A Journey I'm Trying to Understand

I have always had a somewhat strained relationship with my creativity. This goes way back, even as kids. I was diagnosed with a learning disability, dyslexia to start with, in grade two, and was told my focus should be on making that side of me stronger. When I should have been told, "Yes, your life will be harder, but this is something that makes you who you are. So let's combine your strengths with your challenges," but instead I was told to put my creativity on the back burner. 

Ever since I was small, I loved art, seeing people's drawings and creations, flipping through books with illustrations and classical paintings, even manga. If it had art, I loved it. I also loved stories and would make up stories in my head. If we were to pass by a house, I would make up a story of who lives there, usually with a magical twist. But never felt like I was allowed to put them down on paper, stories, or drawings.

Now I'm a 30-year-old adult who has taught myself to do so much and want to know combine my creative interests into one full thing. I have a few ideas and one project I am working on. One of them is a journaling RPG game I am writing and will be illustrating. And possibly some small zines or comics. I'm not sure who I want to share them with, will have to see what time and research does.
