Houston, we have a problem!

HELP!, July is almost over, and that means there’s only 2 months for October to arrive, important month for creative and mystic people. Only 2 months to prepare yourself for Inktober, Halloween, and on my case, for the birthday of my Scorpious Waifu:, @vanuzza.

Taking a look at my list of "Things I want to Do", "Things that I need to Do", "Things that I know I will feel driven to Do", I noticed how delayed those ideas are, especially taking in consideration that I haven’t even finished Inktober 2017...

Indifferently, leaving things unfinished is NOT an option for me.

I refuse to start Inktober this year, without having accomplished the last one, So let's put some speed on this trip between Multifaceted Witches!, and get serious with what we promise to ourselves.

• "First Sketch, and complete Lineart." – Drawing/Photo by @Tesmoforia, with a Lumix/Panasonic DMC-FH2.

This prompt’s topic of the 31Witches2, is "Athlete Witch"; and the first thing I thought was a girl who practices a discipline such ballet, or athletics. A person who is in perfect manage and control of her body.

• "Cleaning the sketch lines, and full inking." – Drawing/Photo by @Tesmoforia, with a Lumix/Panasonic DMC-FH2.

I decided to draw a classic ballerina, a serious girl but feeling the serenity around her, free at the same time she has discipline and gives everything of herself to this demanding life style, full of blisters on fingers, bloody nails, sore muscles and frustrations in her way to reach an ephemeral perfection.

• "Details." – Drawing/Photo by @Tesmoforia, with a Lumix/Panasonic DMC-FH2.

She perfectly knows that youth, beauty and freshness will fade someday, and she’s completely ok with that. She accepts everything that is to come as she meditates, with her mind in blank, sprinkled with harmonious lilac shades and hues.

• "Finished!" – Drawing/Photo by @Tesmoforia, with a Lumix/Panasonic DMC-FH2.

[From this moment forward, some of the Witches I’m drawing will had a little Tarot Card feeling on the design, and I must say that I love it as much as it makes me happy, it's a style that I hope to sharpen and polish.]

The physical effort of each performance, and her long hair tensed in a perfect French bow connects her to a distant, free, and more subtle past.

"In order to Keep Going, Being Positive is not an Option, is a Need"

... Sometimes I wonder, how does it feel to live in a normal country?...

** This week has been eternal!**, the world has slowed down catastrophically with the already known, frequent, and terrifying failures of the electric service in the state.

With each passing day the situation has only worsened; It's difficult to be productive and pro-active, even when it comes to the things you like and love, especially when electricity is taken away for up to 12 hours a day, in a city where the average daily temperature exceeds 34 degrees (right now it's 6:22 pm, and we are at 36°C).

... We are, literally, cooking ourselves whenever there is an "electrical shutdown"...

• "I had taken advantage of this time to read, finally some Fashion Design and Character Design Books, there’s a lot to research before sitting down to write, finally, that story that you wish to turn into a book/novel. It doesn’t matter how brief or long, the genre or classification, the coherence on a well-structured story is not going to happen out of nowhere." – Drawing/Photo by @Tesmoforia, with a Lumix/Panasonic DMC-FH2.

Today, I break one of my most important rules, which is to avoid writing about bad things, or write solely complains, those are habits that I try to avoid 24/7:


If it isn’t a happy or productive topic, I will not write about it.


However!, I mention this in order to start a brief note that I hope will help other users who are passing through this situation, and is the way to transform those "dead hours" where we aren’t able to work at the computer, neither be on the cellphone, during productive hours.

• "For example, if I’m going to create a character sheet, it’s essential to research color psychology and meaning before filling the blank spaces of the favorite color of X character. Nor can I indicate what is their favorite flower or the things they like to investigate and be clear about the mystical implications of each of these elements, as well as banal objects such as a piece of cinnamon or the feather of a baby turtle dove.." – Drawing/Photo by @Tesmoforia, with a Lumix/Panasonic DMC-FH2.

There are parts of creative process of whatever thing you do, that just need a paper sheet and a pencil, yes, it’s true but there’s another more important part of the creative process on which we can forget about the Internet and computer, regardless of the area in which you develop, and is the structured mental work, it is necessary to take a time in order to visualize and re-plan the order of ideas that we need to have pretty clear to know where we are going:

  • Make a list of your projects and goals, in short and long term that you have and divide each one into small tasks that may help you to achieve those objectives. This list cannot be written only once and left alone on the agenda, it must be read again frequently, questioned, and also be re-planned a couple of times. Priorities tend to change really quickly; we can always be more ingenious than what we were the day before.

  • Write, you must write a lot. Think in all the valuable drafts you lose because you don’t write those brilliant and fleeting thoughts your mind creates, and they are lost in the wait for "the Internet to arrive". Drafts of three lines written at the precise moment can masterfully concentrate the essence of the most complex idea.

  • If you draw, take advantage of these moments to practice, make all the sketches and studies that you can. Don’t wait for "that especial moment" to draw that awesome character or epic scene you imagine, there’s isn’t such a thing as "the right moment or place", THE RIGHT MOMENT IS NOW.

  • Do you have a comic project?, a book or novel project?, the most laborious and extensive part is the worldbuilding, this is a good time to sit down and read that book you bought to help you, but you have not even looked at.

More than a place where you can earn money by sharing your job or knowledge, this place has turned into an hybrid of a Personal Blog for me, and it will still be it, cause that was the reason why I came to Steemit.

I talk through my hobbies, and through showcase the small and big things that make me happy.


Sometimes I will post structured things, and others, more simple publications.


I have a long list of upcoming post and topics to address, organized on categories by their “importance”, but honestly I never stay with the order of this agenda, and instead I post depending on my emotional state.

At the current moment, I am very happy about how this space, in which I’m taking refuge, has being directed and the paths I had been founding on my journey.

In person, I usually talk a lot, I’m able to talk your ear off!, and my conversation topic aren’t exactly what people would like to hear, so I get why some people, when meeting "face to face", I don’t seem to be as nice as they thought, or after some minutes listening to me, they would prefer me to shut up, I know it.

That’s why I like to write, when I do it, I know that whoever is reading this, is doing it because that’s what they wish.

When I write until I get tired, and before editing, I am invaded by a very special joy, derived directly from the satisfaction of having overturned an idea that excites and enervates me without the subsequent feeling of regret when talking to someone out loud.


"Am I talking too much?"

"I’m sorry, I must be tiring you"

"Am I boring you?"

"I must had kept myself quiet..."


I hardly care what others think about me. But I definitely do worry about bothering others.

It is never my intention to bother, is the least thing I wish to do.


That’s why I like so much that my blog is here. Because that’s what I like the most at Steemit!

In conclusion, I am very happy to have arrived at this place, I will continue posting and pawing this keyboard with my Strawberry-paw, sometimes I will do it very seriously, while other times, I will do it in a brief and super spontaneous way, I know I can’t be left alone for long and much less to decide for one of two modality: The seriousness and being informal.

I will always kind of float and dance between one and the other.

Time here is short and scarce, precious and valuable, to waste it by labelling us.
