a comic and poem about writing anxiety

Drawn by me :)

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Entertaining the Intruder

A frequent visitor

has come over to play

I never invite it

and it won't go away

-

It looms near my ear

making me sweat

pulls me into

an invisible net

-

Watches me stumble

stutter a line

smiles eternally

my words aren't mine

-

I hope it will vacate

my small home

I'm locked inside

not free to roam

--------------------------------------

Thank you for reading my comic and poem! I don't know about you guys, but writing anxiety is real pain sometimes. There is more to come in this anxiety arc, so please stay tuned!
