.
--A lot of time.

I don't really find it all that interesting, personally. Since I've seen it posted, everywhere..I've probably spent a grand total of 10 minutes on it. >.>;
Yeah..I'm the weird one.

Eh, I'm a writer, and so are most of the people who get hooked on Tropes.
This is essentially a place for writing geeks to geek out about the things that make writing what it is:
Tropes, and the way people react to the various juxtapositions thereof.

I write..I just also happen to have ADD. Nothing really holds my attention, very long..(I probably have 2 dozen unfinished artworks..)

Heh. I like to write. Heh. I just don't think I'm a very good writer so I don't share what I write. When I think someone will read it, I get really nervous and do something wrong to it, as a result... when no one is going to read it, well... I'm a very strange person and so that is kinda shown in the writing. T.T I've had friends read what I wrote up before, and they said they liked it all right, but they also said it sounded like an older person wrote it, in a somewhat disapproving way. Sure, we were both about 14, but chances are that the gap will have gotten worse, since then. I never really thought it was a bad thing, for a book to be like that. I actually tend to prefer books like that, most of the time. But that means that even if I ever wrote something I thought acceptable for someone to read, my peers would never want to read it, and I can only imagine that the younger generation will be less likely to want to. I don't have ADD, but I am always very busy... it's kind of exhausting... XP So... I rarely if ever have any finished artwork. |

I don't write, for other people. I write because it's something I enjoy doing. Sure, I never actually finish anything..but it passes the time. If other people like it, fine. If they don't..so be it.
