as long as I can still make art and stories.
Updates to the Lightlice Story
Hey, everyone. It’s been a hot minute, hasn’t it? Something major has occurred in my life this past week, and since it relates to my DeviantART origins, it’s only fair that I post it here. But first, I’ll write a little summary to accentuate the news. In 2010 I joined DeviantART with a love of, well, art. And Sonic the Hedgehog/Sonaze. I was blown away by the support and friendships I made along the way…sure wish it was still that way nowadays but I digress. One of the friendly users, LightningHedgehog01, had something nice to say about my art and stories. I took a look at his profile and was pleasantly surprised to find a myriad of similar interests; most notably rock music and Sonaze. Needless to say, we occasionally dropped feedback on each other’s art for a bit. Eventually, however, it got a little rocky on Lightning’s side. He was going through some tough times regarding an abusive ex-girlfriend, and…things were really heavy. I’ve never been an expert at comfort or advice
Reflection and Updates
I honestly don't really know what to title this. But I wanted to write down a few things to get my thoughts out. Recently, I've been going back and rereading my stories. I wasn't just doing this, though. I was also going back and checking up on my old friends. I just want everyone to know I haven't abandoned dA at all, I still come back and check it occasionally to see if I have any messages. I never do, but I still check. I am not leaving this website for sentimental reasons. I met my husband on here and made a lot of friends. Not to mention people would be crushed if I deleted the Sonaze stuff. I'm still keeping them there. Though I don't l
Apologies to Everyone
I'm not on DeviantART much anymore, and am out of the Sonic/Sonaze fandom. Because of this, mixed with terrible self-confidence, I have gotten rid of a lot of pictures, drawings, and stories that people loved. I have received many comments and messages asking why I took everything down. I say it's because I'm out of the Sonic fandom, or because I feel like my art can't compete with anything else, but in the grand scheme of things those are just excuses. Me taking everything down was selfish, I'm not going to deny that. Just because I am a major self-cynic with my art, just because I don't like Sonic anymore, doesn't mean I need to take it awa
I'm On Other Platforms
I'm sorry I'm not on this website much anymore. Although to be fair, it seems as though nobody else is either lol. To be honest though, I don't draw as much anymore. I do write still, but it's Xenoblade stories...but nobody is interested in that ^^; When I DO draw or write, I just put it on my Facebook page. Speaking of my Facebook page, I would like to link the places where you will find me the most. I've been focused on YouTube more lately.
I'm running three channels currently:

I wish you could change your username with just the one day thing but I can see why you can't...it would just be a flood of people changing them.
I love having my membership though...back in December 2012 I bought a year and got a year free for a Christmas gift. That's pretty much the only reason I continue to get it is because it's a Christmas gift XD
My stuff isn't good enough for commissions either, but don't tell yourself that. Neither of us should. It's not about whether it's good enough or not...the people that make a ton of money that way are just super popular as far as their style and people who know their art. Besides it's not like you aren't earning money you're just putting it towards something way more important. Perhaps someday you can afford that membership =3
