I'm trying to write again, but again that mental block is there- that overt self-consciousness that truly bad teachers know how to instill.

I struggled a bit with whether to put up some of my attempts or not, feeling vaguely embarrassed as I am. But I remember dA as a real good place to get solid feedback and so on... Any advice and feedback would be appreciated!

Without meaning to I sort of stopped using this account for a whole year and a bit... it looks all different which only serves to add to my confusion. Uh. I can't remember any codes for smileys. I bet they never thought to revamp the emoticon legend too, funky though the layout has become!

Oh well! happy last day of January! Tomorrow I'm going to paint a bit, I think.
