Firstly, I just noticed I'm about to hit 10k pageviews. I've never been overly interested in them but 10k is alot. So yeah, celebratons!

---- the usual depressing but ----
Secondly, I've recently realised quite how negative I am towards my own work, and that my attitude has been upsetting/offending other people. I think people in real life are starting to look at me badly, and they'll always tell me that they hate me when I'm drawing, and give me hard looks when I say really it's not that good. This gets to me a little. Also, I've been putting pics on facebook, but recently a so called 'friend' told me that I'm a 'self-demoting bitch' and that I need to grow up, among other insults and threats.
Well maybe I'm too sensetive, but that really upset me - I mean I can't really help who I am, and in a sense being so self-critical is a good thing because it means I'm always picking the flaws out of my own work so that I can improve them. So basically the next time I act like this can you tell me not to, because I don't want to be hated my everybody, but I'm not sure if I can change what I am - but I want to try.
---- end of the usual depressing bit---
Anyway, I have to go, I'm going to the beach with :devxemmzy04x: today, so that should cheer me up.

Btw I wrote this in a rush so it may not make sense...
I've noticed that you're not negative all the time though, sometimes you do like your work and that's a good thing, it's not healthy for a brilliant artist to hate everything they draw. The important thing is that you keep drawing and improving (just look how much you've improved in the last year) and one day you'll take a look at your work and think "Wow, I actually drew that."
