The day has come. One year since I introduced the beginning of a friendship between some twins and a tanuki guy that would unexpectedly change my life… woah.
I can’t really describe why, but this project has been near and dear to me since I conceived it, and more after it came to the public eye. Although it didn’t gain such audience (I guess) and lasted little (I was impatient lol), nothing could stop my affection for it. And now that I’m finally on that spot, I’m closer to make one of my dreams come true.
But the road isn’t all roses and rainbows. Writing slice of life is actually a very complicated genre to write for me by its unpredictability and variety, so it makes me beat my own brains out as someone who needs anticipation before certain events. And don’t forget comics too, they require lots of knowledge. Believe me or not, I used to draw them more often when I was a kid, but after I began taking art seriously, I completely stayed unfocused on them for a long time. Unfortunately as a result (of growing up too), my confidence descended, and trust me, it can be terrible to deal with.
But even despite those obstacles, I believe it will be released, sooner or later. Now, you might doubt my words, but trust me, they’re true. When I was younger, I dreamed of publishing my works to the world. And did it happen? Yes! And this basically the same, but with working on projects, except it’s taking a good while.
As of my progress, I had finished the script for the first issue a few months ago, but I’m going to rewrite it to see if I can improve my skills. And how did I come up with that idea, you may ask? In the midst of looking for more advice despite being an experienced writer with some pre-learned advice from my brain and experiences, I couldn’t find any YT channels that I’d follow because I doubted if they were professional or not, and part of this is due to the fact that I’m a visually oriented person as nonsensical as it might sound. So what did I do? Analyze Hazbin Hotel’s writing sins (https://youtu.be/8J9LDJsbWdk?si=3LqOIuqoi0mUsrGR). I don’t exactly know how I got to do this, but I just did; and ever since I wrote it, it became my go-to writing advice for good storytelling. Now don’t scream at me, I know very well you’re thirsty for improving, but no worries! I’m planning on translating the document to English (I actually wrote it in my language lmao, that’s why) so you can level up your skills too.
And that’s all! I guess what you can do now just support me and the rest of my endeavors and stay tuned for updates…
While you wait, here’s an Osamu doodle from therapy I did back in June. Pretty thought-provoking, right?
