~

Well, it's been eight weeks since I last logged in. Finals are happening next week and I have a lot of work to do, but I wanted to update this thing with some important information.

As the title states, I am not going to post anything Brainsick-related on deviantART any longer. This is a reaction to the downhill slide dA has been on for all too long already, as well as to the baneful Orphan Works Act. Brainsick is far too precious to me to risk vulnerability to thieves, because I hope to have it published someday. I have deleted my Elfwood account, which I'd created in seventh grade, and am going to limit my posting here to (possibly) work from school. I will maintain heavy watermarks.

I will stay to keep in touch with friends. I have several good friends here and know that dA is an easy way to communicate with them.

Brainsick is not going to disappear entirely: my dad's friend is going to help me build a professional personal website while I'm home on summer break. It's something I've dreamed of having ever since I first began posting my art online (Elfwood), and hopefully it will help me gain the confidence not only to get myself out in the art world on a more professional level online, but also in person. I will leave a link in this journal stating when my personal site is online.

dA for me nowadays is a huge waste of time - I typically only visit when bored or when procrastinating. This is not to say, however, that staying to keep in touch with my friends is a waste of time, because it certainly isn't. I'll likely be online a lot while home for break, but far less when in term at AIPD. I'd love to try to offer more feedback on friends' artworks.

With that said, I hope you're all doing well. I fly back home to California on Saturday the 20th.
