I failed...
11 years ago
I got no where else to vent, since I have very few friends here and stuff.
So... I been working a series called Terra since the start of this year... or was it last year? I can't remember. At this point I guess I don't care because I'm pretty much giving up on the project as a whole. Why?
Well my normal group of friends mistook my series for an erotica... and thats it. I been legitimately trying to make a fantasy story all this time, and all because of ONE nudity scene and one porno picture, everyone pretty much thought I was going for it.
I feel really bad... I dont want to write a erotic story. I have nothing wrong with porn. I wanna draw porn! I probably would love to do it, and be like Slugbox or Jay Naylor... but the thing is that I didn't want to make sex a major thing in the story I was planning out.
It was not my focus or my goal, and since my own group of friends thought otherwise... it is just really upsetting. My feelings are really, really hurt. Sure, I draw porn sometimes and it may pertain to the story... but who doesn't draw porn of their stuff sometimes? Probably plenty, but plenty also do it as well.
I'm not really mad or having a big depression. I'm just really hurt that my efforts are mistaken just for porn.
Its like in The Giant Claw, a 1957 movie about a giant monster bird, staring Jeff Morrow. Jeff Morrow gives a good performance and all that junk, and he thought he was doing a good movie. But as soon as the monster appears, it looks so goofy that everyone who saw the movie began to laugh hysterically. Rumor is he went home and got very drunk.
I feel like Jeff Morrow.
If erotica is what I was going for, I'd be fine. But it wasn't. Sex would be in the story, and may even be a plot point... but not for erotic reasons.
I don't feel like I could talk to anyone about this either. Not without sounding like a whiner. Maybe I am whining, but still... if your attempts made people have the wrong idea or porn, wouldn't you be a little upset too?
And really, people are now afraid to critique my stuff... they have been for a while. That just adds to the pile of things. It all makes me wanna just up and leave even more. I been thinking about it for a while, but I'd miss my friends all the same.
But if I did leave, at least no one could stress over me. So I still think about it.
Eh... oh well. Thats my vent I guess.
