The passion each of the contestants have in pursuing this dream of being the next big cartoonist makes me feel like shit. I'd like to believe that I'm just like them and want the same thing but clearly I'm not trying hard enough or even at all. I want to but I'm just not right now. Its a paralyzation by thinking ahead and putting all the work into something you love and not having anything to show for it. I know that that shouldn't be the way to look at it and that I should work on my ideas for myself but there's a part of me that also wants that feeling of validation. The first step to that however is actually putting yourself out there for there to be something to be judged, its just a hurdle, or the hurdle, I have left to jump. These contestants on the show however are putting themselves out there and I can't help but want to be where they're at even though many of them are just starting to put their foot in the door.
I had more thoughts on what I wanted to talk about with this show but I'm unable to articulate further on what I want to get across. I specifically chose to post an entry on here because I felt Twitter's 140-character limitation was too much of a, well, limitation but now that I'm typing this out, I can only think, "Watch and be inspired." which would surely fit on there.

Guild Wars 2
Gah! Its only two days 'til headstart but dammit, it feels like the longest two days ever.
Not that I've been the most active the past few months but even more crickets should be expected with this coming out so soon. Sorry.
Time to roll your eyes, this is about Mass Effect.
Now, first and foremost, this is an opinion and I am incredibly likely to be talking completely out of my ass. It will be also incredibly long and drawn out and I'm expecting no one to actually read this but if you do decide to, I would like to thank you now for taking the time. Also, I will be spoiling the hell out of several games and storylines. Particularly Red Dead Redemption, Fallout 3, Dragon Age: Origins, PvPonline and, of course, the Mass Effect series. As well as any other game/storyline I can think of as I continue to type up this post, which will result into something that may end up being completely incoherent and incomprehensibl
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
I've started procrastinating again.
I've been completely absorbed into Amalur. There was a bit of hype going for this game the closer it got to its release and, admittedly, it was barely on my radar. I decided to give it a shot not because I was hoping I was right or wrong on my judgement about the game before actually playing it but mostly because of Ken Rolston. At least, I think that's his name. Even now I'm not even sure. Whoops. He's actually pretty well respected as a game developer. Don't let my ignorance sully who this man actually is, I'm sure he's a legend in the gaming industry.
Anyway, I listen to Invisible Walls pretty regular
Apprehension
For the first time in a very long time I've been itching to create. Something. Anything. I just can't move past that hurdle of actually producing, however. I don't know why.
A while back I consciously told myself I'd step away from drawing so much "fanart", specifically Marvel/DC/etc. comic characters. Unfortunately, due to that decision, I think I lost a lot of interest in actually drawing. Though that sounds like an excuse to procrastinate on my own work. So I've been debating myself recently, telling myself to just suck it up and keep drawing fanart, even if I felt it would take away time I could be working on my own stuff (when I haven't

I agree that this series is one that shouldn't be missed. I find it extremely motivating as well as entertaining. So motivating in fact I've begun my own comic. Here's hoping you find the motivation you need too. I always enjoy your work.
