Umm, I wasn't even born until 05' AND YOU WERE ALREADY MAKING STORIES BY THEN?!
Ooh, so it's like Pearl Harbor x Attack on Titan, sorta? Place gets bombed, has to rebuild, and monsters/other mean ppl trying to kill the human race? Regardless, it sounds mega interesting (did I just say mega?) and your series all take place in the same world, which is really cool.
mine has a funny story I guess!
I'm talking about Black Wings; I wanted to draw a tatoo of Lucifer one of my Bohemian's characters would wear (Bohemian is the first comic I started drawing). He went to a christian school so he hated religion 
and had an obsession with lucifer and the demons. I drew Lucifer based on this characters' look and also in Saint Young men's Lucifer, which I think is totally cool. My boyfriend and I decided that the tatoo had to be inspired in pin-up girls but being a boy because fuck gender roles. And somehow he became an attractive and funny character and with my bf we roleplayed him and started roleplaying other demons and then we started developing all the story ahahaha
this is how my biggest idea started 
Back in 2011, just before Christmas, I was released from compulsory military service. It's a thing every man has to go through in this part of the world. I had little direction or any certain plans that would motivate me. But after reading the Black Magician trilogy by Trudi Canavan, I started scribbling about my own silly little fantasy world.
As my state of mind was not the best I simply dreamt, waking up somewhere else, in some other time and slowly bit by bit the world I escaped to became a whole. And during that time I also discovered trailer music/film soundtracks, so the scenes in my mind became even more vivid. I recall listening to these two songs a lot. I know, I know... Anime 
Half a year or so since I was released from the military, I discovered the Malazan Book of the Fallen series by Steven Erikson. After reading that, I just had to put the world in my mind into writing, even if only for myself. And that's how Beyond the Void was born, and 8-9 years after I'm still struggling with it, refusing to give up, although I constantly wonder if I should.
Whoaa, your story came about because of a tattoo idea?! That's so freaking cool.
That must've been a cool roleplay, as well.
Oh wow, I applaud you for your service to your country (I assume you are not from America since the USA does not have conscription, I believe). I'm glad that your story helped you through rough times (i also like anime, lol)
NO YOU SHOULD NOT GIVE UP if you put 8 - 9 years of effort into your story, then giving up would mean that you've wasted 8-9 years for nothing. ALWAYS BELIEVE IN YOURSELFFF I know you can do it 
The premise for my setting essentially boils down to "everything exists, and on a statistical basis that means total madness" - something that got a bit of a rough showing in my previous writing. In the current project, the mentality was that's a bit hard to illustrate, let's view this from the standpoint of a guy whose job it is to explore the manifold places of reality, and a few character-borrows later a scaffolding came together. Ultimately it comes down to a desire to dive into "what is possible?" and hopefully give some inspiration, or even just provoke interesting thoughts.
Hehe. Yeah, I'm an old. There wasn't really anywhere great for serial stuff back then, so I had originally written it like there was a rogue reporter putting together their own newspaper, combining all the series as new reports coming in to him. Posted it to Livejournal back in the day, hosted it on my own website for awhile, but I think I'm going to be happy bringing it here piece by piece.
As for the Pearl Harbor X Attack of Titan... kind of? Attack on Titan is a fair comparison with the walls always under siege, but there's anthropomorphic animal people called The Sleepers are at the land based walls - human bodies possessed by animal spirits wanting vengeance on humans for ruining the world, by water, The Judges are attacking. They're previously pacifist humans that lived beneath the sea until earthquakes ruined their home and they were turned into fish people servants of ancient sea monsters like Leviathan and Kraken. There's the Council of Kismet, a council of death deities collaborating on how to finish off humanity. Inside the city, there's a cult of cyborgs. The wall outside the entertainment district was breached and had a new wall put around it, so that's where exiles get put, and the prison district got revamped into the entertainment district. Fae creatures and demons have inserted themselves into various government positions. There may or may not be dragons dominating the internet after converting themselves into pure energy.
It's definitely a kitchen sink setting.
Hmm well I guess if it's fanfic, it's pretty obvious where the idea came from. XD As for my comic tho, I got the idea while thinking about Percy Jackson, and I wanted to write about angel/demon shit so yeah. Also wanted to write something that's not fanfic lol
LOL yes Percy Jackson was my personality for second grade, ngl. I like how you wrote it as demiHUMANS and not demigods. It makes them seem a lot easier to relate to, because us people are hardly gods T_T
HAHAHA THIS IS SO FUNNY
This is very cool, idk how y'all can draw so well and come up with stuff this funny T_T I always say I'm funny even tho I'm not~
My comic1 how was it made? What was the motive? I used to play Dragon Age Origins. The idea came while playing the game. Somehow it just formed in my head. What exactly is the comic about? That vengeance is not such a good thing. It is possible to find true love in the midst of war and that it is possible to reunite with a conflicted family.
I have never hear of Dragon Age Origins.
I looked it up and it looks so majestic, lol. Yess, as much as how sweet vengeance is, it's not worth the consequences you'll have to face.
while it's not a biography and the things the MC is going through haven't happened to me personally (or I'd be in jail) everything in it is based on or inspired by stuff that happened to me or people close to me. it's a story I've had since 2011 that I put o hold for a really REALLY long time, and it's a story that helps me work through the shit that happened when I was younger, like therapy I guess.
A few months back I was feeling rather bored of my current finished novels and figured that it was nothing short of a great time to start something now. Somehow, on a Wattpad forum, someone had this new book cover that was a premade. It was honestly nothing special, but it felt like that quick starter I needed.
I decided that I really wanted to pursue something different from everyone else. That's how I decided on the idea that we will be following a walking-dead girl. I mean, I don't read many stories about strigoi's let alone people who have been turned into them. I spent maybe three hours of plotting/searching for a monster that would be doable for my story. When I learned about strigoi's, I knew it would be perfect. Y'know?
I'm rambling, but yeah. Basically boredom + new book cover = sudden inspiration for a new novel.
I started my story “fields” as a prose novel on wattpad. It was modestly popular, but more then that, it was really fun to work on. I didn’t really have a solid plot, in fact, the story of a mechanic from the future who falls into a wormhole and is transported to a bizarre other planet was mostly written as i went along. Even that premise sort of changed and mutated as I kept writing and re writing. I left it alone for awhile to try writing other things, realized i loved making comics, and began making them. After my last project fell through i decided why wait, and came back to my old story. It’s totally different now. I draw more from Robin Hood (if Robin hod was queer and written by Douglas Adams) then the “Alice in Wonderland” vibe I felt my old version had.
