Deviation Actions
On 7 January 2015, two masked gunmen armed with Kalashnikov rifles, a shotgun, and a rocket-propelled grenade launcher stormed the headquarters of the French satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo in Paris. They shot and killed 12 people, including nine Charlie Hebdo employees and two National Police officers, and wounded 11 others. The attack was an act of Islamic extremism and while that represents an extremely small portion of Islam, the attack was particularly violent and has me sick to my stomach (from a weird morbid curiosity to know the details, of all things).

Quick Question
Would anyone be upset if I posted some of my shibari photography here? I mainly use this account for writing because well, I'm mainly a writer to begin with, but tying people up (with consent) to make fun and beautiful designs has become a hobby of mine as well and the site redesign is not friendly to writers anymore. It's a fun way to spend time with someone I love and indulge in my artistic side. As of now, the photos just sit on mine and all my partners' google drives. Here's an example of the kind of photography I do with these photoshoots. Let me know. I'd like to share but if you guys are uninterested or don't want it, I see no need to bother you, but I'd love to share. Nic
Coronavirus Creativity
Hey guys, it's been a while. I never stopped lurking around here, but I did stop posting. I kept writing and creating but a lot of my creative energies have gone to projects that either don't work well here (the past two years I've spent learning music theory, guitar, and rapping/singing quite intensely). Any other energy I wasn't spending on my album I had was spent on work, learning programming because I want to switch to that career field, my fiancee and our wedding, and writing bitlets. Guys, I have over 600 bitlets. What do I do with all of these micropoems? Granted, a lot of them have gone on to be full-fledged works of literature.

Hullo World
What's up guys, it's Nic. I've been busy, lotsa life changes, including becoming a lurker on deviantART, something I never would have expected of myself. My life is changing, for the last year or so I have been working two part-time jobs to make ends meet, and with the help of my family I have kicked debt's butt and am starting school for programming.
I'm excited to develop my knowledge with code, and with the savings I have, I am about to cut down my hours at one job in favor of starting a website of some kind and building it up into something I can make money from as I go to school. I'm a bit paralyzed as to what the website should be abou
Weddingmania
Hullo, dA, long time, no talk. I never really stopped keeping tabs on this place, but I reduced myself to mostly lurking for the last year or so. I've been writing, wedding planning, and otherwise keeping busy.
If anybody followed me before my stream of updates ended, you might have read I ran a pizza chain. I have moved on from that now and started working with special needs kids at the suggestion of a former coworker to supplement my income while I looked for a new job with my skillset. I still haven't found anything, but I'm being very picky. My last job absorbed my life with very little benefit, and now that I've stepped away from that,
