Hello all! 👋🏾 Call me Kyu (pronounced 'Q'). 🌸 I am a creative writer & novice animator in my mid 20s. My biggest dream is to bring my stories to life via animation, whether they are original or fan-made. I made this account hoping to make friends with artists & writers of many genres & formats! 🤗
And if it means anything, I'm a big fan of BTS, kdramas and too many anime series to name (The Apothecary Diaries, My Hero Academia, Demon Slayer, and Dandadan being my current faves lol). I've also studied Korean on & off for like six years, and trying to get back to it to it! 💪🏾😤
Current 2D WIPs (all to be animated & possibly made into light novels 1st):

writing is so funny because i could write nonstop for 9hrs and then hit a block where im like "how do i transition between this moment and the next?" and then i just dont touch it for 6 months
Serious advice tho if this happens, it's likely because you already wrote past the end of the scene and wandered too far from the more logical transition point, and you should go back to the last time the writing felt "unforced" and cut everything after.
You can also just skip the transition. Really good writing can span years in a single sentence, like you can just authoritatively state fact and your reader will go with it.
the thing about being "good with kids" is all it takes is literally just not trying to control and mould them with every interaction. it's just being a normal person and engaging with them through normal interactions like having conversations and playing games. it's just being genuine and friendly and not perceiving them as lumps of wet clay you are there to shape. "oh you're so good with kids" thanks it's because I think they are people
After a quiet fight with stage 4 colorectal cancer (as well as ESRD and other disabilities), my mother passed away yesterday (Monday). The waves of grief hit me differently every day. I'm okay one second, cracking up the next, and crying after that. I'm happy that's she's free and felt like she's sent me signs that she is, but I hate that she's gone and feel overwhelmed by all the changes.
I'm gonna be okay.... I just hate that that this process has only just begun. I wish it was over already.
You don't have to force yourself to bounce back so quickly. I read something recently that said "when you come in from a rainstorm, you don't expect yourself to be dry and warm right away", and it really resonated with me. It's okay to take time to dry off and warm up. Take the time you need to process what happened to you.
Sometimes I wonder if it's even worth moving forward with my plans regarding my stories & animations with everything going on in my household, this country, and even globally. It's all so overwhelming - especially with many urging everyone to stock up on food & water for whatever nonsense is about to take place. But then I think about how music & anime has been keeping me afloat these days. Listening to BTS' new album over & over, rewatching old anime I haven't seen in years, even playing Ms. Pac-Man and cussing out the ghosts have felt like a lifeline during the roughest of days.
So maybe our stories and ideas can be lifelines for other people. Keep writing, keep creating, and don't doubt the importance of your interests & hobbies. All of our creativity is needed right now.
ever since i was a little girl i knew i wanted to deny location sharing and turn off personalized ads and reject all non-essential cookies and not set up siri and face ID
BTS being confirmed on Hot Ones by the interviewer saying “the season finale… it’s gonna be dynamite… get it?” while the comment section is praying for jimin’s lips already 😭💀
My least favorite new politically correct term is "unhoused." Like you can just tell it was created to make liberals feel less icky when talking about homeless people.
I was homeless. I was homeless as a child and as an adult. That shit sucks believe it or not.
The uncertainty. The ever-present grimy feeling from lack of access to running water. Having nothing to your name. The shame you feel is asking your fellow man for the bare minimum. Just so much shame, man.
"Unhoused" is so clinical. A technical term. Sure, its not incorrect, but it doesn't properly convey the emotional and psychological impact homelessness has on you.
I just started recording a song w/ this microphone for the 1st time ever (despite having it for years lol), and now it's really hitting me that I can be done w/ this mixtape soon...
