There are many authors who just started their journey and many readers who want to write but have no courage to do so. Please give them a tip and a word of encouragement.

•To the authors who have just started their journey, welcome to the world where you'll face many ups and downs. A moment you'll praised and the other moment you'll be highly discouraged and criticized. Take both the things in and learn to deal with it. Be always thankful to the readers who encourages you, ignoring your flaws. And talking about the haters, either be polite or just ignoring them. Turning you bitter or making you lose your self confident is always what they want. Never let them win.

•And to the readers who wish to write but have no courage to do so... Just do it guys. Do it before the time runs. Do it before you get busy with life. Do it before you lose it. Incase you're afraid of others' opinions and criticism, remember no matter what you'll do, people will always have something to criticize you. Learn to ignore them. Incase you're not ready to reveal your identify as an author, do it anonymously.

•There's always a way to do things you wish to do. You just need to find it.

Last but not the least, have you ever dreamt of writing your own comic?

•Never.
