Admin Post: Community Check-In for October

[goss]

Tomorrow will be the last day of the month (Halloween!), and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you?

Did you take part in any fandom activities in October, or have you been working on any personal art projects? Are you currently trying to meet a deadline? Feel free to share upcoming challenges that have got you excited, any frustrations you've been experiencing, possible goals for the next month, and so on.

Also, if you participated in Inktober over the past couple weeks, how has the experience been?

Guys, guys I am so so relieved. I have finally finished all my BigBang challenge pieces! The last one just got finished and is being posted right away tomorrow! So that's four pieces I've done in the last two months: two bigish watercolours and two pastel pieces. I can't wait to share the fics and art with you.

Inktober-wise, as expected my productivity took a sharp decline once school started again. I did manage a couple more pieces in the last days though.
I can't even imagine what it would have been like, had I set out to do a piece a day like some of you. Big kudos to everyone who managed that! I was pretty happy with my goal to do something every second or third day. Next time, I'm probably going to set a time limit though because I did tend to try to overcompensate with some of the pieces (don't ask me how long that Aragorn piece took). Will post my most recent efforts soon.

Yay for finishing your Big Bang pieces!! \o/ I can imagine the relief. ^___^

Next time, I'm probably going to set a time limit though

Ha! Same. I spent waaaaay too long on some of these. Next year for sure I'm enforcing a time and size limit, so that I don't set the bar too high for myself.

It was a lotof fun but I completely get when some of you say you are burned out. I didn't even do one every day and it was kinda exhausting keeping up. But yay, look at all the cool art we produced! Your round-up post made my eyes boggle.
