I think my red thread (title drop!) is a general sense of wonder that I always appreciate within the media I consume; additionally, I enjoy expansive, lively worlds and characters. My motive is essentially attempting to create that kind of world, scene, character, whatever with my own hands. My stories usually attempt to stray mostly into fantasy, but they always keep some earthly element to them as a ground base. My stories and ideas always remain authentic to me because they represent what I like to see in media and what I like to create in media. I always put care and enough into my creations so that I am proud of them, and so that I can feel the sense of euphoric wonder I get seeing other peoples' amazing creations. As I learn and develop my skills, I am confident that my ability to fulfill that goal will meet and surpass my expectations, but also that my abilities in world-crafting will expand as well. I might be able to create worlds that are so far past our own, characters with so much depth they feel real, and scenes that one could mistake to be ripped out of an alternate reality.
