you ever think that lan wangji was so desperate to help wei wuxian during his yiling laozu era not just becasue he loved him (although obviously he did love him a lot) but also because he couldn't help his mum when she died all alone in a small house on the outskirts of yunshen buzhichu? because i do. a lot.

hi sol!! i love your art so much <3 do you have any tips for developing a style? i’ve been struggling with mine and i really admire yours!

ps i love how positive you always are you’re an absolute gem <3

OH GOSH you would not BELIEVE how often I get this question and I never have any idea how to answer it!

I've known since I was a kid that I want a soft, eye-pleasing art style. The kind that if you put it in your mouth, it would feel chewy and warm. Does that make sense? I also wanted a more American art style (since anime was so cringe when I was just starting to draw, I tried to stay away from the very cliche anime eyes and body proportions, and that sort of has always stuff with me)

I guess my biggest piece of advice is to consume a LOT of different media and take what you like best out of all of them and start there! I remember tracing a lot of my favorite artist's art to get into the habit of how they draw certain things until I could do it on my own! (Tracing is absolutely fine when you are starting out, but only as a learning tool. Do not post said tracings on any social media platform and try to pass it off as your own)

And also make sure to draw consistently and draw, a lot of the time, for yourself. You don't have to do it everyday, but progress is slow, and sometimes you don't always notice improvement until months or even years later, so make sure to stick with it! I've been drawing for almost 17 years, and it's only been within the past year or so that I am FINALLY confident in my art enough to be proud of it and to like how I draw. Make sure you are patient with yourself, it will come to you eventually. <3

Last Line Challenge

Okay I haven't done one of these since like August because my life has had negative amounts of time to write, much less do anything else, so please forgive me lol I was saving EVERY SINGLE TAG since then to catch up on, but that's like almost six months worth at this point and that is stupidly ridiculous. So if you tagged me and aren't tagged here, I am so very incredibly sorry and I love you and I saw the tag and wanted to reply but like. Time fucked me over so ¯\__(ツ)__/¯

OKAY, WITH THAT LOVELY INTRO! In the past month-ish I have been tagged for this particular challenge by: @crinkle-eyed-boo @kingsofeverything @ladyaj-13 @allwaswell16 @disgruntledkittenface and @evilovesyou !! I know there were more, like I said earlier, and I'm sorry for leaving you off, but yeah. ANYWAY! Because this is my first time in like five months and i've posted something stupid like almost 200k words in that time, I'm going to go ahead and share my last line(s) which just so happen to be A LINE OF DIALOGUE. See how I'm twisting the rules but also still following them? Eh?? hahaha Anyway. Hope the wait was worth it!

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” Harry said between laughs. “Oh my god, they turned out so much worse than we thought. He’s going to kill me when he realizes he almost killed you guys with snickerdoodle rocks!”

LMAOOOOO I personally very much love this and am laughing just thinking about it. So that's a lot of words! THAT MEANS I GET TO TAG A FUCKTON OF YOU! 36 to be exact so LET'S DO THIS BITCHES!

I'll start off by tagging back the six who tagged me and then also tagging: @2tiedships2 @londonfoginacup @sadaveniren @becomeawendybird @jaerie @greenfeelings @so-why-let-your-voice-be-tamed @jacaranda-bloom @louandhazaf @zanniscaramouche @absoloutenonsense @justalarryblog @fallinglikethis @hazzabeeforlou @juliusschmidt @boosbabycakes28 @haztobegood @reminiscingintherain @laynefaire @princelyharry @quelsentiment @homosociallyyours @thestylinsons @beelou @wadey-wilson @uhoh-but-yeah-alright @lightwoodsmagic @loulovehome @mizzhydes and, last but absolutely not least, @parmahamlarrie! of course no pressure if you don't want to do it or don't have time, I obvs get it considering I put this off for five months lmaooooo but I'd love to see what you have if you're willing and able to share!

The other day I realized that I’ve finally started to reach the point where the idea of me ending up with someone in the future seems weirder than me not ending up with anyone and that was such a good feeling.

I’m still chuckling about Susan Sarandon at that Bernie rally trying to shame Elizabeth Warren for being a Republican in the past.

Like, that shit might work with Hillary Clinton cause she was kinda center-lefty but that particular dog doesn’t really hunt when you have Elizabeth Warren and her laundry list of progressive policy proposals.
