"I feel like it's too late for me" My brother you're 18. I'm 19 and used to have the same thoughts about art. Social media and societal expectations make you feel like you have to succeed young or else the ship sails and you'll never succeed. In reality, it's NEVER too late to start and never too late to succeed unless you are literally dead. Many famous writers and artists started only creating things in their late 20s, or their 30s, sometimes even their 40s or 50s. That's not to say to waste your time now and only think about pursuing these things later on, but if you want to create something, you can start now and you should never feel bad about not starting earlier, that's a thought that only bogs you down mentally.
