I always hated high-school shows and high-school movies because they were always about the cool kids. It was always about dating and sex and all the popular kids and the good-looking kids. And the nerds were super-nerdy cartoons with tape on their glasses. I never saw 'my people' portrayed accurately.
It's great when people appreciate your work but I don't know how seriously to take it. The amazing thing is that I found something so early that I can support myself doing and that can even be extremely lucrative but I love it either way.
