superhero_muses--Who depends on your most recent POV character? Why?
Oh, this doesn't work terribly well with Aleister Black, because he's a classic loner with almost no human connections! In the story I'm writing, he's being recruited to join a squad of people who fight the supernatural, and in part he's worried about joining because it would mean caring about people and having them dependent on him... (which I didn't realize until just this moment, writing this, so that's a really useful insight!)
Fic writing is slow but interesting! Non-fiction writing... I sat down and hashed out the next set of essays and the schedule should give me content and goals until July, so that's both good and a bit daunting... I hope you're being daunted in the best of ways right now!

Date: 2018-09-15 10:39 am (UTC)YAY I INSPIRED YOU TO WRITE A LITTLE MORE. There have definitely been some times that I have considered doing that, too!
Writing has... happened this week, just not as good as last week. But! I did finish a drawing of Saitou and Tokio that I've been working on! I'm really amazed at how much detail I crammed into it, seeing as I do not know what I am doing in regard to backgrounds. I'm actually really amazed at how far my art has come in general in the last few years. Being able to illustrate my stories is actually helping to motivate me to write more of them too!
I'd never thought about how being able to do art AND writing might spur each one to get better! Maybe because I have never developed any kind of artistic sense at all, alas... Maybe when I retire? :D
