i made some custom brushes for PaintToolSAI ver.2 and put them up for grabs 👀 any sai2 mains?

if you like what you see and want to try these for yourself, feel free to chuck $5 at me on either my ko-fi shop or gumroad! enjoy!

(procreate or CSP user instead? i have other brushes for both on my gumroad as well)

Can you imagine that buying a iPad and an ApplePen and Procreate would require me to spend at least an entire month at minimum wage for them ?

As we begin the month of October and many of the prompt fest such as Inktober, Kinktober, Whumptober, Flufftober, Podfic Fest, and all the others that will bring new content, a friendly hint:

Do. Not. Do. This.

Reposting artwork, fic, podfics, whatever without permission or credit is stealing. It’s also just a shitty thing to do at all times but especially right now in today’s climate with AI. I know it’s sad to lose content you get comfort from but this is not the answer. All it’s going to do is drive creators away.

We share our creations with love. Please don’t be an entitled asshole in return.

You know, when you create a culture (or makes derivatives/dig further into other created cultures), it isn't cruel to dig into funerary practices.

You want to write a part where a member of the community dies and receives funerary practices ? Just because you want to expand further into the culture? Then go for it!

Death is a strong part of every single cultures. There are so many funerary rites, going from burials to incinerations.

So looking further into such an important part of life? That is perfectly normal to do and to want to do.

what element writer are you?

water writer

just like water, you carry your readers in a new world, and they just can’t do anything but follow. your poetic writing allures the readers in with beautiful words, just for them to find themselves on the deepest oceans floors, where you make them taste pain in its sweetest form. water writers are the gentlest liars, they show the readers a small stream, and no one can see the waterfall at the end. if you were a tag, you would definitely be ‘Everything is Beautiful But Everything Hurts’. cliffhangers are one of your strong points that, mixed with your incredible versatility, make you a great writer. your stories have a deep meaning, and never miss to leave traces on your readers hearts. you don’t limit yourself, you like to explore the deepest parts in the human soul, and that’s why readers can sometimes find MCD in your stories. your endings tend to be sad or open, and your stories have the power to drag your readers with you, from the highest waves of a storm, and to the darkest secrets of the ocean.

this feels like the highest compliment i ever received when i honestly feel like a 4-6/10 writer :’)

Peak brain: making the character have an assumption on people's gender at the beginning then slowly moving to them using neutral to refer to strangers because of growth.

Time to try writing the closet on fire ai guess

When reading fanfic keep in mind that for professional literature: 

Short story: under 7,500

Novelette: between 7,500 and 17,500

Novella: between 17,500 and 40,000

Novel: over 40,000

Fics over 40k are literally a novel written and shared for free.  If you have written a 40k+ fic, you have literally written a novel.
