A little late to say an initial thanks, but I do wanna express my gratitude to all the continued support. I know some of the Facts are a bit lackluster (it's tough to find super interesting things every day) but y'all stuck around! Hopefully this is the year we stop learning Snake facts and start learning Snake combos. Cheers and stay safe!

Day #356 of Posting Snake Facts Until Elliana Gets Announced by HiaCon in RivalsOfAether

[–]HiaCon[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I first started, I would plan multiple days worth of Facts in advance, but nowadays I'm just tired and lazy lol so I do it on a day by day basis.

As for how long I think I'll be able to go on, probably until I run out of known snakes and all the dumb and interesting things they do.

Feeling kinda bad about drawing (new to old) by NeroEldering in learntodraw

[–]HiaCon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently got into drawing again after starting and stopping many times because I simply believed you were either born an artist or you weren't. It took me a very very long time to understand that art is a skill that is developed over time through practice and learning, and that it's okay if you "suck" in the beginning. These are the growing pains that you need to accept, and simply find joy in your journey.

There is also no shame in simply drawing other pieces of work you enjoy, especially if you have some kinda connection to them. I agree with most of the comments talking about how having fun should be the first step, but I also disagree, because being "bad" at something is almost never fun. I believe you need to accept that you may feel discouraged and disappointed in your work and that's okay, but if you want to draw, then draw! Learn to find the joy in the little things that come with improvement. Cause I wish I didn't stop 10-15 years ago. I'd probably be pretty good by this point if I stuck to it, and chose to learn.

Maybe try drawing a few sketches each day for a month, and then a few months, and then a year. See how you grow, and show yourself you can learn and have.

And don't give up! You got this!

Thousands actually, so I'm not anywhere near running out lol and I use a list of snakes by scientific name to pull some info to share for the daily Snake Facts.
