At the age of 34, I remembered my dream, so I decided to create my own comic—or manga, or manhwa; call it whatever you like.

    Thank you so much!!

    Knowing that someone likes it gives me the strength to keep moving forward and finish this story.

    There is still a lot of work ahead. The world has a huge amount of lore that needs to be revealed.

    I stopped drawing back in school—I don’t even know why… And now, at 34, I’ve decided to make my dream come true. AHah, maybe it’s a midlife crisis. )))))

      Well, I for one am glad that you’ve decided to revisit your creative side :)

      As you say, it’s a pretty big project ahead of you, so take care to not “bin it” over a minor setback.

      If you get overwhelmed by the sheer size of the project, remember that a lot of people producing illustrative art (even the professional and famous) will often split their work up into Part 1, Part 2 etc - so no harm in releasing single chapters if it makes the process more manageable - and additional positive feedback at each step might carry you through the next bit.

      Anyway, if it’s a midlife crisis, it’s a good one :)
