Most (if not all) of the credit for you guys even getting to see my silly doodles and know me in general is because of the ever-so lovely Lianne.
If it weren't for Lianne, I wouldn't even be on tumblr right now. I'd be on my personal tumblr doing other random things, and none of you would have ever known I existed. When I started watching TVD I went looking for cool blogs to obsess over while I waited for the show to return, that's how I found Lianne.
She had her amazing blog and I was this little shy Anon wanting to know more about the show itself, and wanting to make friends with people who liked the show like I did, and Lianne was the most friendly out of all the blogs I followed. She wasn't questioning why I was on Anon, or bugging me to come off it- or being short with me whatsoever. (because we all know sometimes Anons can bug us.) After seeing how wonderful her blog was, all I wanted to do was make my own and blog about TVD as well.
So I made this blog and she promoted me, and I met a few of you and you were all so welcoming. I was overwhelmed by how friendly you all were, even though not all of you agreed on everything with each other when it came to the show; you were all really just sweet people. I was used to rude Anon's and snarky fights with people on my personal tumblr, not so much being a part of them but witnessing them. That was not the case here.
Lianne had seen a doodle of mine before, and she liked it. I remember asking her if she thought I should upload some TVD related art, and she was almost more excited than I was for me to upload something. So when I uploaded my first drawing and you guys saw it, it seemed as though you guys really enjoyed it. But Lianne changed that 50 followers who liked the drawing by reblogging it on her blog and it blew up. You guys started to follow me and I made friends of my own.
Lianne is also to thank for Carina even noticing my existence, too. She knew I would never have the balls to post a picture to someone who was TVD related, but she knew she could. And when she did, holy hell it scared the shit out of me having that many people on my blog, but it was awesome just the same.
If this is how I can make my future goals happen, I have everything to thank Lianne for. So if for some reason you guys don't follow her, you all should.
Go follow Lianne. RIGHT NOW.
