I'm a chicken

I have been very, very busy lately. Between college apps, normal writing, learning how to use the drawing program I found that ACTUALLY WORKS (YAAAAAAY!) and keeping up with schoolwork and friendships, I've had an exhausting few weeks. I'm also trying to work up a writing portfolio for college scholarships, which is frickin' hard. I have about eight different stories I want to write before my last deadline and no time to write them in.

Which is why I'm once again not doing NaNoWriMo this year, even though I said I would.

But that doesn't mean I'm not writing. My goal is to write at least 2,000 words a day, but I'm not going to limit myself to one project. I'm going to work up and edit a whole lot of short stories and essays, as well as hopefully finishing a few longer projects I've started.

I AM starting a new story, a longer project I came up with a while ago. It's definitely new territory for me...and I have ideas for a couple short stories series, which will probably go up on my other blog, so look out for those.

Meanwhile, I am having lots of fun with FireAlpaca, the drawing program I mentioned. Look what I drew my dad for his birthday!

It's Freddy the Pig fan art! 

And here's a cartoon for the school newspaper that unfortunately did not make it in because the school email was being stupid and I couldn't make the deadline.

It was going to be an illustration for an article on typing notes versus writing them.

And THIS is a picture of my fictional character Igor dipping someone else's fictional character Max:



Off-panel: Max's boyfriend thinking "Please don't drop him."

Anyway, hopefully I'll have something for my other blog soon. See ya!
