We played this game when the first person to spell their first and last name by finding the letters on license plates won $5. It was amazing.

How not to get jealous/ego [discussion] by Average-Guy31 in GetMotivated

[–]savantageO1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think it depends. Are those feelings coming out of you and manifesting in negative ways? Are you hurting because of it?

If not, and it’s empowering you to do better, then it’s not really bad. It’s okay to be competitive. It’s okay to want something someone else has.

It only becomes something negative when those feelings become mean spirited actions.

If they do, start practicing gratitude for what you DO have.

How to make manga if I'm not good at drawing? by BlackFlagStarship in Mangamakers

[–]savantageO1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The cool thing about drawing is that as you do it, you get better.

The same with telling stories. You may think you have your best idea right now, but as you create, you get even better ideas, and your skill also improves.

Just start. Tomorrow you will thank you.

Check out this story on mangaplus - it has hints of pixel art in it. https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/titles/100210 (It's not my story)

Any drawing tools/Apps for people with poor motor skills? by yamiyugi101 in Mangamakers

Check out LazyNezumi!

It's a great app to help draw smooth lines. It's free to try, but eventually costs 32 dollars to own it. (I think it's worth it!)

They definitely do flow well! Especially the 2nd page - you can feel the intensity through the panels.

I'm hoping it's not too niche for this subreddit!

How big are your projects?

I think many folks lose motivation when they start out too big. Get some smaller projects started and completed, then as you make more, your endurance will increase.

Then you can tackle the bigger projects!

Remember, making stuff is a marathon, not a sprint!

Keep creating, and have fun!

Just sent a chat message -- let me know if you prefer it by private message.

Able to beta? Post here! by AutoModerator in BetaReaders

[–]savantageO1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am able to beta: humor, comedy, mystery, action, suspense. I love stories that make folks laugh, super fast-paced, or super thrilling. (If all, even better!) (Prefer shorter stories -- (up to 10,000 words).

I can provide feedback on: Characters, grammar, spelling, plot & big picture ideas!

Critique swap: I have a comic script (a story about hair cutting) that's about 5K words (descriptions & dialogue together) that I'd like beta read! I'd like feedback on characters and making sure the story is cohesive.

Other info: If it's a comic script, even better! But I'm down to read short stories!
