My RL friend started writing a gay fantasy novel in her spare time and told me all about it, so I felt empowered to tell her about Astra. Anyway, she started reading it and I'm like SWEATS..... OK ACTUALLY MAYBE THIS WAS A MISTAKE,,,,,,,,,,,,, (I have no idea what she thinks of it)

Dumb gaming localization concerns: They censored dialogue about dating an 11 year old or some shit
Actually important gaming localization concerns: They stopped calling the soil "loamy"

LRP: If you don't know what else to say, you can always tell people your sincere reactions! I love telling artists (and other creatives) that their work made me gasp out loud when I saw it, etc. (as applicable).

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.

I'm lucky I don't have a big readership or I'd probably have to deal with people being like "hey isn't Solis/River's deal a little bit problematique perhaps" and like, maybe it is depending on how you slice it, but absolutely no one in Night Divine is completely normal and well-adjusted.

I think making and sharing things is part of the mortifying ordeal of being know, and it can be embarrassing! But you know what, I am going to be embarrassing and make my little Astra info post on Tumblr and that's fine.

You have no idea how many times I've been like "Oh, noted (:" and then deliberately forgotten a comic/book/whatever recc because what I was told is "it's good + gay!"

ok

"Good" is subjective and meaningless in this context. What specifically made you like it. I am not going to bother otherwise.

What do people typically want from an intro post on a longform piece of media? I have a long intro post for Astra, but I want to make a short one, too. What would you like to know as a quick point of review if you knew (or currently know) nothing about it? :0

I HAVEN'T POSTED A SIDE FIC SINCE AUGUST DESPITE HAVING 5000 WIPS???? oh my god I need to fix that

I was feeling bummed out that I probably won't be finished Astra before the end of this year because I changed where the ending point is, but then I remembered this is a longform narrative with 200k+ words and I hadn't attempted a 5+ chapter story since high school. I should be nicer to myself.

That said, if you're a mutual or I follow you, you are NOT a rando and you are incredibly welcome to pop up and be like "wow I would love to draw [insert thing you would love drawing] for you, Sage" and then I can talk to you about giving you currency.

I hope everyone can remember your art is more than the numbers it gets. The internet is not as kind to art as it was a decade ago. I hope everyone can keep creating even if it's just for themselves.
