About the Author: I’ve been writing for a very long time, since I was a toddler even. Ever since I learnt how to read at a very young age, I created my own stories. This story had it’s very first draft when I was twelve or thirteen years old on Wattpad, I’m now currently twenty-five. For a few years, I’ve been editing and scrapping older versions of this story and trying to modify it so that the inconsisticies, grammar and spelling mistakes, plot holes, etc. don’t bother the reading experience for you guys… however, I stopped doing that a while ago. I have other books that I would like to be published and books I have published and if I spend all my time work-shopping a book I started when I was twelve, I think I might go insane. When I reread this story, it feels like a cute little time machince of where my mind was at and I’m always proud of little Cayenne for making a story that people are invested in to this degree. I’m very appreciative of the feedback and the response this story has gotten even after years, thank you guys for continuing to read this. Please read this story light-heartedly, eventually I will come back to this and revamp it for you all just so that it makes some more sense but until then… please enjoy my time capsule!
Hi Cay_Luhs,
I just finished reading your story “The Confidence Of A Nerd” and I loved it so much. Your writing is raw, emotional, and honest and I kept picturing how powerful it would look as a comic.
I really loved the moment in Chapter 1 when Lia describes, with heartbreaking clarity, her daily pain growing up without her dad every scene where she privately witnesses her mother's betrayals and tries to alert her father felt like a silent scream on the page. That emotional tension is ideal for transforming into manga-style panels, with close‑up expressions and evocative shading to capture her isolation and inner turmoil.
I also connected strongly to the flashback where Lia recounts the moment her dad finally discovered the truth when he catches her mother with her boss because that turning point is so dramatic: the heartbreak, betrayal, and raw confrontation would translate beautifully into sequential art, giving visual impact to such a pivotal scene.
I’m a commissioned artist, and I’d love to draw your story into a comic/manga. No pressure though.I just think “The Confidence Of A Nerd” would resonate even more deeply when brought to life visually.
You can check out some of my recent work on my DeviantArt (Username – Ev3Verse). If you’re interested, please message me on Discord (Username – Eve_Verse) so we can bring the story to life visually. I’ll be waiting to hear from you!
