# About me

I just try and turn my honest feelings into words, colors, shapes, or forms. It doesn't matter the medium - though I am awfully fond of poetry, prose, drawing (colored pencils and ink), animation & film, music & sound. One day I hope to call upon all those disciplines and create my own studio - specializing in storytelling of all kinds.

may I ask what your account name means?

I know the second half refers to Ayumi Hamasaki but what about the other one?

UTAAYU In reply to TheTrueDarkness [2012-03-16 13:18:59 +0000 UTC]

Sorry for the late reply. Haven't been on as frequently. I created my user name by combining my two biggest inspirations. First was, you guessed right, Ayumi Hamasaki :D (Big Grin) The second was Utada Hikaru. Both changed my life and sparked my career, framing my early aesthetic values. And though I've expanded my pool of inspiration a lot since then, they both remain at the core of that

Your work is really good. I don't see a lot of graphic poetry around. I like the way you balance the text with the photographs.

I haven't looked at this in detail and don't know all the legality to the whole process and how to protect yourself with whatever can happen, but I saw this and thought of you.

[link]

I'll see if I can get more information. Let me know if you're not interested, heh. I'm just thinking maybe it's something you might like to do. Take care.

Lol, ya know? Ironically enough, I was doing some reasearch on self-publishing a few months ago and this was one of the companies mentioned. It's definatly something I want to do. It's just been so hard juggling my jobs and other projects that I keep putting it off. But you're right, I should get off my butt and do something with it. I really appreciate your thoughts and consideration. It's really sweet :) (Smile) And it does inspire me to push myself a bit more to get my work published. I'm pretty sure that with self-publication I would retain all copyright, so I could make them into songs too (which I'm dying to do - i just need to practice playing music more). Oh so much to do, so little time. I'll get there though... I hope. Blush Blush Blush Blush Blush

Don't ever give up, and always try to pick up where you left off. Life's too short to start over all the time...I think I'm finally learning that. Obviously, that doesn't apply to everything in life. =) (Smile)

Hey! You've got so many poems now. Publish them! Make a book, I've heard that it doesn't take much. That would be awesome.
