Holy crap, I deserve to be slapped, I guess. I just lost faith in DA there for a while . . . mass lulls in activity in my inbox led me to believe that I was but a tiny, pointless speck in this great, wild yonder that is the web . . . therefore, I moved to the smaller, more tight knit community of Ygallery for a while, only to find that they have some of the same problems.
Draw fanart = instant love and ass-kissing
Draw original art = ....ok who are you again?
Maybe I'm wrong. Or maybe I'm the only one that sees things that way. Maybe I have other problems. I don't know any art communities. I don't know who to talk to. It's probably the same reason why I wasn't popular in high school. I don't really know the politics. o__o
I'm most concerned about my webcomic, now . .. I'm not begging here, I'm just relaying my feelings on the matter. I put a lot of work into that. I spend hours of every day planning storylines, typing up answers to questions in the forum. I even colored a page the other day. I cherish and cling to every rare visitor who happens bye and says hello.
But I do dream of making that my career one day. I would like to begin steps to making GL more well-known . . . but the thing is, I don't have anyone to tell me how to do it. I have no mentor to beg a wise word from.
This has been a problem for me from the beginning. Everything I've done, I've discovered on my own. I'm just beginning to get a little bit impatient with myself, that's all. I'm impatient that I'm doing all I know how, and it's still not enough to realize my dreams.
Very very frustrating.
Anyway, enough of that. I'm going to start posting again and see what happens. >.> . . .

I think, really, if you've been doing fine so far, you'll do even better in the future. Don't let the frustration get to you.

DA is and has always been fanart based. People are like that because they're seeing something pretty that's familiar to them; they don't really understand that artists like to be popular for their OWN work a lot of the time. That's why you need to keep drilling out pretties. You'll get noticed soon, it's just a matter of time. ^^
And get online so I can teach you the basics of getting yourself known :b

I've noticed your disappearance, honestly... I might not always comment(sometimes I'm checking before skittering out the door), but I always take the time to look. ^_^

Why does everyone play bass nowadays?
Why don't more people take up drumming?
Oh yea, because it takes rythym.
Why don't more people take up vocals?
Oh yea, because it takes talent.
If you like, I'll pimp your webcomic for you too! =^^=
And if you feel like it, you can always note me or comment or something and we can talk on AIM or somethiiiing~! I'm always around!
