after a week (and a few days after, whoops lmao) of the poll being up, i'm happy to announce...
erikar-year is becoming erikar-weekly!!
thanks for being patient and helping me decide the fate of this blog!! a few more details about the change under the cut for those interested :-)
otherwise, see y'all sometime in this upcomin week!!
just some points to clarify about the blog change!!
• weekly means that at least one prompt will be posted once a week!! it also means if i have the time/energy, there might be more than one a week hehe
• as for which day to expect posts on, there isn't a set one yet!! just gonna be testing the waters for now. if there's a day that's the most consistent, then that's what it'll end up being.
• the prompts won't stop after a year!! this blog will keep goin for as long as i can keep it up. :-)
• most of the rules from the intro post still applies, but i'll probably make a new one to reflect the changes!!
aaand i think that's it for now. if there are any more questions, feel free to ask!! i'll be back with the prompts sometime this week so look forward to that hehe.
and thank you once more for all the support and understanding. i still reel from the fact that my silly impulsive decision to make this blog turned into somethin bigger. making this change doesn't just ensure that i continue to enjoy erikar and makin art for them, it's that i can continue to enjoy running this blog and makin stuff that makes others happy.
i wanna start this ramblings post by thanking you guys once again for all the support you've shown this blog. i've said it before and i'll keep saying it, it really makes me happy that me being crazy over these two goobers and expressing it through art brings other people joy :-)
but as much as i love working on this blog and all, big changes have happened in my life just recently that make it really hard to continue this blog daily, at least for now and the forseeable future (if me delaying posts wasn't an indicator already lmao)
i don't wanna get into the details of it, because i really do want this blog's focus to be on erikar for the most part. but i don't want to leave or end this lil project so soon.
so with that being said, i need your guys' help!!
i want to continue this blog still, but i can't do it right now with the daily prompts. so to keep things sustainable, i've been thinking of a few different options.
i won't expand on them all too much bc i feel this post is long enough already lmao and they're mostly self-explanatory, but they all basically boil down into reformatting the blog!! so here are the options:
option 1: ask blog ==> basically what it says on the tin!! this daily for a year blog turns into an ask blog that lasts for however long i can keep it up lmao. erikar will still be the main focus, but i'd be willing to open up the questions to the rest of the cast and basically anything relating to my post-canon earth c au!!
option 2: weekly instead of daily ==> keeping the prompts, but turning them into weekly instead of daily!! no more 'year' timer on this one.
option 3: prompts whenever ==> no 'year' timer either, but i just. answer or post a prompt whenever at any time. erikar surprise HAHA
the poll will stay open for a week, and i'll be taking a small hiatus in the meantime!! maybe it'll extend depending on what seems to be the most popular option (ex. the ask blog wins, which would require me to plan out more concrete details for my au and a possible storyline for the blog to vaguely follow.)
and before i forget, this doesn't mean any asks/prompts sent before won't be answered!! no matter what ends up being the most popular option, i'll still get to all of them when i get back.
Erikar thinking about how "limiting" the old quadrant system was, and laughing about the ideas of how their relationship would have gone if they had only stayed to one quadrant. (Main focus of the comic could be single panels dedicated to "how'd it go in this one?")
Sorry if this was, er, too descriptive!
DAY 77 ==> exclusive interview with two of earth c's creators!! get the hottest insight into their relationship!!
