 Meet 'R&J'. My original characters, from a 'love' story I started writing back when I was 15, which ended up being over 70k words long 😵 Looking back now though, the story was awful. Like, I didn't have any good understandings/influences regarding healthy relationships at the time esp. gay relationships... so you can imagine how problematic the story turned out to be. Because of this, I wanted to forget I even wrote the story... but I found I couldn't let go of this couple. |  [continued] So, instead of focusing on regret, I recently decided to redraw and reinvent them! Now, it's like they've come back to life and grown up with me. They still aren't 100% complete but it's so fun for me to see how much they've changed. |  [continued] I'm in the process of rewriting their entire story as I find I now have a better understanding of relationships/people AND new ideas based on my own experiences growing up as someone who has come to terms with the fact that they are gay/queer, on the ace spectrum, and non-binary/transgender. |
