Would you believe that the idea and story came about only because I sat down to photograph the 4 (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | | (...) Hmm, yes, I could believe that. Although my stories usually come to me when I'm trying to think them out, a few of my big ideas came very randomly and suddenly. And my characters all came *much* before the story did! I *always* have characters (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle)

Well, I'm not an overly artistic person, so it's reassuring to know that I can do SOMETHING semi-artistic and have people say it looks good. Nah.. not too scary. Unlike .space - I (...)

| | | | | (...) Well, I checked it out earlier today at school, and I think it's fantastic! Very good for your first story. I was amazed how much image-editing you did for it. I particularly liked the ones where the LEGO path connected to the "real" path, (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle)
