#mermay prep

[they-of-clay]

Venting over drawing issues and setting goals for Mermay turns into venting through puns and being reminded that I love my friends.

Just a heads up

This year for Mermay I’m going to follow a button-eyed doll theme, heavily inspired by Coraline. If y’all don’t like that stuff, I would block those tags now, because I’m practicing drawing them a bit ahead of time. I don’t want to freak people out and ik dolls, especially of that kind, can creep people out lol.

That said, if you DO like that stuff, you’ve come to the right place

That beautiful moment when you finish a tough chapter you were working on.

Me seeing the reminder message that Mermay starts next week and I still have like ten chapters to go on my fic due to school slowing me down: *screams*

I have realized that the way I have setup my Mermay story, there will be no true happy ending. I have no idea what that ending will be, but happiness is now solely in the hands of the main characters. And those three are fricking horrible at it.

*writing my Mermay story outline* Okay, so I know writing romance is really hard for me, but I'm stepping out of my comfort zone with this. And there will be second plot line that is more my usual, so it will be okay.

*actually writing the story* How is the romance part the part that is coming easily???
