So I've been going by Naoko-san for nearly seven years now...
I believe I've grown a lot since I first joined deviantART, both as an artist and as a person. I want 2013 to be a year for fresh starts, so I thought I should change my username here to reflect that. I'm not gonna be demanding to be called Poe from now on though - lots of you have known me as Naoko for years so I'm not gonna force this sudden change down y'alls throats XD
Recently I've become very interested in what are called art dolls, such as these works below:
I've been working on one of my own for the past week, and it's so much fun! You can expect to see some things along those lines from me in the very near future~
The blog where I'll be posting the progress shots of my projects this year can be found here: darling-bird.tumblr.com/

2023 - Still Alive
Hey guys it's been a while, huh. Dunno how many folks are still here, but if you are, I hope you'll stick around and listen. CW: Mentions of mental disorders, familial abuse, mental and emotional abuse, attempted unaliving, generational trauma Heed the warnings and keep yourself safe friends. -- If I may be blithe for a moment? The world has been GOING TO ABSOLUTE SHIT for a REALLY LONG TIME. 2015 revealed Earth Shattering Secrets about myself. A name for my inner demons and pains. A secret my parents uncovered when I Was Very Young... And instead of seeking professional help, they hoped that prayer and Jesus and spankings would purge it out of me and keep me on the straight and narrow. I've been on the ASD spectrum. My entire life. I didn't know I had a professional diagnosis made as a child until I was 25 years old. Autism was a dirty word in the 90s, something that the Bible belt believed could be managed with prayer and Jesus and spankings. ... There's a lot to unpack
Friendly Reminder That I'm Not Very Active Here!
So if you request something from my gallery to be in your group and you don't hear back from me - well, sorry about that!
I update my tumblr blogs almost daily if you want to keep up with my progress there:
Fandom/general blogging: Hay-needle
Plushies/Art doll/Cosplay progress: Darling-Bird
San Japan and Malindachan
Still alive folks! Again, if any of you need to contact me, I am FAR more active over on Tumblr.
So for the first time in forever, I'm going to have an Artist Alley table at a con! If you're going to be attending San Japan next week, come see me at table C6 and say hi~!
As for the second part of the journal title,
I'm sure a lot of my followers know who ~Malindachan (https://www.deviantart.com/malindachan) is and what a wonderfully talented cosplayer she is. Well she's selling some of her older costumes, so now's your chance to buy some really awesome and well put-together cosplay pieces! Doing so will help her and :iconex-shadow: go to Japan in the spring, so anything helps
Helix Fossil plushies are back in stock!!!
Who knows how long they will stay up this time? There's 10 available so go go go! https://www.etsy.com/listing/179889612/pokemon-helix-fossil-plush-the-almighty
