For the past 13 years, i have been farting around wiht the concept for a comicbook. I have like 70 characters developed, their histories and the basic storyline. My art sucks right now and i think my need for perfection has kept me from starting this project in ernest. I must say that i am frustrated with myself and the lack of progress i have made.

My lost passion
3 years ago
I used to make up little stories then draw and ink them. My notebooks,portfolios,napkins,anything were covered with them. It seems that I just gave up on them or fell into the mundane habit of spending all my time doing “grownup” things(i.e. grocery shopping,watching telly,knitting in my rocker,etc.) I didn’t like my seeming loss of inspiration but I didn’t seem to have the motivation,anymore. Where had my creativity gone? then,not too long ago I read I caught a stomach bug and was bedridden for two days(gasp!).After all the girly magazines ran out I started reading old comics like JTHM and Lenore and it all just came back to me. I love these so much and I want to make my own. Coming up with ideas,writing scripts, drawing,lettering,inking;I love it all,and one should always do what makes one happy,right? Right. So after work I’m going to buy some ink and quills and all the other accoutrements of comic making. I must say, I’m excited. Wish me luck.
