Ruby Welsh, now published.

So technically I'm published. Well, not yet. I wrote a story, and some big awesome people chose to give me money so they can show it around.

Thats how it works, right?



I won a contest over at the maddeningly awesome site "Nanoism." All the stories are made for tweets. The contest was to write a serial, a 5-piece story about a life, all done in those 140-character bits. I said "Why not?" and typed a random story right into the browser window.

That was a long while ago. Today I got an email informing me that I'd won, that I get money for something I made, that my stuff would be on a website for all to see.



That was five minutes ago. I've only just stopped running screaming through my dorm hallway, trying to find anyone who is still awake to tell them.




Now I wish I hadn't just typed the darn thing straight into the browser. Can't remember what I wrote. But I know it was based off of "Crooked," and it goes through the whole life of that little girl. I remember that I loved it, but I can't remember what I wrote!



BUT IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR SOMEBODY, AND NOW I NEED TO GO START SCREAMING AGAIN. I love alla y'all, and I'm sorry I've been absent. I'll post again when they tell me my story is going up on the site.

Hey everyone! College classes are just getting started, and it looks like I won't have a mortifyingly heavy workload this semester. I haven't had a lot of time for digital painting, but I have some traditional art to scan in for y'all. I'll be scanning/uploading them today.

Tomorrow I move to college, and start my seminars and classes and the like. Hopefully it wont be terribly hectic and frantic, and I'll still be able to keep up a steady flow of art. I mean, there will still be bus rides and boring classes, right? All the art may be in the margins of my notes, but hey, its something! :XD:

I have several new Flash Fictions in the works, but alas - my new schedule and life might send oneshotworlds into a temporary hiatus.

My book is currently being edited by a top-notch irl grammar/spelling expert (read: homeschool mom) and ought to be finished soooooon :noes: In the meantime, I might post excerpts and teasers, just because I can :woohoo:


Hopefully school won't be too hectic, and I won't disappear - but just a heads up if I do :) Also, thanks a baziiiilion for all of the lovely comments and faves and watches I've recived recently, which I haven't been able to respond to yet :noes:

ALSO OMGOSH KIRIBAN @ 10,000 FOR A FREE PICTURE AND I MIGHT EVEN COLOR IT OH NOES.
