I wish I had the Talent to Draw

As a writer I enjoy nothing more than creating characters. I love being able to shape a being that will never exist in our world. Creating is one of the things I enjoy the most about writing. The problem all comes down to whether or not the reader can picture the character. I love it when authors are able to include drawings of their characters in their books. This really helps with picturing the character as you read. I feel it helps with making the character come to life. 

I have tried to draw my characters myself, but it doesn't really work out. I just can not draw my characters as I imagine them, instead the drawing becomes something that teenagers will draw. (Not that all teenagers draw the same.)

Why am I stressing so much on this? I love to look for pictures online that can help with the inspiration of a character. I find one picture I like along with another and I will use the things I love about them to create my character in my mind. Yes I know we all have our talents and that we should be grateful for them. Once in awhile we all wish that we could do something that another can do. When in reality we should see that our talent is something that we can share. 

I will continue to create my character's as  I write. I  can hope that one day I will find someone that can draw the characters that will help readers visualize them even better in their minds.
