can I call out of work for reason of "I finally feel like I've found my way into my draft"

in-progress sketch of Malenia and Radahn from Elden Ring cosplaying the music video for "Mesmerizer" by 32ki. Miquella is in the back swinging a pendulum.

omw to create the most niche meme fanart no one asked for

I love bees. But not carnally

God I'm so bad at having social media. What do I even say

last night I had a dream I was being menaced by a bee that kept breaking into my house and in the morning I realized I had fallen asleep w my vibrator in bed w me

crazy how the more often I draw the easier time I have drawing

a digital sketch of Needle Knight Leda from Elden Ring, with the game location of Scadu Altus behind her.

Elden Ring is making me want to draw a background for once in my life which is how you know it deserved to win Game of the Year 2022

I'm trying to reach a point in my life where I can listen to O Fortuna without laughing. I'm never going to hear the rest of Carmina Burana at this rate

Wonder what the terms for male and female cockroaches are. I always think of my males as bull cockroaches, but calling a female cockroach a cow feels off. Sow maybe

bizarre aside from The Mothman Prophecies where John Keel drops "I am an amateur herpetologist and once kept three-fanged cobras in my New York apartment...until my concerned neighbors squealed to the Board of Health"

John Keel is an incredibl(y funny?) human being

an in-progress pen drawing of Miquella from Elden Ring (who has LONG, LONG, INTRICATELY BRAIDED HAIR).

help

I had been obsessed with this most of the book, but when Siona stroked and licked the folds of the flesh hood enshrouding his face until liquid came out,

nearly crashed my car in the boonies of West Virginia thinking about the divinely hermaphroditic nature of Leto II with his vaginal-phallic form and ancestral memories of both sexes

I have the freedom to do that as someone who only draws for fun, I don't have to worry about whether my process is efficient or whether my drawings are skilled. I try to remind myself of that lol

like by being laser-focused in on the act of making lines on a page, refining those lines to be as deliberate and details as I can, and drawing something over and over if I need to, I draw even slower, but at the same time I find it meditative...whether the end product is better or not, idek

I'm reworking how I think about drawing...for months I didn't draw at all bc I had this cloud of "I know I’m not good at it and I take forever to finish anything" hanging over me that made it hard to pick up a pencil at all. But lately I've been focusing on the process rather than the product

A rare cute Abigail Williams fanart from 2019 #FGO #FateGO #art

yes yes Anarchy Rainbow is always allowed

the Dark Souls 3 OST used to also be Christmas music to me, but this year it broke containment

I'm a scrooge...the only Christmas music I'll accept are Aqours's 2 Xmas EPs, Handel's Messiah, and the album The Bells of Dublin by The Chieftans (nostalgia pick)

wow can't believe it's already the 17th and I haven't listened to the Aqours Christmas album yet

Choosing to no longer look at internet gaming drama is like Anthy when she realizes she can just stop being the Rose Bride at the end of RGU

:0 no way

I hate when you get a piece of classical music stuck in your head and don't know what it is. Like what am I supposed to do, google the lyrics

Does anyone else ever just get so excited that video games exist and you're allowed to play them. Like damn how are these cool things real

an image search bar with "muscular thighs female" typed in.

it's for drawing reference I swear

and yet. I would be nothing without my omnipresent sense of guilt goading me on

When I have a day where I don't do anything creative, my brain automatically goes "see this is why you'll never be published. You'll never finish anything because you set a day aside to finally finish Silent Hill 2"
as if editing 3 pages instead would have set me on the fast track to utter success

M. G. Roach mgroach's carrd

I made a carrd with info about my fiction wips and links to zines! It's mostly for the benefit of my friends, and for anyone who happens to follow me on here, because I tend to talk a lot about the fact that I am writing, but not so much WHAT I'm writing :|
