Yeah, just an otaku that loves to draw and read and write. I also love kitties. I am working on some stories I hope may be published someday... xD Like that could happen...
So that was from a time when Black and White was the newest version of Pokemon games....
Here's an updated bio for any newcomers:
Hey, I'm Ashley, but I have gone by and go by so many more names. I started my internet years as an anime obsessed pre(?)teen and finally started to get into posting art when I found Warriors by Erin Hunter. Although I had started with some original characters and ideas, I found myself drawn to and loving drawing fanart and, eventually, fanfiction.
(you can skip this)
After Warriors, I found myself a member of the Naruto fandom. This fandom is the one I spent the most time in and really had a burst of creativity, as far as quantity is concerned, at least. I was in the Naruto fandom throughout high school but was moving my way into the Hetalia fandom when I experienced a lot of major changes in my life...
The girl I was in love with and dating long distance (only ever online and states away) broke up with me around my graduation and I hit a real rough patch. Not because she broke up with me, but because I had an admittedly toxic view of relationships. A couple years after this breakup, I met someone that I feel really changed me for the better. I still lacked any real interest in rejoining the internet artist lifestyle (or whatever this is) and stopped creating pretty much altogether...
Unless you count Dungeons and Dragons and other tabletop games. It's honestly a wonder I never found this fun sooner... but playing with my girlfriend and her family (& our friends) really helped me get a spark of creativity back!
(okay, long backstory over)
Now it's 2021 and I'm ready to get back into the saddle, I think. I'm happy with my life now and want to reconnect with my creative side. Warriors was once more the true catalyst to renew my desire to get back into fandoms... Now I'm rather enamored by the Undertale fandom, even if I feel very old and yet new to it. I am joining super late, after all. xD
2023 Update:
So I'm letting this account be buried in the sands of time, but if you're an old friend and wanna catch up, please feel free to message me. I still check in from time to time here. :3 Usually every two years or so, it seems.
