Some Thoughts: Which Blog?

Currently struggling between here or WP blog..

It's because WP blog which I started near end of November 2019, getting lack of traffic, and I have to promote the link almost every time. Posting on my IG story, LinkedIn, or Twitter.. It's getting to 0 if I'm not promoting a post, after writing.. It's kind of frustrating since I moved to WP as I thought well, Blogspot dropping off after Google+ was down.. Found WP, and traffic was good at until they changed things with Jetpack in early 2023.. I think I'm really want to share what I'm writing...?

So... What actually with me?

I started to feel frustrated with all this algorithm things. Feel like we as user nowadays have to do double, which, aren't technology and social media is to make things easier? Like... Now users need to do more, than before. It's not supposed to be this way as we getting advanced in technology.. I think it supposed to be like before all of this algorithm things, where we have to do videos or content just to gain traffic.. Should be just stay as it is. Not users need to chase time or hustle for content..

I think I back in here if this is the just where the traffic still considered "ok".

Not sure yet but to promote every single time by posting here and there - started to effect me..

Book: Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK By Aqila Masri

I finally finished reading "Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK" by Aqila Masri (Overthinking But Acted OK) , published by IMAN Publication, last October. And let's see what my thoughts on this one. First of all, my view is just as from an artist, crafter and blogger, and as a reader... When this book published, to be honest I got caught by the title. I didn't plan on to get it like seriously, because I have this feeling to put aside what I can relate to the title. The word - "overthinking"... But as time past, I started to have the image of this book in mind, and it's repeating. So I feel it and said, "I need to have it" with wondering what the topics will be within. It was more like a calling from the book I could say. And early last month - September - I got it. First of all, the cover illustration - pretty. I love how the choice of the style from the artist. The work is beautiful. And give the visual to what's the book about. At the same tim...

New!

I started blogging as long ago, But, here I am, again, with new page. I deleted my old one, but regret it now (haha). I shouldn't have deleted it. Instead, I just should have updated it!. Feel really bad now ugh. But too late.. So I'll be blogging same as in old one, but no artwork stuff related - I just wanna put out something that simple but uhmm not so simple, from writing side (haha). So, I hope I can keep up (!).

Book: Asrama By Muhammad Fatrim

On January this year, FIXI emailed me for a commission. It took me few minutes to accept the offer. As the result, almost a week later I received their books together with one I got commissioned for last year - my first one from other author. I got 4 books in total, 3 of them by another author. I know, I need to read them 3, started with the first one, best selling ASRAMA by Muhammad Fatrim. And here I'm going to put some of my thought about it. For first, I'm honoured to be part of the book, for the new cover I got commission for last January, and thank you so much for the opportunity FIXI. This was my most challenging one when come to illustrate for a cover. And while in process, I got little bit pressure than before. Since it needs to be 'girls' vibe and feel but dark. I did my best although a bit I feel like if I can deliver it much better.. But, so far, most fans and FIXI's family like it, I'm ok with that. Alhamdulillah.. The new cover on the right in red...
