Graphic Novels



So for my Writer's Craft class, we are now doing a unit on Graphic Novels and we have to create one of our own. I have had alot of ideas and inspirations but Im having a really hard time piecing it all together. Graphic novels are a whole new ball park of writing, you have to decide what information and speech is important enough to appear within the dialogue bubbles and you cant have too much that clutter occurs within your novel. I really feel like this is going to drive me crazy and i have so much stress on me now that i feel way too overwhelmed. I really want to do an amazing job on this, since i LOVE writing and reading and as well i LOVE drawing, so you would think I could really exceed in this assignment. But my life is as crazy as ever right now dealing with other classes and work and family issues but I just have to sit down and get on this assignment. I think if i sit down and really think, and maybe even start to write, I would get going on this, but I just feel like a huge WRITERS BLOCK sign has been placed on my brain and its driving me CRAAAAAZY. So now im probably just going to get to work on this and the fact that I should write about something I know (my own life) is hard right now since my life is.. all jumbled up right now. I probably should stop writing on this blog post and get to work but It feels like im letting lose of all my fears and thoughts of this assignment. As well, I have bought a couple graphic novels and read some in class that my teacher has given us including the one shown in the picture above and all of them have given me really good ideas that I want to incorporate in my graphic novel. Hopefully some inspiration hits me soon and I get to work on this assignment. I really hope i succeed in making an amazing graphic novel. Wish me luck!
