I really should change my name to Lucy Lurgy X_X

 Not been too well these past days as I have migraine and I keep being sick, have to do my best impression of a mushroom and lay around in the dark. Though I started on some extra R!BB art. Okay, it's just Arthur for now, but I’m working on it. Might not be much art to share for a while though, so don't forget me ;_;

This may sound daft, okay it is daft. However, I’ve been talking to some people about art colabs and such. And the general idea I’ve collected is that sometimes writers are a bit nervous to ask us artist to draw for them. That sometimes they won’t ask because if they think you're good (pfffft where? Slow and lazy, yes XD)  they would feel rude. Probably can’t talk for the other artists, because that would be rude, but I know for one I’d love to work with some writers in the future. I’m having fantastic fun listening to the guys doing my R!BB, they have such cool ideas and it’s wonderful to see something brought to life. And I've enjoyed doing my BB immensely. So never feel shy, okay. I think when I finish all the things I have to do, I’ll get round to drawing more for the writers I love.

I’m a still a little down in the dumps because I’m convinced I’m the most boring person in fandom right now *sighs* I’ve been in fandom for how long? And I still don’t know people very well D: Maybe because I’m shy on Twitter and the like, but I’m also thinking of deleting that and my Deviant Art of late. If you can’t see things, you can’t feel lonely, is my motto in life.

Goes back to being ill in the dark. I feel like a Mogwai right now, argh bright light :D

I would love to collaborate more with writers, too, though keelain raised a really good point about the extent of collaborations that I'm kind of worrying about with my reversebang authors: is it okay to bring up certain things that don't work for me in a fic or is that out of line and should I just provide the pretty art and generally cheer them on?

Anyway I hope you feel better soon.

I think in the case of writing FOR your art, yes, by all means speak up and say which parts don't work for you! I mean, if I wrote a fic and was collaborating with someone who, say, totally drew Character A's hair all wrong, I'd point it out. Not in a mean way, of course! But I think the collaboration benefits far more when both parties are honest about the final product. :D

I think foxcub says it much better than I. But with the R!BB being for our art I think it's perfectly okay to bring up points you not so sure about. After all I think most of us had some sort of idea of what we wanted and it can be hard to let that go.

Thanks hun, feeling a bit better today. I have so much to catch up on, including your art :)
