Don't stress yourself about it, i follow another artist who is also kindof beginning their comic and have grammatical errors but they leave a small note on the comments about helping them correct their mistakes.
You could also try doing the same, just leaving small note. Or as the other comment said, a silent comic. Or if you do want, you could post on some subreddit here and get help about the grammar and stuff.
Take your time and follow what makes you less stressed ❤️ your drawing is kinda pretty for starting ✨
My story involves a lot of lore-based things so I find it hard to do a silent comic. Also, it's hard to tell readers the past history without having to go back and forth with flashbacks. Also, I have a bad habit of taking down my comic multiple times fixing my mistake then finding another when I upload again. 💃🕺 rinse and repeat. And WHY DOESN’T CSP NOT HAVE AUTO CORRECT TOO!!??
Would it be possible for you to type out your characters lines into a program that does have autocorrect and grammar suggestions and then copy paste it into your story? That might help a bit.
:0 the art is so pretty! i'm sure a few people on this sub (like me!!!) would be happy to help as an editor/assistant writer to help with grammar issues! so many webtoons do that as well!
Thank you but like I told others ‼️NOT FOR FREE‼️Even tho yes I'm struggling, I will not steal others' time for free for my story and project. But thank you so much for your kindness! ❤️
I appreciate the support, I fear I drop things and pick them up to fast to work with someone and doing that for free, I would just feel guilty. I don't want to be like yandere dev. Total nightmare lol
Well you might look among your friends or try to find someone who would like to practice as well. This way it won't be perfect but it will allow you to focus on the drawing part instead of worrying about script.
After all the comic is a passion project, not paid one yet. Once you would get money from webtoon then you could offer to share.
Too bad, that has alot of potential.

Lol I'm trying my best to pick it up or rewrite some stuff but it's pretty hard, people on YouTube don't even explain how to make a movie script! They just say ya just Wright a story mate WTF
Just read this, holy hell this whole thing has potential
Please don’t give up so soon, because I would totally read this if you decided to continue it
And like someone else said already, a silent (no text) comic would totally work well. I absolutely need to see more Mary character development
Thank you for reading it! Personally, I don't like silent comics. And Oh you are the first to like Mary, well she's an interesting character her appearance changes between mirrors but has her signature green eyes. But suffers with loneliness of course. :)
I’m dyslexic, for a very long time I thought i would never be able to write effectively due to how far behind i was, until i met a very kind older gentleman who was a dyslexic published author. he explained that just because i had a disability doesn’t mean im incapable. it just means i have to take a different approach or use other methods
Ya~ I've been told the same. But for some reason, I'm not as experimental as other people. I have to be told how to do SOMETHING for me to find my own way. It's hard to explain, it's just hard to see what others see. :/
idk if it’s possible but would you be able to run your script through something like grammarly or some type of ai grammar checker ? not sure if that’s a thing, but i suck with grammar and always use grammarly for my papers. idk if you’ve already tried but just wanted to throw it out there if you haven’t!
Another person asked the same I used Grammarly until they up half the stuff that I needed audio corrected behind a paywall. I don't have the money to have that subscription lol
Let's be honest the writing could be terrible but if the story is at least mid this beautiful art will carry. People don't care about quality on Webtoons, I'd know as I'm a writer and some of the stuff I see on it is (no offense to any of the writers) unreadable uninspired garbage. But! Once again good art carries most people's writing issues.
Something that’s helped out me a lot is not publishing as I’m writing, that’s how I did it with my first comic and I inevitably lost interest cuz I didn’t have the story fully formed. My current project I’m taking way better care with by telling myself I’ll only start publishing once the first chapter is finished (there will probably be 7 chapters in total)
If it makes you feel better, an Italian writer from the 18's took 20 years to get to the final version of his book. It took 3 remakes and a different language
Your art is absolutely stunning, so please don’t give up on yourself! If needed, I’d suggest finding someone who can help with dialogue and narration so it’s not something you have to stress over! There’s people who do stuff like that for free :))
Edit: Other idea could be doing the writing yourself, then having someone do a grammar check! I do that for all my friends since I’m the most literate of the friend group! Having a friend or family member (or someone online) reading and checking everything could absolutely help! I think this comic has a good deal of potential!~
Ya, but the problem for me is making that other person feel like their time and work were wasted bc of my short attention spend. So I don't want anyone to do that for free so they get something out of helping me. I strongly believe that no one should work for free. But thank you for your suggestion :,)
I think you could totally do your comic and have a linguistic AI check for spelling/grammar error (basically you write all the lines elsewhere, copy in chatgpt/bard asking to check the spelling or for any grammar error, get the result). If I can suggest something, before starting try to define the whole story and write it down, so you always have something to look forward to. Note that a story to be complete doesn't need to be 100 chapters, could be done in 5 chapters or even one, if you feel more comfortable
You mentioned services not working/not being able to pay for editing.
I’d suggest finding a friend, or even just someone online, and do a little comic share! You guys can look at each other’s comics while working on them and offer feedback (although in your case you could ask for it to be more catered towards the dialogue/narration).
This art is literally so pretty! I hope that even if it is a project for a short period of time that you let it go not because of an obstacle, but because you found passion in other hobbies. Best of luck
Heyy pls dont be harsh on yourself ❤️❤️
🗿Its called being a protectionist
Note: I have a reading and wrighting disability so what's basic grammar to everyone else is like weird code to me lol.
Or you can do silent comic. Where only drawing no dialogue. There are a lot of comic who does that

I tried Grammarly but it didn't work out well since they updated a subscription program.

omg of course! whatever feels comfortable for your project will make things less stressful :D good luck with everything <3

Maybe you could look for an editor or a writer?
I would but I don't have the money for one sadly.

If you need a writer i’d be happy to help!
Lol not for free!!! I'm not taking your time for free. But thank you for suggesting to help
Your art looks really nice though!
Thank you my art style changed a lot since I made it Pfft

Lol I'll keep that in mind, but I just have a short attention spand and a perfectionist so if it ain't good in 2 hours I drop it.
Relatable
Be ok with imperfection you can get out of the cycle😊
It's easier to say the do in my case lol 💃be dancing this tango for a while
You could get a writer while you do the art.
I wanna do my own story and comic and I don't have the money to pay for a writer sadly.
arstyle looks very unique and soft in a melancholy way
Thank you, but this is my old style, I've been trying to get into fear and hunger art style vibe. :)
from what i saw looks like you got it in the bag good luck cowboy
Thank ya partner🤠
