Getting-to-know-you questions meme from findingfriends

The intro meme at findingfriends  looked fun and substantive, so here goes!

Is there an interesting story behind your username?

I was 10 or 11, I was coming up with Sailor Moon OCs, I flipped to the “list of mythology topics” page in what must’ve been the family World Book Encyclopedia, and picked half a dozen names basically at random. One of them ended up being Sailor Ptah.

…you want to see some art, right? Of course you do.

Classic!

(This was drawn on the back of…some kind of school worksheet, I think? I wasn’t getting sketchbooks yet. You can see the backwards text through the scan.)

So I was “SailorPtah” everywhere for a lot of years. Eventually swapped the “sailor” part for my first name, and now I’m “ErinPtah” everywhere.
