Character Feature: Roronoa Zoro from One Piece

Since Brandi @ Blkosiner’s Blog commented about Zoro sounding ‘awesome’, I decided that my first character feature would be about Zoro.

*Sorry it’s taken me so long to do a feature, or really, post at all—we just got back from driving to Pennsylvania, we had VBS (3+hrs a night) last week, and we’re thinking about moving to GA within 2 months, so…the vice of time has been tight!*

If you guessed that my first post would be about Axel, you were right up until the moment above. Not to worry; Axel has a huge claim to fame, so it won’t be long. :3

The Chronicles of Me (a mini-series of mini-stories and other such things)

This may sound stupid to you, but I’ve always wanted to complete a manga series titled The Chronicles of Me. (Great title, huh?)

Many of the events in my life could’ve made perfect manga panels…if only I could DRAW.

I suppose that my lack of artistic skill would be hilarious in and of itself, but eventually my failure to draw would become annoying, and then it the “manga” would ago up in flames—flames that I’d start to spare myself and everyone else around me from needless torture.

**Aside from that…it’s already the 20^th of May??!!!  Definitely feel like I missed half of this month o_o.**

K, back to The Chronicles of Me…

Even though I can’t draw, I can still share a mini-story or two about the randomness of life/dorm/nerd weirdness. Don't worry, though, this isn't going to be an every post kind of thing! ^_^' 

I am considering doing a few posts featuring artists from Deviant, a post or two about Axel, eventually an author interview...but for now I am trying to keep my head attached and promote serenity rather than stress by not doing a whole lot of blogging (I'm getting details for scenes and settings in SPHERES patched up right now).

*Names have been altered for the protection of the guilty. As for me, well, I have no problem being compared to Zoro, so…

SANJI 

                “You know, I could totally see myself with Sanji,” Hannah says, jarring me out of the One Piece episode we’re watching. Whipping my head from the laptop screen, I give her a look that says ‘you’re kidding, right?’
