Week 10 - Something You're Proud Of?

[Tsushi]

Feel free to say more than one thing! Let's talk positively about ourselves, just a bit, as a treat! What have you done in the past 3 years that you’re the most proud of?

For me I am super proud of having gotten Case of the Serialized Killer done in just a month. And Is Lupin Still Flirting! I ended up reading them again and feeling like they were better than my worries at the time told me.

Writing is very hard for me, but I feel so glad I managed it and with Royce's help they got finished!

I am learning to reach out more, and I'm very happy about it. I have memory issues, and talking online is hard. I struggle to make connective ties, but I feel like the world is more patient, or maybe i've gotten better, but talking to people online is getting easier. I still feel like maybe i'm doing it wrong somehow, but it's not crippling anymore.

Another thing I'm happy about is marrying my wife, and having a simple courthouse wedding. Tmi but my family loves to ruin each others weddings, so getting married has always been a fear of mine. Not the marriage part, but the intrusive family part. So I got married out a courthouse, and it was just me and my wife, and my brother who is my very best friend. I would never have been brave enough to pull that off even five years ago, so yay!

Last thing, I started writing for Lupin the third again, something I hadn't done in maybe 12 years. I'm glad to be doing it again.

The Misadventures of Tron Bonne fan trailer I posted. I'm so glad how it turned out, I was thinking it was kinda shit and rushed (because it was rushed, I finished it a day before the deadline) but it turned out fine and was very positively reviewed by the Megaman Fanbase and got 2K views.

I got the Mother FES Trailer out too but it wasn't gaining the views the Tron Bonne trailer did but I love developing FES and we're so close to releasing a big update I just need to get off my ass and develop and draw. (Ahahhhaha Dyspraxia is a bitch when drawing) I'm still proud of the trailer we released.

and lastly, Leaving Amino. The pinnacle of Gen Z trauma.

 

[Drewpin the Third!]

Been real busy as of late and missed the last few prompts, but I'll jump on board here! I think the biggest thing I'm proud of the current state of Sideburns & Cigarettes. I started the show back in 2019 and I honestly think we've really hit our stride in the last two years. Was honored to have both Natalie and Emma join the show. They're invaluable co-hosts and, most importantly, truly wonderful people. We reviewed Part 6 on a weekly basis, which was a task editing-wise, but so rewarding at the end of the day. Feel like I improved in regard to editing the show and I got spend months chatting with some of my best friends every week. Friends who are truly the cornerstone of the show. Couldn't do an ounce of it without them.

Editing that fast and often is legitimately so impressive lol I definitely miss having a scheduled chat session with friends myself so that sounds wonderful! I'm glad to hear you're feeling proud of it!

Two things I'm proud of that I can think off: First, I'm started sewing a lot during these last couple of years, I started with small sachets to give away to people, and I've experimented with making clothing (Made a robe inspired by OFMD last summer, and some pants that are sadly way too big lol). Best thing is that I've started to get a rhythm for basic projects.

Second is that last year, instead of making a New Years resolution, I decided I was gonna write down what I did during the year. I did this by putting up a list of my bedroom door, so whenever I think of something, I can just write it down. This is good since I live a pretty boring life and it can be hard to look at past few years and see changes. This helped me feel less depressed about my situation since I can have a bad memory when it comes to things I've done.
Last week, I also started making notebook with Lists (Lists of Animes I want to see, Cool websites to remember, Favorite etc). It helps me remember stuff without constant using bookmarks.´or forgetting stuff.

 

[Lupin]

I haven't done much, creatively speaking, in about a year, but I'm proud of the art and writing I've managed to publish since getting into Lupin. Working on the Luzeni zine, etc. I also graduated college and moved out of the house so those are pretty big milestones, I'd say!

I pole dance and I nailed my outside leg hook and my butterfly handstand this year! (here's some pictures of these moves)

I went from my core muscles being so atrophied I had to see a physical therapist to doing these intermediate moves within a year & change. I've wanted to pole dance for so long and never thought I could, but I did ;__; With hard work and like, eating a ton of chicken, you too can achieve your dreams of spinning around at 90k miles an hour by one kneecap while half naked......

 

[The_Walking_Pie]

I've been completing longer and longer fanfics, so that's nice. I'm also proud of getting a non-contract job and managing to keep it. And I have a nice apartment in a nice area of town.
Next step, writing some original work. Maybe that fantasy world I've been working on and off on for ten years. XD

 

[Hooder]

My life has been a rollercoaster in terms of both mental and physical health.
I've dropped out of several schools due to learning difficulties but just even last year even with my lack of credits...
I managed to join a college that I passed and got my certificate in technology, I'm now in the diploma phase.

I realized that I was the only one who could actually do something about my education and while it's still an uphill battle (ADHD and all) hopefully it'll be worth it.

Wow so many of these are such wonderful achievements!! I hope you're all proud of yourselves! You're doing great! The idea to write stuff on your door is a great one. Collecting a little jar of good moments from the year and reading them at New Years is a fun idea too. It helps it feel less like nothing ever happens, especially when you have a bad memory.

 

[JeyPawlik]

Oh gosh, I'd say for myself it's finishing two long form webcomics and turning both into complete books?! Dead City started in 2013, Gender Slices started 3 years later and both wrapped up mid-2020. It was a really wild year for sure. I remember being really nervous after both finished up on what to do next, but everyone's been so nice while I've been posting a lot of fanart and really indulgent stuff!
