Don't Lose Your Way

today, not only have I confirmed to myself how bad I am at following directions, but its also making me question what I actually want to do with my life. I don't know if you know this, but writing is hard, and so is drawing. And since I seriously need help doing the writing part, i don't know if I'll ever make anything coherent out of my story. That makes me frustrated.

I've known this for a while, that my biggest weakness when it comes to writing is dialogue. I can't seem to make a conversation sound natural. To be fair, I'm pretty bad at making conversation in real life, so its no big surprise. That's why I'm really glad to have my editor, because he helps me with a lot of things. BUTJESNOTHERERIGHTNOWISHE?!?! He always helps me bounce idea off of him and gives good direction when it comes to the progression of a story.

without him around, i feel like I'm only running at 65% capacity, rather than my normal of 85+. Though i am finishing a lot more drawings, I'm only half satisfied with them. Maybe i just need to try harder or focus more. I don't want to give up, i just don't know which direction to go.

maybe I'll start by going and getting tempura. . .
