@vessel: ah gross lol, i don't think i've seen that around here
i think bc voltra is smaller, it's closer and ppl are more invested in the community
and the staff seem to really care as well :3

aw that's too bad about your tablet, i hope it'll work again someday lol
that's cool ^^ are you doing the zine thing where you fold a piece of paper into eighths?

btw - the blimp thing on the home page gives u daily freebies/volts :3 it doesn't work the first day but you should click on it tmr!

Welcome to Voltra !! I hope you like it here as much as I do ^_^ I know I've been a member of other sites and they were... toxic, to say the least =v=;

What kind of poetry do you write?? :0

@xvz: aww hell yeah i love small communities, i think that was def a big problem in all the other sites

and yeah i'm gonna do that lil fold thing but i also wanna put out different volumes and then combine them

@0v7: ya its really hard to find sites that aren't full of toxic assholes
i like the style of this one too; its cute

i mostly write about trauma tho! so its all pretty dark lol

"You've had too much of the digital love..."


@vessel: I like this site's style too !!
Tbh I think that's a valid way to process trauma!!
I used to draw how the topic made me feel, at least, until my motivation to actually draw ran out ;v;

@vessel: that would be cool ^^
do you picture it being all poetry/text, or would you want to add art / visuals / images to it?

i haven't made one in a while, maybe i will do one this week too ^^
i feel like i'm running out of things to do at home and could use like a project or something

@vessel: ooh what do you usually make art of? i hope it works out for you!!
i wish i had a scanner, i've been thinking of getting a printer/scanner to make stuff with

haha they're usually not about anything, i sometimes use them as mini sketchbooks with ramblings
i was thinking a theme could be fun though!

@xvz: i mostly just sketch and doodle, i rarely have anything planned out. once i get some stuff scanned imma set up a thread in the art gallery forum >:)

i'm setting up themes for each volume of my zine im gonna make, like family/trauma/recovery - i made a little 6 pg one as practice for my partner for their 28th birthday and that was the first zine i did
