How to get more followers? Don't ask me I don't know either




So I recorded myself, a while ago, about this comic.



And made a video about it, I find this comic very funny and didn't think it would go anywhere, for I have more followers on Facebook than my Youtube channel, Instagram I for some reason is number one of followers. So when I posted this I was thinking I will only get two views for that seems the only views I get when I post a video in one day. But not this video, when I did this video I had 30 views in one day. 

Whoa.

I was shocked and right now it's around 65 views, I did this video a few weeks ago but 65 is the most views I got. I have never had that many in a few days, I don't know how I did it but I want that again, but how?? What was it that people want to look at it??

 I always try new ideas to get people to look at my channel, but I don't know the trick, I tried the try not to laugh challenges, I tried animations that are true and funny, some other stories that have no moral sense in them, I tried adding a weird character name Flanngy that speaks weird and does strange things with different people. Right now I am sticking to speed draw with some songs I have written. 

(They are fun songs, I hope one day I'll make an album for I have quite a bit of song I have written. My singing voice isn't the greatest but I don't know its not that bad either.)

But I haven't succeeded, I don't know why the Fat comic got so popular so fast, was it the title? I don't know, I tried to do something personal, my favorite artist, Imogen Heap, and my first boyfriend,  then my relative that is dealing with breast cancer. I drew a picture for her cause I felt inspired too, it has all the symbols towards her. It's one of my best work yet I feel like.

The vase that's holding those flowers is the breast cancer symbol. I shared it with Facebook in my personal profile and tagged her in it and said some great things about her, for she is amazing women, I won't tell you who she is but I know this has been hard for her. 


I don't know how to add videos at the end of my videos to have people click on them for my other videos, I see other people do it but they don't explain how to do it. I mainly do my uploads on my phone for my laptop is very limited on stuff, I can't make my art videos fast like I would like it too to make it shorter on my laptop, and each time I try to upload a movie maker it always ask for something every time I want to export it. So dumb, I miss Windows Movie Maker I enjoy that program, I can't get it now for some reason. 

Anyways so what I do I send the video to myself so I can upload it on my phone and then edit it on my phone and then upload it on my phone. It's the only way I can do it now and each time I do it doesn't give me the option to like add other videos at the end or whatnot... I just don't know how to get more viewers and subscribers. If you wondering too...don't ask me I don't know. 

I have been passing out at work TWO times now and the third attempt I went straight to my doctor and passed out at the office. What's wrong with me? No one knows, they check with everything and can't seem to figure it out. I do not like it since the second faint I have been having dizziness and it gives me headaches cause of it. So I can't work for a while...maybe never until they figure out what's wrong. 
Also, I have hardly done anything my book Sweet and Sour for I have been working on making posters for FAN-X!! I can't wait for that!!

Cartoon Characters are Not boyfreinds

So big news, I am going to Fan X to present my ART! Along with my friend who got the booth at the place, and I'll tell ya that's not cheap, I am so excited!

I just recently did a video about my love for my boyfriends and my hubby. My first boyfriend, or what I consider to be my boyfriend was a fictional cartoon character name Sanosuke Sagara from a show called Rurouni Kenshin. I was in love with him thru my jr and high school, he was all I could think about, I would watch the show over and over again and would think the show over and over again but only add me to it. And how I imagine myself as a high school girl wearing a blue button shirt and a dark blue skirt. I have drawn her a few times and you probably recognize her a few times.


My Character is supposed to be a Goddess that created the world that Sanosuke lived, but had an evil sister that wanted to take my world away so she would always come in and tried to take over. I had super light powers and had a few transformations into my magical girl. I did become evil one time but by Van Hell Sing anime I regain my good side and fought back my light and returned to Sanosuke. 

Yeah, I was weird.


Yeah, that's how I imagine myself. I don't know why the certain clothing for I remember years ago I had a dream that I was naked...yes it was one of those dreams... and I found clothes and quickly put them on and it was this dark blue skirt with a light blue button-up shirt and right when I found the clothes I found Sanosuke in the distance and I quickly came to him and hugged him. Besides the dream, I just since then imagine myself like that.

Anyways so yeah I had imaginary adventures with Sansouke I made up tones of different stories about him and me and it got to the point where my parents bought the actually plush toy of him and he was holding dangling earrings for me, it was on the of best presents I have ever received.

He wasn't the only one that I was head over heels for, I had others, I had a crush on Johnny Depp and did the same thing imagine myself in his movies and such. I had another major crush on Howl from Howls Moving Castle, when I watch that movie the first time my heart just melt, I loved him so much, I kind of dumped Sanosuke for a while and got myself caught up with Howl, would imagine myself replace Sophie and have other adventures together.

I also had a crush on Fakir from Princess Tutu but couldn't replace Aihru, same with Izark from From Far Away manga.

Along with Link from the game Legend of Zelda, and Robert Downey Jr. 

I have also fallen in love with Jake Skeleton, I would have dreams about skeletons and how I would fall in love with them.  Along with bad guys also like Voldemort from Harry Potter, the Joker, and Rumpelstiltskin from Once Upon a time show.

Yeah, I'm weird.

So from all that I still hoped to have a real boyfriend by the time I turned 21, I was done with my mission from my church and was ready to date single guys. But no one really was interested in me. I was hoping to date a few guys and then maybe one will stand out to be the one. That didn't happen, only one guy has asked me out, and that one guy was my first everything. I have told my story on my First Kiss video a year ago and he is the greatest. My song Winning Prize was my first romantic song and it was for him on our wedding day. Winning Prize is one of the best songs I have ever written the chorus shows it.





Winning Prize

The rain clouds starts to clear up
when you look at me
my heartbeat cant calm down
the snowmans can't keep me cold forever
for I feel so Hot when I'm around
you

chorus:
From Cartoon Movies famous actors
that are really good looking
I can compare
that my goal in life and
winning prize is here
and always be

gravity is keeping me on the ground anymore
the look you have makes me float away
and cannot get back down
oh I get emotional when you get so
far away

can I slip and fall to get your attention
for your real in this world and not
a fiction story or fantasty life

Imogen Heap music Inspiration

Hello, it's been a while since my last post and it's because I have been so busy. I have been working and at first, I absolutely hated it, the first time doing it I came home telling my hubby how much I didn't like my job. I work at a type of thrift store and I help put things from the back away to its proper place. I don't know why I don't like it I just don't.

After two weeks of working there, I passed out during work. I remember feeling nauseous and light headed and soon felt like I was going to faint. I totally did and some of my co-workers quickly came to me and got me to a chair and called 911. The people came but I didn't go with them for I'm pretty sure I just overworked myself and wasn't used to it. I have never been on my feet for seven hours straight for five days and sometimes had to walk to work and home. My job was like half a mile away so being on my feet was a pain and my knee wasn't in the best health it just was so much on me.

But I don't understand why my fingers went numb that freaked me out.

Anyways so yeah I have a job and I went to Saint George last week and that was fun so I haven't drawn anything for five days I was happy to be home and drawing again.

I made a video about a composer name Imogen Heap, she has been a role model to me growing up. She has inspired me to make my own music, even though I can't read music very well I made over 100 songs. Yes, today I can only remember how to play like half of the music I wrote but I do enjoy playing on the guitar or piano and singing to my lyrics.


Imogen Heap isn't making albums anymore, or at least at the moment, it's been a long time since she did a song and just recently she did one and I was totally excited and decided to draw her and I recorded myself doing it not sure if I was going to do with it. But I did I made it to Youtube and explained how I did this picture tributing on her new song. This picture represents three of her albums, 'Speak for Yourself" is her hairstyle and flower in her hair and that fury shoulder thinging she's wearing, 'Elisp' is the color in the background that black and gold color, and lastly 'Sparks' the white streak in her hair. 

I still listen to her songs I think she is great, I love how she performs her music it's so cool before she would use tons of keyboards and would have to go back and forth to play while she's singing, then it went to playing with more instruments and recording a lot during her performing, and now she has these gloves that I think she has invented them so she can perform her songs lot easier. These Mi Mu gloves are her greatest inventions, and it's amazing to watch her perform them.



I am on page 145 in Sweet and Sour, I am so close to finishing this book, well so close and yet so far, I just need to get it done and get an editor or try to edit...it's better if someone else does it.

Coloring was once a weak thing

Update, for the last posts I have complained how I was looking for a job and it 's taking forever to find one, well I have found one and it did take forever to get hired but the point is I finally have one. I do hope my hubby will be able to find work for I rather be home with my kids and taking care of them. My hubby is doing that now and he doesn't like it, as in being coop up in a home all day, and keeping the house clean, he keeps asking me how I do it for it is hard. 

Anyways I still try to find time to draw for that's something I still want to do, I am at the last chapter for my book and on page 139, I am getting so close but for me to do the last chapter seems it takes longer, I don't know if it's because I work now or because I am also working on another story. 
It's a story by my friend and I have gotten three and a half books on this story but never finished it, so hopefully I will finish this one along with Sweet and  Sour, Sweet and Sour first book is almost done and I'm pretty sure there's only going to be two books, if not three, but pretty sure just two.

For art, there are four basics, the first one you learn is how to do is lines, second is either texture or shading, the last one is coloring. That's what art is all about and what you need to know. A line is a moving dot, I started with drawing stick figures and eventually into people, the texture is all about the details like is an animal has fur draw the fur that kind of thing, clothes should have wrinkles and hair should look like hair. Shading is part of texture I think to make something look real, the shading should be fun, well at least I think so when I first learn to shade I really enjoyed drawing from dark to light and figuring out how the light works on objects. Now coloring is something I struggle, it was never my thing until I got my tablet, I love drawing with number 2 pencils and pens I can do so well drawing black and white but adding color? Now I never got into that.

But I have improved and now enjoy it, when I am working on a page I just have a need to color.

This is a comparison, from the first time I try to color to the recent time, this is like a year in between when I first try to the recent time. 

Ew gosh, I tried to hard on the background I didn't know how to do background, her skin color and eyes are fine but not the best, I do skin different now that how I use too before.

Now I really like looking at this one, still, not the best but at least the background is better and I think her skin and eyes look fine, and her hair looks good too.



Two videos that I explain the basics check them out. 



And here's to the most recent painting I've done to the first time I started painting. It's not all of them but you get the idea.

I am doing another story

So my hubby, (if you guys don't know the one that plays Barabra and such is my husband) he wanted to do a drawing thing with our eyes close, I did the blindfold even though he didn't know about it I force it so no one will peek, but it only lasted the first part of the video so maybe the Title isn't accurate but it's more exciting to say that.

I have been debating what other stories to work on and I think I am going to do by best friend story, the one I keep calling her Beth and has succeeded publish some of her stories on Amazon, I was sketching some of her characters and  one late night I decided to do the cover of the story show it to Beth and she absolutely loved it and was asking if I was going to do it. It wasn't official for I was still thinking to do Gaining Altitude or Moon Princess.

A dark story about a soldier falls in love with a princess who shines his dark past.
Triplets destined to fight the evil Lightning King who is taking over the world and magical creatures.

But I now am thinking to do my friend story which was called Legendary Blue Warrior but after I drew her main character outfit she now just wants Legendary Warrior which I don't quite agree with but it's her story so we will change it. For the outfit is suppose to be blue which I did but when I send it to her it somehow change to more a purple color and she loves that.

I don't know if I should share that picture but just know the title is Legendary Warrior. I personally don't know the whole story even though I have already drawn like three and a half books of it, I still don't know the story. 

I am still looking for a job, an actual job, and I don't know why it's taking me so long, I have work before and I feel like it was easy to get but now because of my knee I can't seem to find work and I need one ASAP, my poor hubby is so sick he can't work and hasn't been able to work for a while, we've been getting help from family and friends but it can't last and I hate feeling like I am a begger so finding a job has been my first priority, I have been interview after interview what's wrong with me!! It's my knee, I blame my knee. 
I will never dance agian...as in fancy dancing, I can hop on my other knee and move my arms but that's it, I probably can't play dance resolution ever.

I want to work on More Stories


I am a religious person, I believe in God the father and his son Jesus Christ, I have grown up in my church and on my mission, I had to figure out myself if what I was teaching was true, and I had by searching for myself and asking God himself and he has given me the answer that what I was teaching was true and where I belong is true and I was very happy about it.

I was studying the other day about Viture, and I haven't had a good study in a long time so I was so into it and decided to draw it. Use my skills to the test I didn't know how I was going to but I was determined to do it.


The quote is by me for that's how I understand virtue, it is something pure and keep the mind clean. For I  am not perfect growing up I may have been tempted and it was very hard to stop thinking it. But I know that the more I study and prayed and song good songs it got easier to stop thinking it, it was like a drug at first but it slowly stopped and now I feel free from it. I am sure this will work for anyone that is addicted or get tempted. 


But now I am conflicted, I want to work on another story for that's what I did before with all my lovely sketchbooks, I would work on four different stories at once and it helped. A lot of people would tell me that's not the right way to do it for I need to focus on one, but I'm sorry I like working on other books for it helps me. Doing one then go to a different one and then I feel better getting back to the first one  I was doing. I don't know it really helps me, I have been working on Sweet and Sour I am to the point where I just need a break, even though I haven't finished it I am still planning on it I just need to work on something else. I just don't know which one to do.


Gaining Altitude is one of my favorite adventure story that my sisters and I have come up with. It has full of adventure, fantasy characters, probably will be the longest story I'll ever do. I haven't finished it but the other day I was reading it and it made me want to so bad to finish it. 


Flower in the Dust is a story about a farm girl that found out she is Princess from a wizard world and demons are after her cause apparently she is the most powerful wizard on her magical land called Saphairy, it is a good story, has some great characters and I have finished this story, took me five years and it was a great accomplish. I would like to work on it again to make it look better but I would like the change a few things to make the reader more interested in it.


Moon Princess is a dark precious one, it is so well done and it's by my sister and I have tweaked it a little and like I said it's my dark precious one, it's not for kids, sorry kids but this one has to be gory for there is a war so there are blood and intense fights. But has an amazing romance story in it. 



Chapter three is all about how good people can be a slightly bad, not necessarily evil or devils I just name the chapter that for the whole heaven you either be a Savior or a Devil, so, in this case, yes these angels can do some bad but for good reason.


Joy has the longest hair in this story and I have to say I really enjoy it, I like doing her hair.






Their plan to find the crystals is going great, I am close where they found them all. I haven't done like how they found them all the time kind of thing for my focus is when they do find them all something happens when Joy gets her memory back. This is supposed to be a short story if they ever do like an animation out of it they can make it longer by doing an episode for each crystal found.

We need the Good and the Bad

I am in the process making the book Sweet and Sour...IT'S TAKING FOREVER! I mean what's the average time of making a book? My friend Beth is making books in four to six months and manage to do it in that time limit! I have been working on this book for over a year and I have explained the last post why it's been taking a long time. But the point is I just did a page today and I am like "Wow that took forever to do" I mean my goal to make a page a day but I think I need to step it up or something for I am taking forever.

But maybe it's not a bad thing for as long I am doing a page a day that's good enough, right?

I don't know I just wish it's done, I know it will eventually just takes forever.

 Izumi has an ex-girlfriend that hasn't gotten over the breakup. Every story needs drama and Akira really creates that, when she discovered about Joy hanging out with Izumi she does not like that. She wants to know who she is and why she is and wants her away from Izumi. Izumi is everything to her even though they aren't together she is crazy about her.



 As crazy as Kisa (Joy) is there are moments when Izumi actually likes her when she's asleep she is calm and very pretty to look at, even though she is acting like a toddler and drives Izumi crazy he secretly likes her.

Susie sees that she sees that Izumi has a thing for Joy and she thinks it will heal him from his past. 

This story is going to be short but it is going to be sweet and have a lot to learn about life. Yes, I have made up on how the afterlife is going to be like and I know nothing about it is true but the idea of reasons to have  Saviors and Devils influences mortal humans has a big purpose. We need oppositions in life for we need to know and understand the bad to know and understand the good. Very religious here sorry but I hope you know that I am religious. but whether you are or not we need good and the bad.
