[b]lol, have fun with this poll[/b]

I was the first person to vote! YAAY! I voted for the first option, great writer but crap drawer type thing. lol. I love my writing and i'm just finishing up a trilogy i started awhile back. Thank god, it's extremely long. *sighs* almsot there but not quite yet.

I voted so-so cuz I want to be known in both. I'm simultaneously working on four or five long stories and I take the time to draw pics for em, not to mention my single longest story that I've been working on for over six years Laughing

I voted artist because my art teachers told me i was never good enough and i wanted to be and i was also never elequant with my words os being a writer would be pointless for moi Cool

BAMFManiac · Posted: Mon Dec 15, 2003 1:59 pm Post subject:

hmm tough choice, but i also put the so-so one because i love both! and since i have no talent in either at the moment, i'd be satisfied to be a less-than-exceptional artist [i]and[/i] writer instead of one or the other. (plus, if i couldn't write at all, i'd be kicked out of my english and history classes).

I wouldn't exactly say i was "talented" in either, but i'm more happy with my writing that my drawings. And since i love it so much, i'd prefer to be know for it other than my work i don't like so much (i'm very critical of my drawings)

And i have people do the drawings for my stories. I think i have around 4 in the works now, i mean four drawings that are being done for me now, and three already done. The ones done are posted on this site by the artist that do them. Reminds me, i have to talk to LiYang about the one. hmmm.

I voted artist because my writing's crap. Besides, I don't like my name, so I don't care if I can't write it.

I just loove compromises. And we all know I'm not extremely talented in either area so it's best to just stay that way. Cool

haha that's a good reason, fallen!

that's really great that you enjoy writing so much, lasher. (most people i know only pick up a pen to write homework assignments- and then only sometimes- or notes to each other). i like it a lot, but i'm just not good at it. and drawing is a little less strenuous for my brain, so i feel more relaxed doing it. and i'm sure you're a wonderful writer if you love it that much. :)

i definitely agree with that philosophy, chris.

*coughs* well, all my writing is done on my laptop and submitted to two sites....well actually three because of this one bit i still refuse to update here, i hate the fanfiction section here and i get grumpy after updating sooo.

And FALLEN, in my writing, i never use my real name, i've never signed my work with my real name, always GE for GenesisEve, Lasher, and on my paintings sometime, i put a thumb print in the corner. Now that's true identification, lol. And it's different. If i ever become a professional writer i would use my GensisEve for my name. I would be one of those that never reveal they're real name and have that hint of mystery, lol, yeah, right.

AH, chapter #24 was submitted tonight, and thus for the ending story of my trilogy has.......

Judgment Day is so far

24 chapters
674408 Characters
125007 Words
11189 Paragraphs
244 Pages

I'm not done yet, and this is the ending story of a trilogy. *sighs* Well, i love my wiriting so, i wish i could make money off of it, soooo bad. That would be like a dream getting paid for something i like so much, and i could think up some good s**t i do believe ^_^ Well, i'm off to bed, laters.

I chose Art. It's my forte. I love writing too, but meh. Art is still no.1. Cheers,

Thats always good, art in general. i love to paint, i wish i had some canvas and new paints so i could. I'm all out of canvas and my paints are getting a little low in supply Sad

But i'm naturally better at writing and it makes me feel better when i do it. sometimes trying to draw something, i get really annoyed, and even with my painting i can if i can't think of something to do or can't get the effect i want. But it's all good.

Perhaps, but the option was "a better artist than Monet, but can't spell your own name". Razz

I said other. I want to be both a great writer and artist.

I'm not a big fan of Monet. Razz

If I could vote again, I'd have chosen artist only. I want the reach the same caliber as Yoshitaka Amano and Tetsuya Nomura one day(although I know that could never really be possible). I'm also a big fan of Fra Angelico, and various artists of the Renaissance. The smoothness and glow of the art in that time is uh, divine. ^_^; (I find Monet odd)

[i][b]I don't mind Monet, it is those people who get paid for just flinging paint from a brush onto a cheap canvase.[/b][/i]

Lasher · Posted: Thu Dec 18, 2003 12:22 pm Post subject:

Lol, umm, i have two of those paintings, but it's on nice canvas, not cheap, lol, and it's going to be a set of three. But i also do sunsets and things, but i like messy looking stuff, i like to think of it as, "So that's whats going on chris's head?" lol. good example eh? maybe. *Shrugs*
