How to get into video game art and design?

I'm just wondering how challenging is video game art and design? Could someone tell me what its like? And how much more challenging is it if your not a very good drawer. Because I have good literary skills and good computer skills, but my drawing skills just suck i mean I couldn't draw if my life depended on it.How to get into video game art and design?
I am 24 right now and i was once plagued with the same issue of not possessing good drawing skills. I went to the art institute of chicago's traning session which lasted 2 weeks. It was basically outlining and giving you an idea of what the entire 3 year program would be like. I too had good literary skills and computer skills. I found that there are different aspects of the game creation industry. Much of the good game design artists are Extremely gifted artists. The Art Institutes does have a very good program that allows for beginners to get trained on how to draw, but in the long run i did not go through with it because. of all the great artists that i was surrounded by (there would have been no way i could compete.) If you really want to do this then i would recommend going to one of their training sessions for prospective students and see for yourself if you are still interested.
