I use SAI because it wasn't nearly as expensive but my friend uses this one called Manga Studios (it goes under a different name I think when you buy the program versus trial version) and she makes some pretty wicked stuff. Oh man and good luck with guitar! Never could learn an instrument. Do you play any other one? Well aside from writing and drawing I like painting when I'm able to get my hands on some paints. I like reading about history and naturally that runs off in the things I write, haha. Foreign languages are also a hobby, I'm a junior I think and a German major so I'm just trying to push through school. Too bad I'm not going to Germany, honestly because I'd be just fine there if English wasn't an option. I'd love to learn Russian or Swedish perhaps in the future. What are you studying?
