The beginning is the best place to start with anything.

I began creating this story when I was 16. Now when I say this story, I mean a totally different story about a magical chosen one schoolgirl with a cat buddy who gets her fast food and provides general support as she runs from an evil corporation of evil while unwittingly seducing 3 male counterparts (two from the evil corporation of evil )

So, okay, not the same story at all. But this was when I began creating one big story that I wanted to take over the world with. It involves a few of, who in my heart, are the same characters in the current Between Worlds (Which I shall shorten to BW as I always do in conversation X3)

Main character being a young gal by the name of Juno (which I shortened to Jun, cos thats like super kewl and was the name of someone in Tekken..) who was NOT a mary sue at ALL! She just had wings and an evil mother and also an evil twin called Ruby who had black har instead of blonde and SO WHAT if every bish who came across her fell hopelessly in love with her and must follow her on her journeys and hand her copious gifts (seriously, at the end of this comic, there was an entire room full of chocolates from one particular suitor) ahem… so yes, a totally rounded and flawed character was Jun… :$ whut… why you lookin at me like that

BAAH! okay, so everyone has to have a mary sue at the beginning of their story writing career haha! I feel people should be unafraid to embrace the mary sue at first, and just have fun! So what if it’s fulfilling your deep desires for rooms full of chocolate, at least its a story.

Here are a few pages of my first lil comic

Note the misuse of MAWNGAH symbolism, popping veins for EVERYONE! alls I knew was that was what tha manga peoples did, so thats what I was gonna do.

Two dark, suited and mysteeerious men who are totally not the Turks from FF7 are here to take away a girl with a mysteeerious birthmark!? but I am a girl with a mysterious birthmark! OH NOES!

I MUST ESCAPE THIS PAGODA THAT I LIVE IN! break out the ninja woman gear all girls have! lets go typically named japanese cat!

Aye yai yai, okay so now I feel exposed XD

Tune in next times for more confessions of past comics :3
