It's that time of year again. The holidays. A time to be with family. A time of giving. Store discounts. Putting garlands and plastic baubles on a pine or fir tree. Christmas.
I told how I was motivated to draw over October. The same can't be said about me with December. I could've drawn in the spirit of winter and I'm no stranger to a picture with the combination of white and dark blue. I wish I could really see the art of this. On a website, that's hard with all the lines of lights, the sleighs, the flying deer, and the Santa suits. To irritate me, the Holiday Baking Championship this year started almost immediately after Halloween ended.
I saw a bit of the art in Cake Wars: Christmas. While people decorated with talent, using fondant, sugar class, candy, rice cereal, and fruits, I saw people make mistakes. Even though they agreed on ideas, someone was occasionally put in a rush or let break, crack, or fall apart. I'm disappointed that I didn't really hear a team argue like brothers and sisters.
There was art in the Holiday Baking Championship as well, giving the professional bakers some challenges. I can name two rounds in which I saw such artistic treats, and they were quite talented.
As for myself: I was afraid that I wasn't in it. I love giving, but I didn't feel it this year. I'm still learning. There's much I don't understand and there's much I can't let go of. This is also a time to reflect on the year. I've read about many fuck-ups that happened over this year, and I've been to theatre more times this year than any other year, with several movies that I anticipated.
I like to think that it was in early spirit of NaNoWriMo that I wrote every weekday from September to November, alternating between two stories, each of them at around 24 000 words at this point. I held out my personal promise to ditch the kids' stuff with drawing. I made pictures with pencil crayons and markers of a higher quality. My first picture with them made me proud of myself and I had to remind myself to not get arrogant.
By the way, I'm not watching any of the Christmas TV specials or holiday movies. I stopped caring for those long ago. I'm only thinking about my favourite band, Nightwish. Christmas is the birthday of Tuomas Holopainen and other musical artists. Just like other specific days, I like to work on a project on Christmas Day. I'm not really social, either.
I hope to keep growing as a writer and keep going over the year to come. I also hope to see more art from my dear friends here on dA, while see what catches my eye on FA. I hope no one I like interacting with on dA gives up on what they love to do or on their dreams. I've been here for five years. To my dearest friends: I'm glad that you're in my life and even though you only read what I type on a keyboard, I hope that what I say is no less meaningful. You're like my family, and I love you all.
Now then, my friends' feature:

Self Survey
I'm passing this on from @KovoWolf. About Me -Meaning of my username: I came up with that when I was ten. I was on a secret agent kick at the time, incorporating impossible gadgets in whatever scenes I imagined. The "Agent" part was right there. When I first created the character of myself in grade 4, he was a secret agent, and he was first designated as 364. In grade 5, I added the 96. -One Meal to Rule Them All: Everyone knows pizza is my favourite food. My favourite toppings are pepperoni, green pepper and bacon. But let's be realistic. What meals would make the perfect day? Pancakes for breakfast. A club sandwich (without sauces or mayo) and fries for lunch with a latté. For dinner, I'd like to have a beef Wellington. Then, I'd have Chai tea, an apple, and a slice of chocolate cake that I made myself. That would make a perfect Saturday. -Best Gift Ever: Oh, God, I have received so gifts for Christmas and birthdays. One particular gift stands out among them: a wolf picture. It's
Art in October, and the Future
Throughout this month, I have logged in on here, the most I have all year. The most I've been doing is emptying my inbox of group messages. I still took some time to read other posts. Because of Inktober and Drawtober, I expected posts from people I watch, built upon the prompts. Including my expected monthly picture, I drew eight pictures this month. Three of them were prompts from lists, and I drew those on their assigned days. The other four were connected: anthro animals playing instruments, inspired by "Night in the Woods". I didn't post them on here, but posted the latter on my Patreon. Over this year, I've been posting short stories for Thursday_Prompt on FurAffinity. I've also been writing the first "Death's Blood" spinoff, "Blade Typhoon". When I first launched my Patreon, I thought I knew my first goal, but now I don't. I want to be able to publish physical copies of my works, but I have to know if people would endorse them. DeviantArt is like someone survived getting cut in
My dAlationship Sucks
Yesterday (July 10) was my 11th dA anniversary. But I didn't care about that. I celebrated the birthday of James Rolfe/Angry Video Game Nerd. I have reasons I haven't posted my art or stories on here. 1: I refused to photograph my drawings. 2: I intended to post my next project on Patreon before posting anywhere else. 3: I doubt that anyone would have time to read my stories or even care about this site anymore. I've been posting only on FurAffinity. Per a recommendation, I checked out a group Thursday_Prompt. Because of that, I checked out Furry Writers Guild, and added them to my contacts on Telegram. I have been getting attention that I wanted for so long, though it's limited to the short stories for the group on FA. I don't know if they'd be interested in my passion project for Patreon or even have time to read so much. It's natural that everyone wants to contribute to society. Writing is all I have. Getting my book published is how I hope to contribute to culture. Literature is a
Transition Period
Not that anyone cares, but I hadn't been on here for a while until I unfortunately logged in the day the frustrating updated feedback section launched. I'm not going into detail on that as it's not what I want others to know. I had a reason for being logged out of deviantART. Nothing interesting seems to happen on here anymore. I just have the tedium of needing to clean out my watch messages. I have gone through the phases everyone goes through in their relationships. I find my relationship with dA equivalent to people's relationships. I took it seriously and always wanted to be around. I browsed a lot of art with my favourite characters. I learned a lot about myself, too. I would realize my favourite art subjects and get to know some great people. I would often post comments on people's profiles and have conversations via notes. Some people I watched on here, I would stop watching because they stopped posting anything new or would disappear. I have also been blocked by people on here
