WIP masterlist!

(3 drawings in the same chalky lineless style. The first shows a retro kitchen with the Eliam cooking and Adelaide watching from behind. Their faces are cropped out. The second shows a small alcove lighting up a dark brick wall. A winged cat-like creature is making a nest of cloth and other found objects inside it. The third is outside in a bright city filled by a nondescript crowd. The Eliam walks down the street, carrying two full grocery bags. Orange reaches out toward them, grinning.)

Project Intro

(3 drawings in the same chalky lineless style. The first shows Gene, Casper, and Tab all crowding around Saint. The second shows Saint and Tab walking down a city street at night as odd white silhouettes follow them from behind. The third shows the backseat of a car that Saint, Gene, and Casper are all crowded into.)

2022 vs 2024!

[port-hiraeth]

The story of the project I've been prioritizing recently has changed so much that the original ideas that started it are now very much background noise to the actual story. It's still very much a part of the world, but will it appear in the narrative? I've got no clue!

Welcome to Blackwood Manor

A choose-your-own-story kind of game where you can pick your own gender, sexuality, lover(s) and much more.

The Blackwoods are a wealthy noble family in Victorian England, and they seem to have fallen in a streak of dark, unexplainable events. You’re their new Housekeeper— how will you move in this complex scenario? And how will you interact with the four love interests, none other than the mysterious Blackwood Siblings?

It’s up to you!

Meet The Siblings:

Alice/Arlen 🍷 The Eldest

cold • gallant • commanding • unapproachable

A is the eldest child and heir of the Blackwood fortune. They seem to be extremely distant and aloof, although never impolite. The recent loss of their ex spouse certainly doesn’t seem to make them any more approachable. The Family’s reputation is what matters the most to them, and they will go to any lengths to maintain it intact.

Rose/Rowan 🍁 The Rebel

considerate • passionate • charming • cunning

R is what one might describe as a fox made human. Their silver tongue and quick wit make them exceptional at playing games of all kinds. Their tendency for partying and romantic affairs, however, don’t make them a subtle individual in the eyes of the English nobility.

Sabrina/Sebastian 🦋 The Artist

vain • creative • extravagant • sensitive

Renowned in England for their handcrafted and designed capes, they’re an admired yet shadowy figure when it comes to their fame, as their frail health doesn’t allow them to partake in social events. In reality, S shows to have a bit of a complicated and pompous personality, with an obsession with perfection, especially when it comes to themselves.

Helena/Hector ❄️ The Recluse

protective • unpredictable • dangerous • intense

A big mystery of the Blackwood Family. H was only ever seen by people outside the Manor when they were a child, and everybody would describe their looks as angelic. Now that they’re grown, for some reason they refuse to leave their side of the manor, preferring solitude even over the company of their own siblings. One thing is for sure, though: be careful when you do end up meeting them.

Get to know them, choose how to act towards them, and fall in love with one, two… or all of them. All the while, trying to find out what exactly happened to the previous Housekeeper.

what if a bunch of us got together and curated a magazine of our ocs would that be weird or what...

[strangegutz]

The memories have gotten choppy.

I’m thinking of doing commissions again! To start off, I want to just use this simpler style but if it goes well I’ll branch out to my usual way of drawing :D

For prices, I’m thinking the first character would be 25 USD with 20 USD for every additional character

Interested?

I’m not interested/can’t commission right now

I’d commission you, but only for your usual style

I’m interested, but for a different price!

I’m interested!

I wrote the final script for interrobang a year ago before I knew what the full series would be like so there’s a lot of stuff I wanted to change! But most of the lines are already voiced and I want to respect my actors’ time, so it was definitely a unique process trying to change the meaning of a scene when I can only change what one person’s saying. It worked out well, though!

[every-eye-evermore]

I see a lot of creatives (including myself!) frustrated at themselves for not working on their craft enough. Please consider the only reference point you have for a productive day’s work is the one given to you by an incredibly abusive capitalist system and that’s not sustainable for your job, much less your hobbies outside of a job. Please!

[every-eye-evermore]

This is how it works, in my eyes. If you put too much pressure on yourself it’s obviously going to stop being fun very fast… it’s really hard to break the cycle because it’s hard to tell if I need to do do the hobby more, less, or just different. It’s easier if I figure out where I am in the cycle:

it’s supposed to be fun :) please have fun

Enemies to "I accidentally came across you while you were vulnerable and scared and I'm not a total asshole so I tried to help you" to "accidental mutual uncovering of softer sides and vulnerabilities" to "I can't be mean to you anymore, not out of pity but because it would feel weird betraying that brief truce we had" to "Fine I'll make an effort to be nice to you now I guess" to "actually now that we're not actively hating each other you're not so bad I guess" to "i think we're friends but I'm not going to say that because I'm afraid you're not gonna feel the same way" to "oh you also think we're friends? Great" to lovers

[lady-of-the-spirit]

Ngl every time someone adds a comment or tag that says "remove the to lovers part and this is perfect" I'm like. Yeah you're right. Weakest part of the post honestly. Consider it removed.

[lady-of-the-spirit]

Consider this an aroace post now.

How fucking annoying is it when you feel so restless with creative energy but you can’t decide what to do with it and when you finally try to create something it comes out shit so you just give up and sit there being all creatively annoyed and jittery.

[lianabrooks]

1 - Decision Making Fatigue is a thing. --> Make a list of possibilities. --> Use a random number generator to pick something off the list. --> If you hate the idea cross it off and generate a new number. --> Continue until you either find a project or cross off the whole list. --> If you cross off the whole list pick a random short story prompt, write for five minutes, and call it a good work day.

2. Yeah, of course your rough draft sucks. It’s supposed to. --> Let it suck. --> You can fix it in edits. 

3. When you’re stressed you aren’t unbiased about your work. --> Don’t judge your work while your are actively working on it. --> Remember to drink water, take your meds/vitamins, eat something, and get sleep. --> Double-check to make sure the restless creative energy is not displaced emotional worries over something else. If it is, displace with intention and let the worries go into your work. You shouldn’t keep stress in your head, put it on a page, or canvas, or in a carving, or a meal, or something. Get it out and let it go.

4. No work is ever wasted. --> All time spent planning and creating is useful in some way.  --> Failure means you tried, which is good. --> Try again. Fail harder. Fail better. --> Keep going until you like what you’re making.

5. Love yourself enough to allow yourself to not be perfect. --> Seriously.  --> If this is a struggle I highly recommend seeing a doctor or therapist about depression. --> Because you are dang lovable, my friend. You rock. You do great things. I’m proud of you.

@sodaliteskull tagged me for the WIP Anagram game! :)

Rules: Find a sentence in your WIP that starts with each letter of the given word.

I had the word Pentacle and pulled sentences from Interrobang:

Pan down to a small tailor’s shop with an apartment above that the Eliam has claimed as their own.

Even this short time underground made my skin itch.

Now all I can do is wait.

They try to go back to drawing, but Tei is still perched on the corner of the desk.

As if triggered by this, a comet races in from off screen.

Connected to an arm, connected to a person.

Look at me.

Everyone does eventually.
