Am I excited? That's a very complicated question. On the one hand, THREE WHOLE WEEKS. Three whole weeks to focus on my art and writing projects. However three whole weeks is a drop in the ocean when you consider that I have a bunch of OCs to draw, two 100 theme challenges I want to do, and a smattering of other fanart that's nor part of the TCs. Then I have 20(ish) stories to work on. Yeah, 20. A friend told me I need a scribe. And we aren't talking short stories. Then I also have a blog with a (very) small following where I review anime and manga from my perspective as a Christian. So yeah, THREE WHOLE WEEKS!! Not actually that much time. Then I go back to school. Not even gonna talk about that now, because I don't want to think about what that schedule looks like. >.<
On the other hand, it's almost Christmas and I have a nice who will be arrive in a week or so!! Plus I'll get to spend the holidays with my sister and brother-in-law and his family, the rest of my immediate family, my grandparents, and some of the aunts, uncles and cousins in a giant beach house in Virginia. While I'm going to miss the snow (IF we actually get any), it's gonna be fun.
So my feelings about Christmas break are mixed.
Some of you may well have thought I:
1-Died
2-Stopped using DA
3-Decided to use it only for collecting art in my favs
4-Forgot about DA, which is a bit different from #2

Well, I have been rather busy and haven't had anything to post. I haven't even bothered to check my WATCH messages more then once a week or so. However, I have almost finished a piece of Tales of Symphonia fanart (from one of those 100TCs) and will post as soon as I can get it scanned. I also have another piece of original art that's almost done, and looking very nice. I also am working on the beginning of a fanfic telling ToS from Kratos' point of view. Note: I recommend that if you intend to play this game, hold off on reading it. If you don't mind some major spoilers, don't intend to play the game or have already played it, then I hope you enjoy it!
So I hope to at least be able to post the original art and a bit of the fanfic before the new year, but don't hold your breath.
