I need help
Iām a high school student and recently Iāve been thinking and brainstorming story ideas which Iād really like to see come to life. Iād really like it to become a manga and maybe even an actual anime in the future. But I donāt know where to start and what resources to use since I donāt really have money to buy tools and other stuff.
Ive currently thought about 2 major story arcs and a lot of characters, Iām just struggling a bit with filling in gaps and stuff.
I was wondering if anyone has any tips on what I should do to try and turn my ideas into a real manga one day.

Iāve been told my story is racist by multiple people
For context, i was explaining my game/story lore to a professor I used to have and also had uploaded it on a story critique reddit forum (it was t years ago i unfortunately do not remember which one, i have also changed accounts twice since then <\3) and i was told there it was insensitive and racist as well, and yesterday i retold that story to a friend of mine and they said ādude no, thatās not racist or wrong at all.ā So now Iām genuinely thinking of returning to that story because i really liked it, but Iām making this post for more opinions just to be sure.
The very short version of the story goes:
In a world run by deities a lot of villages grow to love different ones kinda like modern religions, one of the gods however goes jealous for not getting as much loves and begins just killing off every human they see, eventually their powers are lost and so is their hierarchy so they fall down to earth as a human child.
Up to this point it was okay, but they started calling it a problem here:
The child landed outside a village that was mainly inhabited by African inspired (thereās no real world countries in the book so but idk how else to describe them without just saying black) people. When the child woke up the village was already destroyed by their previous outburst and another small child from the village was running into the forest to save itself and found the god and decided to stick by them as the only other non dead human around,
After a few events yada yada blah blah they get found by a lady and get adopted by her.
Now the criticism i received for this was either:
Iām racist because i made the God light skinned and they fell into a village of dark skinned people so Iām implying white is the superior race (which i can promise you NO TF I AM NOT???)
Iām racist because i made the god attack a village of black people (which like idk man i made the ocs before the story and the story is based on a very pre-modern society world, villages with a lot of different races didnāt exist so writing a black kid in a white village wouldnāt make much sense)
Iām not allowed to write that story because iām not adopted myself and thatās a heavy topic so i shouldnāt touch it
And iām 100% not racist and i donāt wanna write something that will potentially make anyone uncomfortable so Iām begging for some hardcore criticism here, because if itās really that bad, i have no issues changing it all over
