Five-Hundred Word Challenge 1492: This Isn’t a Great Time
Still no new job and still facing homelessness. Looks like I’ll have a couch in the short-term, at least. That’s a good sign. That’s a relief. But it’s only time. It’s valuable time though, I need to be clear. A … Continue reading

Mysterious Structure
I think this may have been a cafe of some sort. I have no idea. I walked past it a few times, took some photos of it. It might still be where it is; I have no idea as I … Continue reading

Ivysaur
So it’s the second pokemon, ivysaur. This one probably didn’t take too much time, but it felt like it did. After the initial sketching I decided to draw some more solid lines to cut down on the amount of erasing … Continue reading
Hitomi Sato: Route 12 (Autumn/Winter)
One listen. A lot of the main Pokémon games’ soundtracks are quite beloved, and for good reason. They’re composed appropriately and don’t offer more than necessary, but also appeal when removed from the context of the games. I think that … Continue reading

Hitomi Sato: Undella Town (Autumn/Winter/Spring)
One listen. There’s a few more to come this morning. I queued up some tracks yesterday to write about, but yesterday ended up being a train wreck so I’m doing them now before work. A pretty calm track and once … Continue reading

Five-Hundred Word Challenge 1491: Been a Day
It has been a day. I’m still standing. I’m still alive. I’ve done some things. But it has been a day. I am tired and worn out, and I am struggling hard. Will get through it, but it’s gonna take … Continue reading
Go Ichinose: Lilycove City
One listen. I wanted to draw more on the imagery of where this song is used as it’s quite fitting. An area that has some bustle, but also quite calm. A calm bustle, if you will. Didn’t quite come out … Continue reading

Two Thousand Words in Twenty Minutes: Why?
Why am I doing this? Why am I doing this to myself after I decided to not do another one? It was never meant to be a repeated challenge, and the last time I did it I felt that became … Continue reading
