What Would Jesus Do...For Fun?>>>>>>inward focus

A Poem of My LifeA tiny crack in my self image.
Slowly broken as others throw stones in my direction.
Finally I'm on the brink of destruction.
Standing on the ledge.

Then out of the dark arms surround me
and pull me back in.
They pull me out of my dark depression
Into the light.

You begin work to repair my broken image.
Carefully piecing me back together.
Makeing me again what you wanted me to be
Sometimes it hurts to have the grime washed away.

Finally youve fixed it well enough to see
part of the plans you have in store for me.
But my life starts taking a beating once again.
And soon cracks start to reappear.

You use the light and love tha

Dancing with GodDancing with God.
A twirl, and a nod
every vestage of glory
revealed to me

pure and clean
I have not yet seen
the sin and hate
that fills this place

but then a dark aura
fills the air
as the angel of hate
enters the room

he takes my hand
intrigueing me
with promises of happyness
that I already posess

I do not see God
calling to me
for sin is full
in my view

I begin to search
and I soon find
a new dance partner
of which to call mine

As I spin round and round
my head does the same
this high was not happy
it only added to my shame

God is still calling
despretely pleading
watching me make
mistake after mistake

Kay Adalli has never dated anyone in her life. Her focus has always been on God. But when she goes to a Christian College for a degree in Children's Ministry, she finds it to be not what she expected. And then she meets James Miller; a soon-to-be minister who's brilliant, focused, and responcible. Soon after she meets Nathan Tye; a talented music leader who's cocky, unpredictable, and able to sweep any girl off thier feet. Soon though, the two guys both fall for her. Kay of course, is totally clueless. Will she survive a faith shaking tradgedy, college stress, and the on-going battle between her two best friends?

Edit 3: I forgot to mention, and I'll mention it on my other pgs, that I cannot take full credit for this page. I made it off a blank manga template by ~manga-template. He has a whole bunch of incredibly useful blank templates to help you set up your frames. The story, characters, and art are still all mine though.

Your style is gorgeous and cute! I love how you got the perspective in the first panel and then the close-up in the second. It moves really well overall

~JessieJordan Aug 24, 2011 Hobbyist General Artist

I read through a whole lot of shojo mangas and waded through a bunch of junk to understand the mood of shojo. So your comment means alot. ^-^

~terra13 Aug 25, 2011 Student Traditional Artist

Ahhh, very good then

*onlyelisha Aug 23, 2011 Student General Artist

I really like your use of gray

~JessieJordan Aug 23, 2011 Hobbyist General Artist

thank you!

~bbqbert Aug 23, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Hahaha, I like the flop-down-on-the-floor move at the end there~ I feel for you, my friend! I've been there!!!!! This is a nice opening page--got a a little humor in there, included a pretty profile with some lovely misty bubbles in the back... I love how floaty and airy it feels, definitely gives off the feeling of a shojo manga. Well done!

Lovely, keep up the good work!!!

~JessieJordan Aug 23, 2011 Hobbyist General Artist

Thank you. All the feedback is really encouraging.

~Half-Elf Aug 23, 2011 Student Artist

Haha, I like her fall over of fail-ness

I like your style!! The line weight is lovely, and I like the tone-less grayscale...It's different, but in a good way!
