I wanna be a bit more active on DeviantArt, but since I'm not really an artist there isn't much I can do in terms of posts, so instead I'm just going to fawn over my OC's and allow other people to do the same! Admittedly a bit of shameless promotion on my part, for my books as well as the artists whom I've commissioned to draw art of this character. So yea, go read my books and spend money on these artists because they deserve it. I'll probably do OC features like this for a few of my favorite children, it's a good way to develop them first of all, and it's fun in general to introduce people to characters I've spent so long developing. Enjoy!
