Most thought provoking thing I've learned:
1980's $450 = 2017's $1200

inflation's a damn bitch

okay seeing glaring Jotaro in cool posing with the notes "neutral expression for his cool character" "massive body to show fantasy" "high school uniform for normalcy"
is taking me out 🤣

"Heroes fight alone" 🤔 but teamwork makes the dream work. ...Is this perhaps where eastern and western stories differ?

Wait. Did he just spoil Steel Ball Run for me as an example?

I still tried to straighten out the setting and rules of that world for one of them, but... man, there were a lot of things my childhood self did not consider lol. Like. An ending.

The stories I used to want to tell don't really work with this modern world, or this adult version of myself.

I had 3 btw. Two of which were started and published online a long time ago, but life and school got in the way.

With all the effort I spend on JCU nowadays, I have to remind myself a lot of this is a test case. However, lately all I think about is this story... I don't know what I'd consider my magnum opus anymore.

"make something that stands out and isn't like everything around you" [setting wise...]
Ergh... now this is something hard to fix. I tend to take what's popular and see what sort of twist I can bring to such a setting.
It's hard to come up with something that isn't influenced by what's around me.

Die. Die. cringe!!

The first thing to learn... Need an interest grabbing first page.
Uh.
Come to think of it, what did my first page look like for my contest entry 5 years ago? In fact, how do I find my entry again? (Talk about pathetic of me!)
