A great story starts with a creative imagination. When developing my stories, not only do I imagine the details of the characters and the plot, but I also imagine ways to give my readers more than just a story. I want to give them an experience.
Visual art is one of my favorite creative mediums because it helps form a visual and emotional connection between myself as the author, the story and the reader. Art, whether it comes in the form of music, videos or graphics, helps to set the tone of the story's theme. Whether we take a journey through a dark city, a painful memory or a magical forest, the art helps to bring our imaginations to life.
What is an info-graphic without straight to the point content? Have you ever wanted to learn more about the characters beyond the book? With additional content like character stats and bios, and quick facts about the making of the books, I bring you into my world and creation process.
Imagination, art and content are all wonderful ideas to have, but it is nothing without execution. I learned this the hard way with so many great ideas floating around in my head and little courage to see it through. Once I found the nerve to execute my ideas, I watched my dream come to life and you can too. If you have an awesome idea, execute it. Trust me, you'll be glad you did.
