"See, this is the good bit about writing. It's what keeps you going. It's the wild rush of 'shit, did I think of that?' with all kinds of weird chemicals shunting around your brain and ideas and images and moments and storyforms all opening up snapsnapsnap in your mind, a mass of new and unrealised possibilities.

It's ten past two in the morning, and I'm completely wired, caught up in the new thing, shivering and laughing and glowing in the dark. Just as well it's the middle of the night. No-one would be safe from me right now. I could read their minds and take over their heartbeats with a glare.

Faster than the speed of anyone.

That's how it works."

ART: two fanart, one original and my sketchbook cover

Title: Doorway
Characters: Death (The Sandman)
Rating: G
Medium: Ballpoint pen, pencil
Notes: Ugh anatomy.

( June 1 )

Title: Sweet Transvestite
Rating: G
Medium: Ink & nib pen, watercolour
Notes: I lovelovelove my new nib pen, even though it makes crazy squeaky noises like it's being tortured sometimes. I might be doin it rong. But the varying line weight, oh, it is pretty. Strictly speaking this is fanart for a really obscure Norwegian novel, but I'll let it slide as original for now.

( June 15 )

Title: Pansy Drew
Characters: Pansy (Harry Potter)
Prompt: 04. Found It
Rating: G
Medium: Ink & nib pen, photoshop
Notes: My sincerest apologies for the corny title, I couldn't help it. This is for

tbranch, who recently walked through a plate glass window. D:

ART: Curl / ART: In Idleness

Title: Curl
Characters: Narcissa
Prompt: 50. Smoke [Artist's Choice]
Rating: G
Medium: Ink, Photoshop, brushes from here
Comments/criticism: Yes, please.
Notes: Inspired by the 1940s-ish style of women drawn for the New Yorker. And no, that isn't some crazy wizard crack she's smoking, it's a wand holder. :>

( It looks like a cigarette holder, but... )

Title: In Idleness
Characters: Pansy
Prompt: 06. What Now?
Rating: G
Medium: Ink, Photoshop
Comments/criticism: Yes, please.
Notes: An older Pansy, drawn in (an imitation of) the style of Lan Medina in Fables Vol. 1: Legends in Exile. Both colour and grayscale because I couldn't make up my mind which one looked best.

( Love-in-idleness, n. One of many old names for the pansy, a cultivated garden flower. )

ART: Hogwarts Express

Title: Hogwarts Express
Characters: Draco, Pansy
Prompt: 41. Lucky
Rating: G
Medium: Ink, artist pens, coloured pencils
Comments/criticism: Yes please.
Notes: The scene in HBP when Harry is hidden on the luggage rack beneath the Invisibility Cloak. Please excuse my Gryffindorising of the train compartment--I didn't realise it until I scanned the drawing. :3 I'm getting really sick of coloured pencils, but I'm not sure if I can be bothered to learn how to use something else.

( Anyone would have loved to be in her place. )
