I'm going to be gone for a week because I am travelling (I leave today :D), so I have to put a pause on the Circus of Greats, but it is almost done, I promise! Anyway, have a nice day everyone!

Guys, there are these people who have been essentially saying that I am more like a guy or someone with they/them pronouns. I am a girl. But whenever I tell them to stop, they just give me this condescending look... I don't even know. The point is, I want a bit of help on what to do because maybe it will encourage others who are in similar experiences to speak up for themselves as well. So if any people have or are dealing with this, don't worry; you guys aren't alone. Just felt like I had to say something, because no one has said anything for me, and I'd hate for that to be the same for any of you guys. :)

@Aruden4LYFEE It's actually someone else's (Idk who T_T), but it's a little ball python turned into a dragon-creature thing. I have been wanting to change it to one of my drawings, but I have been procrastinating SO MUCH you have no idea

@artastic_things ofc! Also, I MUST know that’s your pfp? I assume it’s a drawing of something but I’m curious if it’s from smth or just a silly goofy thing you drew.

@Aruden4LYFEE Honestly, thank you so much for this. I don't even know why I let them get to me, they can be so weird and extra for literally no reason. They prob just mad that I don't like them. They hate not having attention. Also, thanks for the follow, glad to have you here! :D

Guess what? I've started writing chapter one for the Circus of Greats :D (that's a lie, I started writing it a few days ago, but it's still in the starting stage. I have 548 words so far, so it's probably going to be one of those stories with a looooot to read.

Genuinely so excited to read this

I tried to make this announcement yesterday, but it didn't appear here, so it may not have been sent. Thanks for that, Wattpad. I spent so much time building up the courage to send that announcement, but please go ahead and remove it. Anyway, the point is, I have this little series that I'm planning on animating, but first, I want to see if I could share it in book format, and I was wondering if anyone would actually want to read it. If yes, I'll post a first chapter, and you can tell me what you think of it. Now, before I start on the mini description, I just want to say that I am NOT copying the digital circus. (I have had people accuse me of doing so simply because of the name T_T) The show (or story, ig) is called the Circus of Greats. It's essentially about these characters who are kidnapped by the antagonist, who goes by "The Ring Master," and are being forced to perform in the circus. When they first get to the Circus, the Circus itself assigns the characters a role (like being an animal tamer or an acrobat), and a power called a "Greatness" (for example, there could be the greatness of animal speech, the greatness of ferrokenisis, and, one that I personally have myself, the greatness of overthinking). I won't tell you how the circus can do that because spoilers. I think people might find it cringe, but my friends and other people who know about the concept of this show find it cool, so idk. I'll think of this as a test run. Anyway, let me know what you guys think. Wow, this message is long. Thanks for reading this far!

@AlexEnderstar1869 Yayy! Btw, if it's okay, I was planning to have some random references to your story hidden in there, but if you don't want it, that's fine

Hey, does anyone here have autism? If so, can anyone tell me a bit about their symptoms and stuff? I don't really care about whether or not it's mundane. For context, I'm trying to write a character with autism, and I want to do it right, but I don't trust that Googleling (why is that spelled so weird) any symptoms will be enough (It will probably be way too stereotyped tbh.) ALSO IF THIS IS OFFENSIVE IN ANY WAY I AM SO SO SO SORRY I DON'T MEAN IT (I don't think it is, but ynk)

@artastic_things not any one autistic child is the same but there are still general concepts like we want diff stuff like diff stuff have diff opinions and finger prints same with them

@artastic_things low functioning is when they r not able to express themselves and get triggered more easilly and need more help, the triggers r the same but the reaction is different instead of a okay reaction they tend to meltdown in many different ways bc no one is the same and thei rinternall state most of the time is their external state

@artastic_things high functioning autism is autism but they r able to express themeselves and dont need as much help, but still have the same triggers so they can act normal but internally its different (im not trying to be rude btw)

Who else thinks Jax is going to abstract in the TADC finale?

@certified_nerd I watched it in the finale. It was pretty bittersweet. It was nice but still hurt. Like…ouch.
