my school wanted to place a few fan fics i've done in the school paper but i told them no... I was scared out of my wits, i thought it was horrible none of the panels had backgrounds and you could barely read my writing!
I've always wanted to be a manga artist but i'm not good with finnishing what i start...

Besides, surely it's possible to work as a comic book artist in Japan even if you're a foreigner. I heard the mangaka for Cutie Honey were Gaijin.

Though surely at least twice as hard to be a comic artist in Japanese if you're not Japanese right?
