What is the difference between the brain and the mind’s aspects?

That distinction is fuzzy in universe, intentionally, because I think it’s also fuzzy in real life. The best distinction I can give is that the brain is purely physical (which makes the distinction between physical and psychological aspect a bit fuzzy as well), while t…[Read more]

Ooh, this looks interesting. I love your aesthetics!

@theducktator

Yes…. if I can find any.

@stephie

Cool! Glad I was making any sense.

@loopylin

Hey, my family is going up to Moscow in February. Would you be interested in trying to meet?

After a couple weeks of contemplation, the only genre my project seems to fall into is ‘absurdist fiction.’

Me:

It fits, and it’s funny, but it’s so hard to explain to people. I’m just trying to imagine having a conversation with a writer friend. “I’ve got a deep epic fantasy world, how about you?” “I write absurdist fiction. I’m pretty happy…[Read more]

I need to read this, one hundred percent. I’m sorry I haven’t jumped onto this topic right away, school and thesis have been attacking all my cognitive functions.

@rae

Eeeeyyyyyy cool art!!

Cross hatching and stippling look good, but they take sooo long… And if you get impatient, it looks messy.

*offers cake, slowly claps*

@rae

Wow! Yeah, I wouldn’t have guessed that! What is the origin of your last name?

Funny story… my grandma’s maiden name was probably originally said one way, since it’s not pronounced how it looks, but when her mom (or grandma? I can’t remember which) married into the family, she started pronouncing it a different way since she had a lisp. And…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle @keilah-h

*bows dramatically* I’ve been pronouncing your names right! Do I get cake?

@rae

Okay! Neat!

@ellette-giselle

Are we planning another one of these for this Saturday, or what’s the plan? 😉

@rae

I would say it, Eye-suhl, like the Eiffel Tower but with an S instead.

@ellette-giselle

Lolol! Well, then I’m saying it right. XD

@hybridlore

I don’t know where the emphasis is on my name. Everyone just kinda lets it flow without much emphasis. So yeah, not really sure where it is…… lolololol

@rae

Hmm, like Liesl, but without the “L”

@keilah-h

Oh no, I’ve been saying your name wrong too!! 😂 I thought it was Key-la. Where is your name in the Bible?

@ellette-giselle

I think I’m saying your name right? 😅 I know we already had a conversation about this. I feel confident about everything but the “Ette”. I might have the emphasis wrong, but oh well.

The trick to no one saying…[Read more]

@rae

Oh okay, that makes sense. I like that look a lot. I think I have a few books where the artist does cross hatch with a pen and then fills in with watercolor.

Okay, well, I love your realistic type style, if you’re willing to do that. Would you be willing to draw Werner? He’s a young German doctor, dark hair, dark eyes, tall and slender.…[Read more]
