The trailer of my Webcomic
Please give it a chance! It's just 40s but the voice actors did an amazing job.
Bonded

About the story:
Winter wedding ❄️

Not a fanart, but I wanted to share the cover I made for the comic I am drawing (not sure when it will be out...)
It's a project I started in 2020 and I decided to redraw after a hiatus c:

She pressed a trembling hand to her chest as if that would do anything to slow her racing heart.
His eyes were crazed, darting around to look at the shadows of the room.
Their limbs felt like jelly, afraid that they would collapse at any moment.
She was utterly frozen. Her body cut all communication with her mind, and no matter how much her brain screamed for her to run she was immobilized in terror.
He had a tight knot forming in his stomach.
They couldn't breathe. They were totally suffocated by fear and it felt like a heavy weight was pressing down on their chest.
Dread clouded her thinking. She walked around like she was in a daze, relying solely on muscle memory to get her down the hallway.
His hands were trembling so badly that he couldn't do anything and his terror made it impossible to focus.
Their throat was dry. No matter how many times they swallowed it did nothing to relieve the uncomfortable feeling.
The salty taste of fear lingered on her lips.
His muscles screamed at him to leave, but he couldn't bring himself to move. He stared forwards hauntingly.
They ran. They ran faster than their legs had ever carried them, adrenaline taking over all of their senses. It felt like they were being chased, but there was no way for them to know for certain. They were too afraid to turn around.
It felt like her heart was about to burst from her ribcage.
show, dont tell: little decoration quirks that can say a lot your character
decor that's just a little too dated
dead and framed butterflies and other insects all over the walls
lots of potted plants
or maybe nothing but a dead cactus by the window
or all the plants are dead
pictures of friends and families
lots of mirrors—or maybe none at all
clock that ran out of battery long ago
shoebox under the bed with broken stuff that they can’t bring themself throw away
those cat shelf climbing walls
post-it notes with reminders on walls, doors, cabinets, …
whiteboard with doodles in many different styles from the visitors over time
unopened bottles of celebratory alcohol
cracked window
not a single pair of matching cuttlery
mostly empty fridge, but fully-stocked emergency shelves
swear jar
chair facing the window instead of the room
self-made artwork & diy decor
damage on the walls from the wallpaper being ripped off
photo albums with empty spots from images that were removed
decoration still in its packaging
beautiful but ineffective kitchen
religious altars and shrines

Tips for Describing Sensory Experiences
Sensory Focus: describing every single experience is going to overwhelm the reader. instead focus on those that stand out or actually advance the story.
Show, don‘t tell… unless you should tell: yes, usually showing is better than telling, but not everything needs to be packaged in wonderful words and metaphors. if it has no grander impact other than context or setting the mood, you can just say that the character is cold
Narrative Focus: depending on the narrator, the focus might be on different things. This can be influenced by interests, fears, emotional state, experience, ... (For example, someone who enjoys art/architectue/ fashion/... will focus on that particular aspect of their surroundings...)
Noticeable Abnormality: people are creatures of habit, they are unlikely to take conscious notice of things that are the exact same way they always are. Focus rather on things that are unusual; like an unusual scent when coming into a room, unusual heat, a car that doesn't fit into this part of the city, ...
Emotional State: someone‘s emotional state is going to influence how well they pay attention to their surroundings and which details they focus on (For example, someone who is frantic might miss details)

writing advice that actually made my writing worse
okay but can we talk about writing advice that actually made my writing worse for a second
like not in a “this is bad advice for everyone” way in a “this absolutely sabotaged me personally” way
because ??? some of this set me BACK
1. “show don’t tell” (taken too literally) this one almost ruined my prose
i got so scared of “telling” anything that every sentence turned into… over-explained action
instead of writing:
she was nervous
i’d write:
her fingers tapped against the table, her leg bouncing, her breath uneven, her gaze flickering toward the door--
and it just KEPT GOING
like yes, showing is important but at some point you’re not “immersive” you’re just exhausting
2. “cut all adverbs” this made my writing feel so stiff it hurt
i started replacing simple phrasing with weird, clunky sentences just to avoid using one single “-ly” word
like… why am i doing gymnastics to avoid “quietly”
no one is giving out medals for adverb avoidance 😭
3. “write every day no matter what” this one burned me OUT
because instead of listening to my brain when it was fried, i forced myself to produce words i knew weren’t going anywhere
and then i’d reread it later and hate everything i wrote
which made me want to avoid writing even more
consistency matters, yes but forcing it when you’re running on fumes just trains you to associate writing with dread
4. “plan everything before you start” this killed my excitement SO fast
i’d spend weeks outlining every detail and by the time i actually started writing…
the story already felt “done” in my head
no curiosity left. no momentum.
now i leave gaps on purpose so i actually want to keep going
5. “make your writing sound pretty” this is the one that made my writing feel the most fake
i was so focused on making sentences sound “good” that i stopped focusing on what was actually happening
everything turned vague. floaty. kind of… nothing
like yeah it sounded nice but nothing hit
now i care way more about clarity and impact than sounding impressive
6. “your first draft should be terrible” okay this one is half true but also messed with my head
because i took it as: “don’t even TRY”
so i’d write things i knew weren’t working and just leave them
instead of… fixing them a little? making them better?
your draft doesn’t have to be perfect but it also doesn’t have to be painful to read 😭
idk i think the biggest thing i’ve learned is:
advice isn’t universal
what helps one writer can absolutely wreck another
so if something is making your writing worse, harder, or more miserable
you are allowed to drop it. immediately.
no guilt. no “but everyone says this works”
like okay… it doesn’t work for ME.
and that’s enough.

People pleaser flaws!!

˙⋆✮ Laughing at something that made them uncomfortable to keep the peace
˙⋆✮ Never sending food back even when it's genuinely wrong
˙⋆✮ The resentment that builds silently because they never just said no
˙⋆✮ Agreeing to things and hoping they get cancelled so they don't have to
˙⋆✮ Shrinking their own needs down until they're not even sure what they are
˙⋆✮ The carefully worded text that took forty minutes to seem casual
˙⋆✮ Feeling personally responsible for everyone else's emotional temperature
˙⋆✮ Complimenting someone back immediately because receiving one felt dangerous
˙⋆✮ Saying what someone wants to hear and hating themselves a little for it

˙⋆✮ Being so easy to be around that no one thinks to ask if they're okay
˙⋆✮ Adjusting their personality slightly for every single person they know
˙⋆✮ The anger that only comes out sideways because it had nowhere else to go
˙⋆✮ Apologizing to furniture they walked into
˙⋆✮ Needing to be needed as a substitute for feeling genuinely wanted
˙⋆✮ Realizing they've been performing themselves for so long they forgot the original
Underused Microexpressions for Attraction
We’ve done lip biting to death... Let’s evolve.
• Eyes flicking to someone’s mouth mid-sentence • Forgetting what they were about to say • Leaning in unconsciously • Mirroring posture without realizing • Smiling at something that wasn’t that funny • Adjusting hair or clothes when the other person enters • Noticing and remembering details no one else bothers to • A pause before pulling their hand away • Shoulders softening • Looking away first and then back again • Swallowing before speaking • Voice lowering slightly • Turning their body fully toward the other person • A delayed reaction to a touch
I am writing chapter one of the novel version of my comic - which I firstly published in 2020 on webtoon. Funny thing is, at the time, I wasn't very skilled and it was my first comic and I improvised the first chapter. I didn't even have a script. The result was a long as fuck chapter (90ish pages, which is... A lot, for a comic, yk)
As I am writing chapter one of the novel version of the same story, which is a bit different now, it's getting so long. Again.
I usually write a 3k words count per chapter. This shit is around 6k.
Guess the chapter one of this story is cursed.
