Dec. 31st, 2008 02:22 amSo I drew my third page for Overland in a month today.
I know this might sound slackerly and stupid, but my God am I relieved. The one thing that had been really eating at me for the past four months was the complete absence of any inclination to draw. And it wasn't like I didn't want to...but I'd start and just the accompanying drive to continue wouldn't come at all. So I'd have a page of Overland sitting there for weeks and weeks and it'd be like pulling teeth just to get myself to finish it. And even when I finished it there was...nothing. No joy, not sense of accomplishment.
I was terrified.
But slowly, day by day it's been getting better. A lot better. Finishing this last page of Overland was ten times easier and just more fun than the first page I did this month. I'm just...I'm so happy. You don't even know.
In other news-
eto! I got your present! Thank you soooo much!! ;o; The cookies and everything...it's perfect (I was looking for a mini-sketchbook too!). Y'know, I was thinking of maybe coming up to Washington for my Spring Break...we'll see how that goes, eh? :D
Just one more day until I leave for Japan, eeee!
