I’d love to be able to draw
By jfarrell
There’s a saying…
“We’ve all got a book inside us”….
I’ve a set clawing at the door to be let out.
There’s just one tiny problem.
My writing abilities are good enough to give you
The “Three Billy Goats Gruff” (with pictures - ladybird books)
As a story, but the Tarantino style dialogue,
That’s never gonna get published.
But as a ‘manga’ cartoon, or proper drawing of any sort,
I’d get away with it, maybe even get famous, make money;
Another saying “a picture says a dozen words”
If I could draw the images in my mind, getting them out would be easier.
But! I can’t draw worth a dime.
But! I can write.
I just gotta learn to write better
And one more thing, before I go…
I’d love to write a comedy; few books have made me laugh,
But those that have - I literally hurt myself laughing;
But, I suspect a very bloody, gore-fest of a story wants to be let out first.
Why do I write? Cartharsis - makes me heal, right? Is healthy, get it out.
