Mariposa Aristeo

@clairec I could draw one for you if you like. However I will be straightforward and say that I am a little uncomfortable with drawing the same character as another person, so.. maybe try someone else? Sorry. I can if you want me to, but I’ll tag a few artsy people and we’ll see if they’re up for it 🙂

@Mariposa I started up an email list last year, and I can confirm that the biggest incentive that got people signing up was having a cool giveaway. They had to sign up to enter the giveaway.

As for content, make sure there’s pictures. Aesthetic photos/photos of life/random pictures you’ve taken. They don’t have to be good quality, because…[Read more]

@mariposa this is perfect timing, because I’m basically at the same spot as you trying to set up an email list! I’m probably going to give a free collection of poems, or a short story to my subscribers. Neither is written, so I should get  working on that. 😉

What I would recommend for you…since I know you’re an artist…and I would LOVE to…[Read more]

@mariposa, @christi-eaton @ethryndal @graciegirl @itisastarrynight @sage-g @cloudy @i-j-anderson. Sorry, only artists I can think of! I know there’s more of you out there, though, so my apologies

@mariposa I just realized your name means butterfly in Spanish! That’s so cool. Idek why it took me so long to figure it out. 😉 Well, I think your hair looks super great short. It suits you perfectly. 🙂 I haven’t had much time to make jewelry lately either. *whispers* Writing has consumed my life.

Yes, your blog looks great. And tell Aberdeen…[Read more]

@skredder @dekreel @radically-surrendered Thank you for your advice, friends!

@mariposa Yeah, that just came to me this morning when I thought about the title, that it reminded me of the Civil War a bit too. I’ll keep working on other title options. Any ideas? It’s probably hard to think of any now since the plot is non-existent at the moment.

I’m adding a #6 idea everybody! I just got this idea tonight actually, so lemme know if it’s cliche or…[Read more]

All of those are awesome! @mariposa @cloudy @that_writer_girl_99

@jenwriter17 Definitely definitely Robot Wars.  @mariposa How dare you beat me at recommending them when I read them at least five years before you did? 🙂

They are really very well-written in every way.  Every time I see that they’re set in 2040 I wonder how much Sigmund Brouwer has correctly predicted – and how soon we’ll find out…

@radically-surrendered, yes, I think he does become a Christian, or close to it in the book. And his wife actually died a long time before Christie came in childbirth. So that whole element isn’t there.

@mariposa Nice to meet both of you! I love making earrings, and I make cards…sometimes. I love to read, and play the piano. And I love doing…[Read more]

@mariposa Okay, I’ll check that one out too. 😉

Heloooooo! Does anyone have any sci-fi book recommendations? I don’t think I own one sci-fi book and there’s an empty space on my………oh, wait…….well, I just wanna try some sci-fi! 😊

@mariposa @daeus @dragon-snapper @skredder @radically-surrendered @sam-kowal Wow, #3 and #4 seem to be stealing the show! Thanks for your votes guys 😉

@mariposa Awesome!

@that_writer_girl_99 That is a very thoughtful gift! How shall I melt it? Hehe. *melts chair, but this time because she’s so happy*

@radically-surrendered *eats all flavors of ice cream* I love them all, but vanilla and raspberry are my favorites.

@notawriter *eats more ice cream*

@dekreel Um… Lots of writing. I’m bored without writing. XD…[Read more]

@mariposa  Oooh…intriguing!

@jessi-rae and @mariposa
I use unsplash for all of my images, and the quality there is amazing. And they’re royalty free.

@mariposa Um, it kind of depends on what genre you like…

You’ve got mostly Westerns and Sit-Coms/Family-Comedies in your list.  Roy Rogers is definitely my favorite western star.  Almost anything by him is good.  But you’ve probably seen him already.  Another thing I like about him is that later he and Dale Evans became Christians and would alw…[Read more]
