Please don't feed the trolls. I'm tired of going to the notes to read people's thoughts on a post and here comes a troll and you all insist on feeding it!
You talk about 'oh they're derailing the conversation' No, you're derailing the conversation' by feeding the trolls! Block and delete them for the love of all that is good!
Daily Doodles- Day 72- 25/06/24
Another doodle that I decided to finish up. This was inspired by those top-view pictures of sea foam bubbles on the water's surface.
I coloured the whole page using a blue highlighter.

Update on my crochet skirt! All granny squares were completed, blocked AND sewn together! And it looks fantastic!
I bought lining fabric for the skirt, but honestly I don't think it will be needed!
What IS needed now though, is to weave in all those ends ๐ฐ I also need to make the waistband.
The skirt is the width of my hips (9 squares) so I need to gradually cinch in the waist (there's a word for it in crochet, but it's not coming to mind) I also want to crochet around the bottom edge to 'clean up' the hem.
Still a lot of work, but I can't wait to finish and wear it!
So I'm focusing on 'Time Warp' and fleshing out some of the antagonist characters. I realised they were just mean for being mean and it wouldn't make sense why they're targeting the protagonists.
This has me thinking about if I should include their POVs in the story because I wrote a whole page about why one of the characters decided to prank them and how they felt about it.
This story also has supernatural elements working in the background and I'm having fun coming up with different ways it communicates with them.
Once I have all the characters fully formed (to my standards) I'll show you guys some art!
So now that I know how to plan my stories, I'm planning them!
I bought some of those clear folders that you can just slip your papers through to organize everything and I have a folder for each.
I've had many, many, many stories over the years, but these are the ones I've decided to focus on.
Not Another Paranormal Romance
Loved the idea for this one and really want to continue with it. You can read the short story I wrote from this idea here, here and here!
Diary of an Ex-Witch
A recent idea (like a week old or so) Was definitely inspired by reading the Bible and understanding a few things about GOD a bit better.
Time Warp/ Rewind
Name is pending. This is an idea I had when I was 17 and I absolutely HAVE to write this! Especially since I've gotten so many new ideas for it! It will be about two 3rd formers (13 to 14-year-olds) who mysteriously travel back in time to the week before they were cruelly pranked by their peers.
K.I.D.S
This was a story idea from when I was 15, heavily inspired by my favourite series at the time, N.E.R.D.S by Michael Buckley (I still have and read all the books to this day!)
----------------
This story grew in originality as I got older and it went from being about exceptional kid spies (veeeerrrry similar to N.E.R.D.S) to regular kids unintentionally caught up in the secrets and drama of the hidden. I'm still working on organising my thoughts for this one, especially since I plan for it to be a trilogy.
I do plan to work on some short stories, both to share with you and to exercise my writing muscles. I may also share some snippets of writings based on these novel-length ideas. I find that writing shorts featuring your characters are a good way to get to know them.
I drew this fun group in my sketchbook one day and decided to build a story around them. Their names are Harold (Harry), Alice and Marissa, they're 10 years old and are in their 5th year of primary school. They're known for their love of solving puzzles. Harry likes word puzzles, Alice, number and math puzzles and Marissa prefers mechanical (physical) puzzles.
Everyone calls them the Puzzler Bunch, but this name is pending. I think I can come up with something better.
Just a reminder to keep "no idols, no heroes, no gods" mentality. I say this in reference to celebrities and youtubers, etc. I've had this mentality from a very young age. I've only had merch from one creator ever and it was a present. Never put your favorite YouTuber or celebrity on a pedestal, do not idolize them, do not worship them. Over the past month on more recently with some YouTubers and celebrities who many people idolized getting called out for horrible behaviors, I've seen so many people who are "disappointed" and "couldn't believe it." YOU can't believe it, I can. You put these people on pedestals and act as if they are less able to commit atrocious acts or say awful things than other bad people you've come into contact with in your life. They aren't, they are just as able, if not moreso. You don't KNOW them. No matter whose content I'm watching or reading, etc, I never once think that because I deeply enjoy their creation or what they are a part of, it eliminates them from the possibility of being morally wrong or ignorant. I'm not mad at people who have this reaction, being heartbroken, but I simply have learned long ago to not become emotionally invested in creators or celebrities. They are just as bad as real people, they are human. When I say they are human, I'm saying they are just as able to do and say horrible things as people in our own lives are. I'm not surprised by or disappointed in certain information that comes out, because well, I didn't idolize them. It's not surprising to me, because to people in those positions, they are selling you a part of their.personaliy. they are not your friend, they are not people worthy of idolization. You can admire their WORK. But unless you know them personally, even then, do NOT idolize them.

My OC Gabriella from my short story Not Another Paranormal Romance.
I want to write a longer version to fit more with the name. I had in mind this demon pretending to be in love with her, fueling rumors around school while she's trying to expose him.

I'm crocheting a granny square maxi skirt!
If my calculations are correct I need to make 72 of these.
My hip measurement is 36 inches and the length I want is 32.
I divided both by 4 because my squares are 4 x 4 inches.
36 รท 4 = 9 32 รท 4 = 8
8 X 9 = 72
This is going to be a 2 coloured project (still need to get the 2nd colour of yarn) so I'll be dividing the 72 in half. That means I have to make 36 of each colour.
3 down, 33 more to go!
I'm also lining this skirt, but I want to wait until I get the next yarn colour so I can decide on a good colour for it.
I share my art and writing and sometimes I reblog stuff that I like.You can also find my stuff atYouTube, AO3 and FictionPress
