Yeah my last entry was getting kind of old so thought I'd do a new one.

So two yays, one I've been here for two years now and another a while back I reached 10k pv so yays again

And now to business, I have lately be wholly uninspired away from RPing and a fanfic I've been working on for sometime, everything else kind of starts and goes nowhere. However I do want to do a few new visual pieces and have some ideas so hopefully while occupied with that my writers muse may return.

Soo yeah I'm working, it's quiet (and I kinda hope it stays this way) and so I thought I write a random useless updatey thing that will probably not interest anybody (probably not even me )

- I've still not started work on new chapters of either of my stories yet (Broken Dawn and Hells Rayne) but I promise I will just as soon as I get a couple of other things out of the way that have been bugging me.

- I need some new ideas for some psychedelic pieces, or collages as I've not done nor submitted any of those in an age.

- I'm planning to write a brother (or sister if you like) to my poem 'Sadist' Being of course titled 'Masochist' because I thought it would be fun It is in the pipeline but nothing down yet till the REAL inspiration hits me.

- On totally unrelated to art news I finally completed Mass Effect on Insanity mode, much jumping around in excitement. Though now it's kind of sucky having to wait nearly a year for the new one to come out.

Yeah that is about all, see random and pointless

Oh additional, if you're a horror writer then check out this contest [link] could be worth an entry, open to both poetry and prose!
