> Random Tumblr Passerby: Be the other guy.

You are now the other guy.

Your name is MARINA, you're also known as OZUZO in online circles. You're arguably OLD FANDOM and a GRANDPA AT HEART, but you're trying to get HIP like your FELLOW TUMBLR KIDS by having a pinned post with basic and mobile friendly information about yourself.

In that spirit, you have an array of INTERESTS such as FASHION, CATS, CHARACTER DESIGN, NOSTALGIC THINGS and NAPPING&COMPLAINING like an OLD MAN...

But above all and perhaps most notably, you love HOMESTUCK to the point of INSANITY.

You DRAW, WRITE and reblog HOMESTUCK FANART for the most part, but you will occasionally SCREAM INTO THE VOID, reblog pretty art and post about stuff yet to be determined.

What will you do?

> Ozuzo: Be the previous guy so that the other guy can become the narrator and you may get your share of assorted links.

Whew, this is getting a bit too self-referential for a blog intro, don't you think?

Well. Sometimes you gotta commit to the bit and the bit and I are now officially and irrevocably married.

But enough of that! You can fight boredom with this masterpost I put together, play these two silly games I made, take a gander at my portfolio, support me on Ko-fi or become my pal.

And last, but not least! You can check out my Carrd for even more links!

About the Artist: modernPsych0

Goo morning, everyone!

My name's Denny, I've finally gotten off my ass and decided to make an official art portfolio because Instagram wants to be a ✨cooter✨ when it comes to formatting uploads and cropping my art. So, I'll be uploading art from TikTok and IG to this blog from here on out, and hopefully I'll be able to learn a few things along the way.

Any support or advice is appreciated! :^)

Quick Life Update - Why I Haven't Posted For A While

Hi everyone! It's been a while since I've posted on this Tumblr!

Truthfully, we (my fiance & I) had a busy January and February 2024 - we went to Cuba, I had my first car accident, I broke a tooth, and my fiance had a problem with his arm's nerve, making it difficult to move his arm at all.

But not all is bad: I officially began to create content as a content creator, I'm working hard on my photography portfolio and my poetry book, and we completely revamped our game, so it'll look a lot better and have dynamic shading! Plus,. today, I've been selected to work on a children's book, which is a big step in my career as an artist! 🌟

I'll try to make more posts here in the upcoming month - and I'll eventually share my photography blog if I feel like it. ✨

Take care everyone, and good 2024! 👋

Summer writing schedule and major updates ✨

Hi all! Sorry for dropping off the face of the Earth for the past couple weeks, it's been a Time™. But I'm back and I have some pretty major writing updates to share!

The big one is that I'm delaying my query start for Life in Black and White to Fall 2023. Kind of a bummer because it feels like the millionth time I've delayed something for this project, but I've had some major delays with the revisions due to both work and being blocked on various sections involving rewrites, and I'm just not ready to query right now. I don't have a finalized agent list, I don't have a finalized package, and I don't want to half-ass my line edit in order to query sooner. I'm also quite burnt out from the revisions and, after the last chapters are done and sent out to my current readers, I want to shelve the project for at least a month before starting the line edit. Tentative summer schedule is therefore as follows:

Summer schedule:

June: Reading (!!), preparing query materials for Life in Black and White, probably zero drafting Supernova. July: 20K on The Dotted Line's draft for Camp NaNo, Life in Black and White line edit August: Query prep, Life in Black and White line edit

Other updates:

I've officially chosen a pen name and, in the coming months, I'm planning to build a sideblog (under my pen name) that will double as an online "portfolio" for my own writing so I can build some kind of "official" online presence in advance of querying. This (words-after-midnight) will remain my main blog, a more "informal" space for reblogs, community interaction, featuring and supporting other people's writing, and where I talk about my WIPs.

The idea is for the sideblog to feature a selection of my own writing (shortform stuff), regular updates, and hopefully a proper (longform) blog, something I've wanted to do for years now. I'm currently planning for the blog to cover mostly writing-related topics, and aiming to build up a "reserve" of at least 6-12 posts before starting. This is just so I can ensure regular (probably monthly to start) updates since, as you know, life tends to happen. Some topics I'm hoping to cover (feel free to suggest others):

A crime writer's thoughts on the true crime genre

Tips and resources for research in writing

Resource posts on writing-related topics (not to toot my own horn, but I used to do this professionally, so I'm pretty good at it)

My books of the year (in December)

This is mostly nebulous for now, I'll definitely update as it all solidifies. For now, back to revisions...

@00lembit00 - kind of official portfolio

@lembits-verisimilitude - just sims that i create

Rn my style is kind of all over the place so my feed might look off for quite some time but we shall prevail.

If yall have any questions or want to chat gimme a message 💕

Catching Up: Other Projects

I've started and not finished way too many projects this decade, many of which I've barely or even never talked about before, all of which I was incredibly invested in when I was working on them. Today, I'm going to talk about none of them. Instead, I decided to clean out my closet and keep only the most essential ones – the ones that still mean a lot to me – and I've put the rest to, well, rest.

I've already talked about some of the ones I'm keeping in this series, but there's a few that I haven't yet, either due to time constraints or because there's not much to say about them. So, without further ado, here's what's left.

Portfolio

When I was still looking for a job, I wanted to put together a portfolio site to show off all the different skills I've picked up. Even though I've found a job already, the idea stuck around, because... well, I've made so much stuff in the past decade that I need a place to put it all! I've used Imgur for this purpose in the past, but I haven't updated it in a long time, and I'd like to make something a little more robust.

The thing is, putting this site together involves programming, which is hard to do when it's what I already spend most of my waking hours on at work. So I've put the idea on the backburner for now. In the meantime, I'm thinking I'll use this blog as sort of a "content hub" with collections and tags for everything. It's pretty easy to keep up with, and would be a suitable replacement until I can put something more fancy together!

Mario Maker

When Super Mario Maker 2 came out, I thought I was going to lose my entire life to making levels for it. Instead, I forced out like three levels before I realized I was still kind of burned out on the first game. But since the new update dropped earlier this month, I made four in the span of a couple weeks! I think it's safe to say I'm back in business ✨ Since I haven't yet posted any of them here on the blog, I'll be doing that very soon, as part of the previously mentioned "content hub" thing.

Part of my initial fatigue is that I started to plan out these massive adventures where I try to fit as much as I can into one level. And while I did finish one of them, called Skyway Metro... I felt like it needed a strategy guide to go with it?? For some reason??? So this huge, completely finished level has just been sitting here waiting for me to make a completely unnecessary add-on that most people won't even see. Well, I'm happy to say that I'm officially abandoning that idea and releasing the level later today!

And as for the other big level ideas? I'd still like to make those at some point, but I find I'm having much more success (and much more fun) making smaller concept levels that I can put together in one sitting. All of them are written down, though, waiting in the wings for when I'm ready to tackle something on a bit larger scale.

Ice Cap Zone

Recently I finally opened up "Project Community," AKA Ice Cap Zone, a Discord server/gaming community that's not tied to any one game, person, or topic. I wanted to make something that isn't just "the WillWare server" or "the Mari0 server" – something that anyone can join, make new friends, play games together, etc. You can join here if that sounds like your kind of thing!

Unfortunately I haven't been able to put a lot of focus into it, and as a result things have been pretty quiet. I think part of the problem is that it's hard to make a server with no topic appealing, especially when literally everyone has a Discord server these days. I feel like it would almost be easier to just make it a personal server instead.

Regardless, I'm not letting this one go just yet. I've still got a few things I want to do with it.

Springloaded

Here's an interesting one – I've got a whole story set in the world of Splatoon that I'd like to tell someday! The thing is, I feel like it would be best told as a webcomic, and well... you've seen my story with drawing. But part of why I've been practicing lately is to get to the point where I could draw this passably. And so far, I feel like I might just get there!

Pretty much everyone who has made a webcomic has the same advice, and that's "Just start making it! Don't wait until you're 'good enough' – you'll get there by doing it." And personally, I feel like that's solid advice. So, I will!... as soon as Retrush is finished. After all, I really don't need two massive, years-long projects on my plate at the same time. Plus, it'll let me get some extra practice in!

Games???

Way off in the distance – past Retrush, beyond Springloaded – there are a metric ton of game ideas that I'd like to make sometime. In fact, making games has been what I've wanted to do since I was a kid!

Much like with webcomics, the best way to make them is to just start doing it. But right now, between work and all the other projects I'm putting together, it's just a little too overwhelming for me to add game dev on top of everything else. That said, I am starting small and letting myself tinker with capturing some parts of the ideas I have. And one day, when I have a little less on my plate... perhaps I could put them together.

———

Even after I've narrowed it down, this is still a lot of projects and things to do. I often joke that I've got enough work for the rest of my life! But the reason I do it is because I'm equally excited about all of these things, and I want to share them with the world.

A lot of people struggle with the mindset that if they're not constantly producing Content™, then they're not a real artist/musician/developer/creator. Thing is, I know I'm a real creator. I'm constantly dreaming of new things to make, I can't even switch it off! And I enjoy putting them together, as much as I can (reasonably) handle. Now I want to push my limits, learn new things, dream even bigger – and make them real.

It may take forever, but I'm playing the long game. It may take work, but I'm giving myself space and doing what I can. It may take skills that I don't have, but I'm always learning. And if even one person gets as excited about these things as I have been while making them... then it's all worth it.
