I have been wanting to tell some of my stories with my illustrations.

I want to combine images and text. Would this break the rules of the intended use of Medium?

Would it still be considered a story?

Will anyone view my visual stories?

I hope they will. I write. I draw. I like combining the two things together.

Medium has the potential to tell many different types of stories. Sketchnotes(visual notes), drawings, illustrations, and webcomics should all be possible.

Epilogue.

I’m aware that there is no rule prohibiting webcomics or visual notes, yet there are very few at the moment on Medium. I hope that more people give it a try.
