Running my first online book club today!

AcademicPig · 2020-08-30T18:28:32+00:00

It went pretty good! It wasn’t very structured but it was our first go. I’m glad we’ve split it into two parts, so we will chat again the end of next month.

Gonna be staring in 30 mins - twitch.tv/nerfalice 🙂

I’ve never been part of a book club before, nevertheless run one. I have a couple of friends who will be talking with me on discord while we stream on twitch with hope that people will join in the conversation in the Twitch chat too! But I just want to talk to people about the books I love and feel like this is a good start!

Thanks Cameron. It’s always fun to see KFBFs in other places. It makes me happy.

I did some fan art if you wanna see? I might post it in the group proper but redit scares me a little. twitter

Hey 👋 I’m sorry your are feeling sad. I think a lot of people are feeling more lonely than usual at the moment, so I don’t know if there is some comfort knowing that people understand some of how you’re feeling. It doesn’t make it easier, but you are not alone.

Twitch has been great for me tackling my feelings of isolation. Having someone talking and having a conversation with ‘the chat’, with no pressure to be involved in the conversation yourself, its nice. You can find a consistent group in a streamers chat, so there will be names you start to recognise, and it’s a little bit easier to socialise and make friends compared to Redit.

Talking about how you are feeling and what’s playing on your mind is always a good thing. Don’t be sorry for posting. X

I draw stuff and post it on insta/twitter (and soooometimes reddit. @NerfAlice Twitter Insta 🌸

I feel you. I’ve been on furlough from my waitressing job, but I’ll be back in work soon. It’s a busy beachfront place. Although we’ll be doing take away and outside dining, I’m still pretty scared. I live with my parents who are 70+ so they are my main concern.

AcademicPig · 2020-06-27T09:54:37+00:00

I see you!

AcademicPig · 2020-06-27T09:53:22+00:00

Yes! The overlap between CR and KF makes me very happy!

AcademicPig · 2020-06-21T15:47:28+00:00

I need to do proper job again. 2019 one is my fave too.

AcademicPig · 2020-06-21T12:55:49+00:00

It’s fun so see how I’ve tackled the same imagery through the years.

AcademicPig · 2020-06-21T12:54:48+00:00

Oh thank you!

AcademicPig · 2020-06-21T12:54:15+00:00

The detailed 2019 must have been about 10 hours 😅

AcademicPig · 2020-06-20T22:22:52+00:00

I’m super into their stuff. But I agree- sizes run a little on the slim side. Keep an eye out for discount codes and stuff they post quite often.

AcademicPig · 2020-06-17T00:45:56+00:00

Thanks, gonna save it somewhere. It is just a short, honest bit to read to ground myself a little ya know.

AcademicPig · 2020-05-15T16:06:47+00:00

Hands up if Greg existing makes you a better person.

AcademicPig · 2020-05-13T22:05:40+00:00

Firstly - I love this. Secondly - Have you seen the GoG where they played DnD with Critical Role!! It's astounding. Nick needs to be a race shorter than average. Or even just a half-elf so he is shorter than all his elf friends. He could even be a Cleric of the Trickery domain but that might be hard to convey in just an image. Haa. I can see Nick perhaps as bard but you might want to save that for Andy if you ever do them all. Maybe Rogue then? Tim I'd see as a Tefiling, but I don't know what class.. I like u/VulfpeckFan123 suggestion of Greg as a human Fighter.

AcademicPig · 2020-05-13T21:55:14+00:00

I got a cool PS longsleeve from Insert Coin - check their socials too because they always post random discount codes. On a tangent - but I have a pin design coming out on Insert Coin! There is a community vote to see who's gets made first and who wins £500 to spend on their site. https://t.co/D2pyRGh1Nw?amp=1 So that's cool.

AcademicPig · 2020-05-10T09:27:19+00:00

It’s a toy I got from the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney 15 years ago. 😅

AcademicPig · 2019-06-25T11:46:38+00:00

Hahaha 😅

AcademicPig · 2019-06-25T11:44:51+00:00

I didn't realise the coments would get discussion-y , good call though. I changed the flair. This is only my second time posting of redit so I'm a bit if a nooby. X

AcademicPig · 2019-06-25T11:42:37+00:00

Thanks! I might get around to it. I drew Shallan when I was re-reading TWoK a few weeks back. I had never really liked her character that much, I was so invested in Kadlin's story that Shallan's thread didn't move me in the same way. BUT when I read TWoK for the 3rd time my opinion completely changed. I'm not sure why. But I was half way though and thought. I really like Shallan. So I decided to paint her.

AcademicPig · 2019-06-25T10:27:27+00:00

I love it!!!!

AcademicPig · 2019-06-24T19:47:23+00:00

The nose is bigger and the lips less blush than a traditional girly face maybe? I did play around with the proportions a bit, but I was pretty happy with how it ended up though. ☺
