so how can i doubt the resurrection?

aran. they/them. trying to write and do art

[vulturetime]

for about the fiftieth time, i'm getting back into writeblr, but for realises, i promise. call me aran, and this is my writing (and art) sideblog (my main is @isanyonetoknow).

what i write: really geared toward sff! i love multiverse, time travel, alternate dimension stories, but i also have some more classic fantasy wips!

my wips are numerous and time limited, but three wips i'm currently working on are to win a prince (a knight goes on a quest to be able to marry their best friend, but along the way, the past is dredged up and they realized that they can never return the same), in the name of a capitalized lord (in a world where reigning lords are gods, becoming a saint is both an honor and a fate worse than death. on the run, a mail carrier ends up in a sealed off lorddom and a even more mysterious--and perhaps sinister---lord), and the house creation, the house indifferent (short story/novella following a person who has lived all their life in an ever changing house and who starts to unravel the mysteries surrounding the only other two people there).

what i draw: mainly ocs but i'm currently planning on doing more art studies to #ImproveMyArt. if you're a fellow writeblr who draws, lm know!

what i like to read: SFF, surrealism, horror, mystery, literary fiction... if the world is strange and not like ours in any way whatsover, or the story centers the investigation of characters' psyches, i'm all for it!

hmu if you write anything like these genres and please spread the word! would love to become more active in the writeblr community again :)

Download: Adobe Photoshop 2025 (v26.5) / Windows

New version here!

I come bearing the gift of piracy as an early Easter present! Welcome to the most recent (at the time of writing) version of Adobe Photoshop, which was released on March 27th of 2025. As per usual, have a peek at the note below, as it's there to help avoid the most common issue.

Authenticity popup? In case you get a message that says Photoshop needs to be licensed, or it will uninstall itself otherwise, please have a look at this fix! (Always uninstall previous Photoshop installations prior to installing a new one)

Step 1: Download the file from my Mega.nz Step 2: When done downloading, unzip it (Windows can do it for you, but I personally use a program called 7ZIP) anywhere on your PC, even your desktop works fine, and yes, you can delete it when you're done with all of these steps. Step 3: Go into the unzipped folder, click 'Setup', and Photoshop's usual installation window will pop up. Install it as per your preferences (if you aren’t too tech-savvy, don’t worry, you can leave the default installation options as they are and all will be fine). Step 4: Hit 'Launch', and well— enjoy your copy of Photoshop! (Step 5: I would absolutely love you if you could spare a reblog of this post, which is not even for my own sake, but for anyone else who might be looking to obtain a copy of Photoshop!)

If in the unlikely event that you do run into any sort of issue of any kind, my DMs and askbox are always here for you, so don’t be shy, I promise I’ll welcome you with chocolate and fruit.

While I don’t request for anything in return outside of a like if this helped you (or ideally, a reblog so that others can find this), I was asked in the past whether I had a Ko-fi, so I set one up back in the day. It’s not required at all, but it’s always appreciated. 🤍

they call me the struggler, on account of the struggles

[vulturetime]

i forgot that any time i'm drawing i hate drawing. which makes completing this rather difficult

[vulturetime]

fur still gives me so much trouble :/

[vulturetime]

oh no! Came up with the worlds worst found family group

[vulturetime]

other tidbits from the wip that will not be written:

sister has the weird half bowl cut hairstyle because older brother is the one who cuts it. he doesn't trust anyone with his little sister so he's in charge of the haircutting. which, because he was a child when he first started taking care of her, meant that the only haircut he could do passably was a literal bowl cut. he just left the hair in the back intact because she wanted long hair.

both the brother and the millionaire best friend are maladjusted as fuck :thumbsup: they're toxic4toxic, you can say, except they don't get into a relationship until probably the end of the story, and then it gets worse.

both the brother and millionaire best friend have trauma obviously. because how can they not.

millionaire best friend can just be a fucked up bruce wayne or something. parents were killed in front of him, he swore revenge, but he doesn't dress in a batsuit. he's just Sad and Haunted and No Woman Understands Him (neither does any man but you get the idea)

brother's family can be something out of a soap opera. the parents were from opposing sides of the mob and escaped to find True Love(TM). except idk they're still fucked up people and brother spent the first 8 years of his life deciding they sucked, so when his sister was born, he was like yeah nah, this baby is mine. the parents become distant since they're trying to escape notice of the mob who is pissed at them, but the mob catches up with them and kills them. brother is now raising little sister legally and the mob has no idea that the Traitors had children.

the poor lesbian friend is literally normal.

or is she.

i have so much other stuff to do but i was possessed. so behold. the roughest sketches ever.

[birdlord5000]

been reading a lot of haunted/sentient house books in the past couple years, and i've encountered 3 main types of narrative: 1) the house loves you and that's a good thing 2) the house loves you and that's a bad thing and 3) the house hates you and that's a bad thing. this leaves a gap for a potential fourth type of story-- the house hates you and that's a good thing. excited to see if hauntologists delve into this quadrant and what it looks like if they do

[halfbit]

favorite thing about my posts only blowing up when they're replying to someone else is i truly can just have everything out of my hands. i came, i infodumped, i left. now its everyone else's problem </3

[halfbit]

i do not understand? why do the ones i have blessed scorn me so? surely they must be grateful for all that i have bestowed them :/

in honor of the fact that for some reason, I thought blade runner had vampires in it, my next wip will be a post apocalyptic world that is infested with both androids and vampires

( ALPHA READERS )

for in the absence of myth on a long term basis.

messy, informal, but, i am currently planning to post a wip serially and am in need of alpha readers to alpha read. things.

important; i am an unmotivated pantser, i am currently finishing chapter one, i did plan on writing a number of chapters before getting help at the beginning of the year which obviously did not happen, it would be great if we could communicate via discord, encouragement really helps me write, myth is heavily centred around death and grief, i don't have any plans on it being paced well.

all alpha readers, temporary or long term would be appreciated. please contact me via dms.

[careful-fear]

realising this sounds like a bad deal, which it is. but okay, i need a lot of motivation and a lot more confidence in my writing. i have sat down multiple times with deadlines and said i am going to write a book, and then did everything but write a book. so, instant gratification? check. the crushing weight of expectation and a schedule? check.

[halfbit]

cal has beautiful writing btw, i highly recommend giving them a shot if you like introspective guilty explorations in love, horror and mourning

[incognitopolls]

If an artist/writer/creative person reblogs or writes a post complaining about reblog ratios, does that affect your reblogging behavior?

Yes, I am more likely to reblog in general

Yes, I'm more likely to reblog SPECIFICALLY that person's posts

No, it doesn't affect my behavior

I'm LESS likely to reblog from that person specifically

I'm LESS likely to reblog in general

anyone got tips on dealing with non job related burnout? my attempts to search the internet only provide job-related advice 😔

[halfbit]

i've heard some advice to do the thing intentionally bad. depending on how deep the burnout is sometimes if i do something similar but that isnt the exact task that helps me reset (eg: i want to draw, but i cant, so i animate or do 3d modelling instead) and when nothing else works, just take the time to rest and try to recharge your creativity by engaging with your favorite media or something you've had your eye on

[vulturetime]

idk why this always happens when im reading academic literature but anyways. idea for a graphic novel/comic that i wanna do at some point: it's the classic superhero canon, except as time goes on, the main character starts to realize that all his companions are being switched out for different versions of the same kinds of characters and he's supposed to roll with it. has been rolling with it. he sees the same villains time and time again and he doesn't know physically how they can still be here. why he's the same age. why the city is still standing. he realizes he's in a story and there's gonna be some really fun panels when he physically tries to break out of the page.
