It's Wednesday again
Bah, humbug to Wednesdays. Now that there's only an hour or so until closing, things are starting to slow down. Thank goodness.
I'm rather surprised at the reception my artwork has received on both SF and DA. I'd almost be inclined to say that it's not worth writing when you can be so popular by doing art. Art is faster, too. I could do a traditional painting every two or three days. Writing a very short story and getting it to where I'd let anyone see it takes more like a week. A novella is a couple of months, a serious novel might be a year or more.
FA is quite a different story, though. To get noticed there, you have to do not just art, but porn, it seems. Oh, there are a few exceptions, but most of them do a fair percentage of erotica as well and their followers take the non-yiff art in along with it. Writing is hopelessly irrelevant on FA, as I've noted before.
In any case, I'm off the edge now. I have several more picture ideas in my head that are going to have to get onto paper to make room in there for writing. Oddly enough and at least so far, I have not been inclined to draw my own characters or scenes from my writing.
