Storyteller

A glowing profile silhouette of the artist. Sparkling flowers bloom where their brain should be. Text reads: "Though I dream of sharing the many stories I have stashed away in my head... I often worry that I'm not the right person to tell them."
Water overflows into a basin, spilling everywhere. Text reads: "Perhaps my passion overflows the basin of my skill and the story I tell falls short of what I dreamed it would be."
The artist lies in a ginormous bed, visibly anxious. Text reads: "At night, the question echoes: 'What if the potential of this story is wasted on me, a total amateur?'"
First panel: Comic pages are scattered. The artist is holding one, looking directly at the viewer. Text reads: "Well then, it's wasted. So what?"
Second panel: More comic pages are scattered next to an empty mug. Text reads: "It's not the worst thing... that could happen."
Third panel: An empty chair by a desk, lit by a single lamp. Text reads: "The worst thing might be that it never comes to life at all."
Two splotches of paint contain illustrations. The upper one shows the artist reaching towards a bright star. The lower one shows the artist, upside down, bright colors flowing from her hair and around her. Text reads: Besides, it's more like this story found you rather than the other way around, right? The themes, the characters, the journey... all of it is born from how you experience the world."
The artist floats in space, surrounded and partially covered by overlapping colorful shapes. Text reads: "It's the culmination of your interaction with every other person, and all your unique hopes and dreams."
Blank figures stand in rows, a single one is colorful and filled with stars. Text reads: "You worry that you're not the right person to tell this story, but the truth is--you are the only one who can tell this story."
A starry sky. At the bottom, the artist sits at her desk, drawing on a tablet. Text reads: "And after this, there will still be more stories to tell. Just write this one first."

storyteller

sometimes I forget that I'm just a teenager writing a webcomic in my spare time, so I shouldn't hold myself to the same standards as, say, a feature film with an entire team of professional writers, or Hiromu Arakawa. Writing flawed stories is okay, and even necessary in order to write better ones :)

(if you want to read aforementioned amateur webcomic...)

It wrinkles my brain that Jupiter’s moon Europa has oceans that are sixty miles deep, while Earth’s oceans only reach seven miles deep at most. I’m willing to bet good money that there’s life in Europa’s oceans. Like five bucks. You hear me, NASA? I bet you five bucks that there’s life on Europa… Now that there’s money and reputation on the line, I bet they send a mission there real quick.
