I am not normal...

[ellenmillion]

I was recently composing a forum post to let some artists know about some of my projects, and I kept thinking of more things I should tell them... EMG-Zine! Fantastic Portfolios! Commission-Control! Coloring Books! Torn World! *gasp for breath* Sketch Fest! Portrait Adoption! Muse Fusion!

Dude.

Any normal person would be perfectly happy to make any ONE of those projects fly. Me? I cut my projects DOWN to this list and when I'm not actually cataloging them, it doesn't seem like all that much. And, it's not even my primary source of work, and I'm still able to do my own artwork and writing.

Once again, I am faced with the fact that I am simply NOT normal*. Also, that I have some pretty awesome projects. And also, it scares me to think of what I could do if I did not spend so much time procrastinating, which I do a lot more than people probably guess...


* And I kind of like it that way...

ETA: Not intended as LOOKIT HOW AWESOME I AM (because there are equally impressive people all over my friendslist), I just surprised myself, that's all, and then blogged about it, because that's how I roll.

Normal is highly over rated.

*YOU* procrastinate?!?!? Good lord. Remind me to never stand in your way when you're busy, I'd get flattened!

No, you're not normal.

If I could bottle your do-it-iveness, I'd be wealthy beyond the dreams of avarice.

What makes you bearable is that you're humble and genuine. :)

Actually, if *she* could bottle it... :)

normal?

Normal is for boring people who have to label themselves to feel like they belong, creative people are never "normal".

You ARE awesome; you have an excellent ability to create genuinely useful and productive things AND follow up on them, which is quite rare and wonderful.

I have good ideas (sometimes), but I suck at follow through, myself!
