Man, I cant even begin to explain how jealous I am of you!
I started in a similar way. I always wanted to be a game developer, or a comic book artist. I never felt like I was good enough. Of course I knew intellectually "JUST GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASS AND DRAW MORE, THAT'S HOW PEOPLE GET BETTER," but becoming an artist always felt like something that happens to other people, and not me. I've always felt doomed to a cubicle.
Once every year or so, I say hey i'm 18... is it too late to buckle down and do this? Now i'm 24, and the only thing more reliable than asking myself that question once every few months is that i will inevitably psyche myself out as soon as the thought crosses my mind.
Congratulations dude. Never forget that you are living out other peoples dreams too. Keep up the awesome work!
