Yeah...

I'm sick of Sonic....

I'll probably stay on this site though, since I don't mind the community here. But I think I'm done with the Sonic fanbase. Well, I don't mean the fanbase really (although the fanbase is a little insane), I just don't care much about Sonic anymore.

Yeah, the only reason why I cared about the Sonic franchise in the first place was because I liked Knuckles. But I can't just obsess over one fictional character that I do not own the rights to forever. I mean, he'll probably still be my favourite character, but I need to let go of this franchise. I don't really want to obsess over any franchise. (To be honest I was always more of a Pokemon and Mario fan anyway even though I never drew them or anything). I just want to go back to my old stuff, like how it used to be. And actually get myself somewhere, rather than writing weird, creepy fanfiction which won't get me anywhere.

Ever since I started Lippies, I got myself in a trap. Because I started drawing all my OCs (not related to Sonic) in the Sonic style. No offense to anyone here but I'm not even the biggest fan of the Sonic style. I mean, have you seen the way I draw the Sonic characters? Knuckles has a much longer nose for one thing. And they look furrier. Also their bodies are a bit different. But back to what I was saying, '''ever since I started Lippies about four years ago, I haven't really written a good, succesful story that ISN'T a fanfic. '''I used to write my own stuff all the time! And I never used to get the "your drawings look like Sonic" comment until then!

You know what, I'm going to go take down some of the pictures in my house and maybe even some of the ones on my wall which look like Sonic characters. And if you're wondering, no I'm not getting rid of Paws, but if anything, MAYBE I'll turn him into an OC. Maybe all my Sonic FCs will become OCs. Maybe I'll rewrite Lippies but with my own characters.

Speaking of which, SpyroBiel, if you see this, can I make Spark an OC then instead of an FC, or would you rather I left him a FC?
