Draw With Yawatta

Just discover your inner artist and have fun! You're in the right place if you have a curiosity about comic diaries. Hi, I'm Yawatta Hosby and I love drawing in mine. It's a great way to manage all of my hopes, fears, and quirky ideas in one place. It tells my story and my story has value. Your stories have value too. 20-minutes a day is doable to draw in a comic diary. Your inner-artist gets to h

ave fun as you use your imagination and creativity. You get to focus on you, and it's a simple way of reflecting on your life experiences. I've seen wonderful comic diaries with just stick figures. I've heard plenty of excuses--Don't have time. Don't have the energy. Drawing's too hard. I promise you that self-reflecting with a comic diary has many benefits. When you get your thoughts and feelings down on paper, then you're able to process it. Once the idea is tangible, then you have a greater ability to tackle it or let it go. You boost your confidence, improve your self-awareness, and challenge your assumptions. When you don't self-reflect, you keep moving in order to keep up with life. With no perspective of what's working and what's not, eventually you burn out. You end up doing the same exact thing, expecting a better result. Life doesn't work that way. Sometimes you just have to stop and take the time to work out what you value in life. Discover what's working for you and what needs to change. I have a dream that people will start following their dreams and doing what makes them happy. I notice too many people live with regret because they didn't pursue their passion due to a lack of confidence in themselves...or they let a loved one talk them out of it. Living your dreams isn't a fantasy. Living your dreams isn't unattainable. If we got our minds right and followed our hearts instead of letting fear or others' opinions stand in our way, we'd all be in a much better headspace. We can't fight hatred in the world if we don't have inner-peace first. Comic diaries give you inner-peace. Let's draw them together. Will you draw with me?
