thingies today

making some progress on my comic's story after sulking😸 I forgot all about how refreshing it is to cry my eyes out and now I feel like I can focus again for the first time in a long while.

im trying to outline the general story and also working on expanding/ introducing my extended cast and I want everyone to know someone in one way or another. I don't usually tell my friends about what I write about but I do share some of the art/mini comics and introductions/trivia about my characters without revealing too much of the plot! my favourite thing to do lately is to watch various different films/shows to try and digest the writing and follow its example. I currently have three acts (1/2 mostly complete, but not written down and im stuck on act three and the conclusion). I've been looking up how many acts I can put in or if it's better in parts because the focuses for each act is different.

im also working on better developing an art style for the comic by researching my artist idols and reading through a lot of art books! im trying to make something more like myself but im getting stuck on the style because mine is usually more cutesy and the subject of the stories gets kinda grim and im not sure if I'll be able to convey it right. 

I've been holding off on writing for this for years because I always want to improve everywhere before I can even think of starting and its seriously holding me back because I can't bear to make a mistake on something I like sososoososo much but AHHH I wanna write and draw so much its sgdhjaskjk. I usually keep it all in my head but when I snap out of it, I get bummed out about how little I have of it and im really determined to materialize it all into reality at a slug's pace😤😤😤 I have a playlist made for it and its vvvvvvvvvvvv motivating ok bye
