what's holding me back is drawing 2-3 pages of a dc graphic novel every day (my actual job)

I've been feeling mildly insane for the last few weeks because I have a full fledged aesthetic for John in my mind, but i can't write or draw fast enough? John is bossa nova and jazz and so much carole king. #okjohnrich youtu.be/Ej8RhiSv2-4?feature=shared This song! But also Astrud Gilberto!

me: I don't get the rich guy trope also me: (writing) and now this millionaire hockey player will buy a college student an industrial oven

I never truly understood the Powerful Rich Guy trope in romance fiction, but then I thought about Tyler buying John a watch and I went crosseyed.

I'm working on chapters 6 & 7 and maybe I *should* just finish the rest of the novel and announce it? Officially? AO3-posting has been so fun! But I'm impatiently ready to share it when it's not a WIP? I need everyone to read about my little guy

I think people should read my funny gay very in-progress story. IMHO!! John Rich & The Big Picture word count: 38k/80k tags: enemies to lovers, enemies to friends to lovers, banter, snark, quipping, new york city, romantic comedy archiveofourown.org/works/60519199/chapters/154500226

John & Tyler 🥰❤️✏️ John's wardrobe has 3 modes. (1) a suit (2) a sweater (3) wearing extremely old Garf T-shirts.

Jeff/Tom = alien/astronaut. 🪐🚀💞

JRBP should end up being ~80K words. The first 40K is John in blunt denial and the last 40K is John pining, hating himself, lighting candles at his Garfield shrine, praying for tyler to hold him in his beefy arms ✏️

jeff martian serving space cunt apparently

I thought the premise was lovely.

it is my goal to make my gay metropolitan cartoon oc more popular than the random racist country star he shares a name with????????? just to MESS up the SEO

woah look at him.......................WAOAOA,...... auhg,,

so flippin' john rich pilled UGH ✏️✏️✏️ #johnrich

it is extremely bold to say that John Rich takes place in New York when we never go north of midtown and then to Brooklyn...TWICE.

WHAT! THIS IS INCREDIBLE. JOHN RICH COSPLAY. I'M YELLING. ✏️😸

As an Australian actor who stars in blockbuster action movies, Tyler is desperately trying to join a revival of The Music Man but his reps are like "STOP. ONE MUSICAL EVERY THREE YEARS. YOU AGREED TO THIS." (Sprays him with water.)

john: so, actually, having an actor call you "dramatic" is a little patronizing? #johnrich

I feel like I got in a car on a roadtrip to Solar Trials City but it required passing through the Valley of John Rich and i'm like "holy shit there's some extremely good yaoi here"

my wanting these two characters to disgustingly bone is now everyone's problem

john: (visibly having a meltdown) tyler: very hard to read that jonathan rich

John drawing Bitty and he's thinking "what on earth is *wrong* with this guy's eyes. they're freaking huge. it's like he has a Big Eye Filter on but it's real life. Dear God. And his body is like this dense chestnut."

every time i draw john his eyes get bigger and his face gets rounder until he's just

As a rule, John hates crushes and finds them painful, and is just kind gritting his teeth and trying to get through this collaboration without dying

Listen, JOHN RICH is practice for SOLAR TRIALS because it does involve me creating the same earnest blonde man with an accent but in a different font. (whispers) HEY! THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME.

definitely half an hour late to this figure drawing class on the lower east side

hey how often do you guys openly weep while watching Céline Dion - Hymne à l'amour (Live aux Jeux Olympiques de Paris 2024 / Live from the Olympic Games) it's like once a week for me!!!!!!!

you ever think about your novel characters like way too much and it's also march madness

John Rich exists because I can't find MM/BL that is first and foremost, HILARIOUS, and also has my favorite trope nerd/jock. I NEED for this to exist. I'm pitching it as The Devil Wears Prada meets Sex in The City but starring Bertie Wooster.

need more people to be reading john rich and the big picture on ao3 so i can talk to people abt this cartoonist falling in love with a hunky australian actor (and the commentary on parasocial relationships, the cult of Celebrity, and the spot-on depiction of internet culture...)
