I meet a few nice people, but the majority have been soul crushing. Aw I appreciate it. I have readers too but only one who is actually enthusiastic about anything and lets me know on occasion. I have been working hard for six years trying to get my manga off the ground. I have had to deal with art thieves, tracers, people stealing my character designs, people selling my character designs, scam artists, insane people, people who think a side part time job is meant to feed them and pay their insurance bills, people who think it's ok for that artist to be selling my character and his design. I have been sexually harassed, bombarded with hate by artists who think it's once again, ok for an artist to sell something they may have drawn but they did not come up with and it is not their IP.
At the same time I have met a few nice people who have helped out, but in the end I truly want what's best for my manga series and I tried to look once again for an artist on here, that hasn't been working out.
I wanna do a short web comic but I know advertising on here will just get haters.
I feel empty and dead when I come on here sometimes, like, what am I doing wrong for all this to keep happening? Over and over again weird things but there are some good things, very very very few though.
I hurt thinking about all of it mixed into one massive orchestra of agony and pain.
I don't want to give up though.
It's the only reason I came back after the guy that had responded to an ad I had about wanting to make a web comic for phantom specters that was harassing me tried to stop me from telling people on here what he was doing.
I can't give up even though the haters ended up making me cry for days a while ago.
I don't want to give up, even though I feel so tired of it all I feel like I will never escape the Everfall of screams and find the audience that will support my manga and stan my large cast of beautiful boys.
