In Which poor Writing Tropes can sour one's soul

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this post, and how happy I am to see you, on this Wednesday. How have you been? I always try my best to keep a semblance of writing rhythm when it comes to this journal-blog and so on, but at times it is hard to organize my thoughts. At times it is just sidetracking issues, my mind drift someplace else. So, as always, accept my gratitude for being here, I never take it for granted! Hope your day is okay. As for my own, the past few days were not a disaster! In fact, I think I am fine enogh, for the most part. I think the tropes of writing are very damaging when someone thinks they can be applied to real life, as well. Just picture this: at times, specially for the least for the less imaginative, a story to keep going, when things are alright for the protagonist, the writer, unknown invisible force on the story, throw things at this happiness to ruin it, so the point can get across. It is cheesy in a narrative to have such rhythm. But it gets even...

Sketch of the week! In which we talk about the guy with many last names!

Hello everyone! Happy Wednesday to you!! How are you today and how are things going?? As usual, I do wish you the best, and hope your week is going really well! I'm so happy to be here writing this post to you! Today was a really hot day and I'm a bit tired, and college is really being tough, but apart from that I'm having a peaceful day today, I think that's important! Today is also Sketch day so that''s so awesome!! I had a rush of energy this weekend and drew quite a bit! I drew the teapots for my birthday friends, and I also drew my new character, that I'm about to share! I am not too happy about sharing my drawings, but one of the motives of me having this blog is precisely to have a place to write and sketch and so on, so here we are! And we're about to meet the guy with a galaxy in his head!


With his very big eyes, meet Ptolomeus Selene Philopater Philomater Philadelfus Soter! This weekend I read a really small book in the life of Cleopatra VII, the last ruler of Ptolomaic Egypt. Small, but really interesting! Having this in mind, this is one of the rare sketches that was born already with a name and with a hair in mind! His name is an homage to Cleopatra and to Astronomy, and, in greek, means The Warrior from The Moon, who loves his Father, who loves his mother, who loves his brother and is a savior! Sounds like a long name, right? But the Ptolomaic rulers loved to filled their names with fancy titles such as these! My homage to the sky and astronomy comes with his hair, in which I mixed dark blue, really dark blue, and purple, to get this effect. this theme follows his eyes, clothing, and the actual naive stars in the background! I kind of liked this drawing... but if I had to change something, I think his eyes came down too big... but I guess that's the final result, and I liked it! The sky themed Ptolomeus whas also an homage I did to one of my best virtual friends, Corinne, who loves this stuff even more than I do! She's really smart and wonderfull indeed!
Our friend in common, Ptolomeus, is what we have for today!! Thank you so much for reading this, you're the very best, please never forget that! See you next time!!
