sorry about the quality. I thought the camera would take a better photo - but I think its just hard to pick up on camera because I use a H pencil led.
yeh, I actually have been walking to the places where I set this comic to draw them. it seemed very useful when I was drawing our uni house for Moth Eyes. I need a better visual memory bank for backgrounds. (and I’d like my comics to have more convincing settings than they used to - because a badly drawn background probably pulls people straight out of reading)
its nice doing so much drawing outside. I think its making me appreciate things I’d not even noticed before. I was a bit worried it would make me remember when I used to have a lot of friends in cov who I don’t really have contact with anymore - but I’m actually much more emotionally stable than I was a year ago. I was having a complete breakdown this time last year - that I didn’t think I’d ever get over.
I feel like I have a better understanding of my situation and a couple of plans of how to keep it under control. although … my subconscious might not agree with that statement. my sister said I was talking loudly in my sleep which I don’t remember any of. she was worried I was having another night terror. I do remember a pretty horrible dream though. (and I did have a miniature night terror after watching Torchwood at about 11pm last week)
its weird. I often remember dreams and things - and I’ve had people say they’re jealous. but I think the whole thing makes me feel sort of uncomfortable. probably because I have more dreams when I’m stressed. but also because people tell me so many stories of sleep talking which I’m completely unaware I did.
awh well, I’m glad that as far as I can tell at the moment its not a sign of any other more serious mental health problems. (even if it would be nice to be relaxed when I go to sleep and wake up feeling more refreshed than I do at the moment)
not that anyone reading this really cares about the Mercury prize - but Ghostpoet from Coventry is on the list. :)
