WHERE WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO VISIT ON YOUR PLANET?

At age 23, Tina Fey was working at a YMCA. At age 23, Oprah was fired from her first reporting job.  At age 24, Stephen King was working as a janitor and living in a trailer. 

At age 27, Vincent Van Gogh failed as a missionary and decided to go to art school.   At age 28, J.K. Rowling was a suicidal single parent living on welfare.

At age 28, Wayne Coyne ( from The Flaming Lips) was a fry cook. At age 30, Harrison Ford was a carpenter.  At age 30, Martha Stewart was a stockbroker.  At age 37, Ang Lee was a stay-at-home-dad working odd jobs. Julia Child released her first cookbook at age 39, and got her own cooking show at age 51. Vera Wang failed to make the Olympic figure skating team, didn’t get the Editor-in-Chief position at Vogue, and designed her first dress at age 40. Stan Lee didn’t release his first big comic book until he was 40. Alan Rickman gave up his graphic design career to pursue acting at age 42. Samuel L. Jackson didn’t get his first movie role until he was 46.

Morgan Freeman landed his first movie role at age 52. Kathryn Bigelow only reached international success when she made The Hurt Locker at age 57. Grandma Moses didn’t begin her painting career until age 76. Louise Bourgeois didn’t become a famous artist until she was 78. Whatever your dream is, it is not too late to achieve it. You aren’t a failure because you haven’t found fame and fortune by the age of 21. Hell, it’s okay if you don’t even know what your dream is yet. Even if you’re flipping burgers, waiting tables or answering phones today, you never know where you’ll end up tomorrow. Never tell yourself you’re too old to make it. 

Never tell yourself you missed your chance. 

Never tell yourself that you aren’t good enough. 

You can do it. Whatever it is.

THIS IS SO ME 😱

Besides knowing your anatomy from head to toe, what’s often overlooked is the energetic flow, or movement it conforms to.

Throughout the structure of our body we find rhythm, and it’s what determines whether or not you’re able to bring your characters to life on the page.

Here’s an example that describes what I’m talking about in a visual sense. This especially applies to the dynamic poses you’ll draw for your Comic Book characters, and will help them to maintain their fluidity.

So there's this dude I've been friends with. Well, not anymore, he straight-out went mute and blocked me a week or two ago. I kinda have a feeling why, but he didn't explain it to me since... you know... he didn't type a word to me.

Besides all the mindfuckery and madness this caused, the biggest problem to me is that I think I might be in love with him. I'm not sure if this is what you call it.

He made me want to be better, I want to move in together with him ever since we brought it up and he was like 'ye sure why not', even more after he visited me... I keep on being reminded of him, I keep on wanting to talk to him, get to know his beloveds and all...

I hope I'm just confused again, like before.
