#THANK YOU FOR ENJOYING MY ZINE!!! ♥️♥️

[pencilscratchins]

Hi! I love the Hawkins Collection so much. The way that you capture the characters is so you (I've been following since the ATLA renaissance), but still true to the subjects-- you capture Dustin, Hopper, and Joyce particularly well. Also, LOVE the Sarah Lawrence pennant-- I go there and I was like hello!? What was the story behind that??

THANK YOU omg thank you for sticking around so long, seriously, im sure my constant changing of interests is not easy to sit through 😂 the sarah lawrence pennant basically came from me trying to decide what college robin would theoretically want to go to. being a lesbian from jersey, my first thought was obviously “she’d want to escape her small midwest town and go to sarah lawrence” but after living in indiana for a while, i realized that the midwest equivalent to that is actually oberlin (which is in ohio.) but i ultimately went with SL because of my physiological need to remind everyone im from the east coast.

HAPPY BIRTHDAG MY BELOVED WIFE!!!

can we get a recap of your favourite experiences the past year???🥺🥺🥺🥺

NAWWW, WHY ARE YOU GUYS BEING SO ADORABLE RN 😭♥️♥️

Uhmmm uhm, DEFINITELY finishing that My R animatic is one of them. Ive been wanting of making one before I even really started drawing. I was really happy that I finally made it wjdvjwvd

Hyping up about the tg countdown was fun, I didnt mind what the reveal was that much wjdvwjvd

COMIC CON WITH YOU WAS GREAT, as it is every year, duh. Visiting you is always a highlight ♥️

Meeting Leila as well 💕 Meeting online friends for the first time is always special, I feel so privileged and happy that Ive been able of doing that

Comic con germany with my friend was also amazing because that was the first time I made a trip with her and really enjoyed it

Generally so grateful for my irl friends and online friends (all equally my friends for all I care) because you guys always cheer me up and bring me joy.

Also my mum, the most important person in my life, I'm so glad I have her. I love her so much.

The concerts I went to: mother mother (BANGER), olivia Rodrigo (magical), the Rose (made me understand Kpop fans so deeply), the nier concert (I may have cried a little), TOUCHED (THE GAY PANIC I HAD), Lordi (I wouldnt do it again but hearing metal music live is a really cool experience)

Being able to visit my grandpa again in azerbaijan and celebrating his birthday 🤲💕

It was also cool to have my first job but to be real. Best part was ofc receiving money KWVDJJWD my colleagues were kind but my superior with whom I interacted the most had such a... idk heavy, stressed, negative aura. I hope she is doing well but god, that made me so anxious. Social anxiety was NOT helping. So yeah, quitting felt also amazing uwu

UHHH, ALL THE ZINES I WORKED ON, now that is truly one of the highlights. I love working on zines (even tho I'm a chronic procastinator, god help me) but yh, the 9S2B zine was especially a joy to work on as a Mod ♥️

Every single time making and Posting touken art, god I love them. A big contributor to the joy in my life, I love being obsessed with ships JWVFJVW Ive always been that way and im probably never going to change in that regard. When I dont have characters to ship, I will (literally, I used to do that as a child) ship colors. I am unstoppable

Its really shitty that negative experiences stay much stronger in our minds, I first needed a moment to remember the good stuff because my mind first went to all the bad stuff. Thank you for the question my wife, I really needed that 🤲

Makes me realize how much there was to smile about

for the ask game: ✍️🛒💖 hope you're having a lovely day!! ♥️♥️

I'm having a good day and I hope you are too <3 thank you for the ask!

✍ Do you have a beta reader?

nope! sometimes I get my friends to beta for me when I do zine projects, but otherwise it's just me in the trenches

🛒 What are some common things you incorporate in your fics? Themes, feels, scenes, imagery, etc.

for ship fic I tend to use lots of weather metaphors which is interesting to me because it happened completely by accident. in my other fics, I really enjoy writing observer povs. I think that's the best word for it anyway. stuff like when the fic is from the perspective of a character that can't drive the action (ghosts, outsider/character w/out all the info, children, that kinda thing)

💖 What made you start writing?

okay so if we're going back to The Beginning, it's 1000% because I was an impressionable little kid and my elementary school teachers did nothing but praise my creative writing assignments. what made me start writing for fun rather than for school, though, is that my best friend introduced me to wattpad and fanfiction when we were in grade 6 and I wanted to write about zombies. things just sort of spiralled from there

send me a fanfic ask?

i've been following you for a while and i have to say, you are one of my favourite artist :)

that's also why i made it my inofficial goal to collect all the zines you put out cause they're always a work of absolute beauty and wether it's fandom or original work, a joy to look at!

so i am rooting for you in 2023 and i will be excited to see what you'll put out!

Hello! Oh my goodness that is so kind of you, thank you 😭♥️ this means so much! I’m glad you enjoy all my projects, I try to switch it up between something original and fandom fun, so hopefully whatever comes next will be enjoyable for you! (Spoiler: a small Megumi Ogata tribute zine because I wanted to continue the seiyuu series huhu)

Hope you have a wonderful day!

Hey, look at there, look! My first entry to a zine, and what a ZINE!

I enjoyed to be part of bunch of great people and working on my piece. It's full of amazing pictures and stories, I can tell you. And I still can't believe I got the chance to be there.

Thanks again for having me ♥️
