The Fanartist That Had Nothing To Do
...so she copy/pasted her journals from other sites into this one...
Who the heck who think of making a Sonic/Spongebob crossover? Or Animal Crossing/StarFox? Or just maybe take all of those and turn it into a huge comic? I WOULD. That's how much I have to do. xp But man, I seriously got hooked in this-- taking unlikely universes and somehow making them work together. It really does eat up my spare time!

AGENCY. This silly thing has gone sideways and upways, upside down and inside out. I've changed settings from labs underwater to Pokémon invasions to Animal Crossing Village to a planet called Xevious. I've gone from a secondary cast of well over a baker's dozen down to four people... and like from five subplots down to two. Characters that were once meant to be protagonists were bumped back to cameos or secondaries or were just cut off completely. And... D.W. was always there. biggrin

Now, the first thing that really bugged me about this crazy story was that the illustrations were nuts. The whole reason I started AGENCY was basically for drawing practice and I started making up some crazy twists in the already incoherent storyline just so I could draw one certain situation or expression I needed practice on. I filled an entire book with this stuff, but while it was fun to look at... I despised the story.

Second reason AGENCY bugged me was that I didn't know how I was gonna present it. As a comic or a fanfic? Back to my writing roots or drawing like I did during my practice?

Thirdly, it started to get very... idealogically sensitive. In fact, so much that I disgusted myself and threw out over half of my work. I went through some issues as I drew for the past three years, so I channeled alot of my discomfort and confusion into AGENCY. So when I got over my issues, this comic was all like a horrible reminder of what I went through. So I threw it out and started over.

So yeah. Check out the fruits of my boredom!
