Why I really hate reading some books

Sat Nov 7, 2009, 9:02 PM
I don't read often but I do read sometimes. I would say the first books I read that got me to enjoy reading were probably the Redwall books, but they are also a major reason why I find reading young adult books annoying. The last book I read was Rakkety Tam. Since then I've been tired of the Redwall series but have always been on the look out for them in case another book would come out that might interest me to read it. The last book that was written was called Doomwyte, which didn't look paticularly interesting to me. But just the other day when I was carpooling with some friends I found the book in the back seat of the car and I was curious so I began reading. At first I thought the book might be of interest, but it was at pages 11. and 12. that the book did something that I can never forgive it for doing. I had a very nostalgic feeling come over me when I read those pages. It was a feeling I had completely forgotted about. I hated the book and will never read it as long as I live. I realized that it's because of that book and previous books like it that I gave up reading somewhat and ended up drawing things like wolves, ferrets, gnolls, and minotaurs. It's books like that that make me shout at the sky, "WHY ARE THEIR NO INTERESTING CHARACTERS IN BOOKS... and why is it any that are interesting die." If I only could think of a good idea then I would write a book someday, and make it fulfill everything that I felt all other books have lacked.

My, but you've got some awesome art here :) I especially love all your Kung-Fu takes on different animals. I'm a fan of fighting games, so crossing that fighting concept with anthro characters is always cool to me ;)

What's also interesting to me is how you really maintain the animal part of your characters. It's something Bluth-like, honestly, to keep as much of the animal anatomy and figure as possible and yet still give them human qualities in personality and attire. Makes for a unique look :) Keep it up!

*sighs with happines* I've been waiting for the day someone would make the comment you just made. What you just said is exactly how I try to make my anthros. "keep as much of the animal anatomy and figure as possible and yet still give them human qualities in personality and attire."
Thank you so much... That's the nicest comment I've ever had.
