Hi,
You are off to a good start, but I agree with the others that this drawing is pretty typical of early drawings by young anime fans. On a happier note, you have already started learning to draw and that puts you several steps ahead of all the people that join DA and ask "how should I begin" and then they disappear. So you are on the path. You just need to keep moving forward.

Looks to me like beginner stuff. You have no grasp on a real style yet, and I recommend that you start drawing real humans before you try to develop a new "style." Manga artists actually study anatomy, believe it or not. It helps with drawing, and it'll do you and a lot of people good!

Good luck.

Yeah I got that much. Manga artists don't start drawing "manga" style instantly. They study real anatomy and human figures. So if you want to be a manga artist, you're going to have to practice drawing how every real artist starts. If you need some reference sites I can provide them.

I have used how to draw manga books for years, I guess I need more practice, and I have looked at other art on here to get inspired.

Unless you are publishing this in japan, it isn't 'manga'.

Style wise, yes, anime or manga style.

Not original. Very typical actually, particularly of beginners. (Sorry)
