I Just Wanted To Do What I Love To Do Most

July 11, 2022

Monday. I planned to go to the real estate marketing company that has been asking me to join in. I already prepared myself to leave this afternoon. However, since I am still on medications for my colds, I felt drowsy. Besides, with the threat of the covid-19 virus still lingering, I suppose it's just prudent to stay at home.

Greetings again my dear read-cash family. I hope you are a having a great Monday. I am feeling a little better compared to yesterday. I just had to take the cold medication this morning to ensure that I will get better. Medication, plus a lot of water and rest.

I am still fighting my drowsiness, but I want to be productive as I can. I have several techinal topics pending, but with my condition, I don't even want to do some research about any of them.

I Tried To Write.

I wasted an hour or so playing games earlier. Maybe just to keep my brains going.

Then I decided to try creating an account for Hive. However, I got the message "IP address quality poor" and I can't continue. Probably because of the shared IP address provided by our local ISP.

I decided to create another blog in Publish0x. I planned to upload my blog about art and digital images. As I check the "Explore" page of Publish0x, I saw a category for Music, Photography, and Art, which include Fan Fiction. That's when the thought of creating the story that I has been in my mind for years. It's a story involving one of my favorite superheroes crossed with one popular alien from the movies.

Old School Comic Book Lover

Yes, I'm an old school comic book lover. I used to collect a lot of comic books way back in college. I can't afford to buy one these days, though. Thankfully they are now brining the superheroes to the big screen and on TV.

I Just Wanted to Do What I Love To Do Most.

I did not want to think so much. I don't just want to watch anything either, I just might fall asleep. I played some games. However, I wanted to be productive even with my current condition. So I did what I always wanted to do most. To Draw.

Using Medibang Paint.

Medibang Paint is primarily designed for creating mangga comics. So it has a too to add comic panels. I tried that last week and I loved it.

Today, gathered my thoughts on the story that I have been playing in my mind. I started one page with some panels. I just did a rough sketch.

After finishing a page, I wanted to do more. I did not put any dialog yet, but the story started to build up in my mind. After finishing the second page, I did another... then another. I took some break in between. I think I spent about three hours in creating my pages. I ended up with 10 pages.

Here are some of the pages that I have created today.

These are still rough sketches. I still have a lot to work on for each page.

Do you recognize the characters? I hope so.

Where will I publish this? Unfortunately, Rusty does not like posts composed of pictures mostly. Maybe I will write a written story version of this... a graphic novel perhaps.

For the comic pages version? Maybe I will create a personal web for this or in Publish0x.

I still have other stories in my mind. I had them for years but I never shared them to anybody... I guess that's me being an introvert. But I guess I have to share them... That's the purpose of having this gift. To share them.

I'm not sure if I will make some money out of this. But... this is what I love to do, so I will do it anyway.

Thanks for reading.
