Left Turns is a 365 page engaging and heartfelt slice-of-life love story about hope, expectations, chasing dreams, and finding your place in the world when life takes some unexpected left turns. This original graphic novel is an engaging and heartfelt slice-of-life story about David, a 25-year-old aspiring comic book artist in the early 2000s who, thinking all the pieces of his life are coming together, unexpectedly finds himself dumped by his longtime girlfriend and forced to consider how much he's willing to sacrifice - and change - in the hopes of making his dream become a reality.
It's a story intended to inspire and entertain anyone interested in pursuing their dreams and creative endeavors, even in the face of adversity, with roadblocks both personal and professional. Left Turns is an emotionally engaging and visually stunning story about the experiences of love and loss, of heartache and random chance encounters, and the sacrifices that run parallel with the artistic desire to see and create a way to capture moments indefinitely.
