Admin Post: Community Check-In for September

[goss]

Today's the last day of September, and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you this past month?

Did you sign up for or take part in any fandom activities in September, 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.

Who's psyched for Inktober? \o/

What are ATCs? Also wow your stuff is amazing! Do you mind if I friend/follow you?

[eller]

Sure, let's be friends! :)

And thank you! ATCs are Artist Trading Cards; basically they're miniature paintings in a certain format (2.5x3.5'' or 6.4x8.9cm), that you swap with other artists.

Yay!

ATCs sound really cool! I'd never heard of such a thing before and now kind of what to try.

[eller]

Yes, ATCs are a fun hobby, I make and swap them a lot! (The only way for me to have an "art collection", I can't buy everything I like, so I trade art against art... LOL) If you ever decide to try it out, there are several online communities around that specialise on ATC swapping. (Most online groups like that have some kind of rating system, for safety, because of the whole "sending by mail" thing.)

Thank you for the info! It wouldn't have occurred to me to look online. (I say, as I am online)
