This past weekend I was apart of PAC CON. For the first time as a comic book writer, I got to sit on panels and talk about what I do, why I do it, and how amazing it is.
I felt a little out of place at first. I was on panels with writers. People who write novels, graphic novels, web comics, or fan fiction. Why was I up there talking about the two comics and several screenplays I have done? What gives me the right to be up there too?
I started writing comics because it was fun, I got asked to, and I felt like I was apart of something bigger than me. I have kept writing because I genuinely love it. I would absolutely love to get a job writing for an indie comic publisher. I feel like I would fit in there.
It's so crazy to think of how life has changed for me over the years.
I wanted to direct horror movies. I wanted to be behind the camera. Now I want to write them, make my story alive on the screen. I want to write comics, and be apart of this nerd culture that I hold so close to my heart.
I have a lot to learn, but I know I'm on the right track.
