(I don't do stars.)

Not an artist, not a cartoonist. I just love reading guides for creative activities that aren't my own.

Making Comics concerns itself with decisions about the form that can happen organically or chosen deliberately. As a "happen organically" type, I really appreciate anything I can soak up on the other side. The section on Stories for Humans should be required reading for anyone who tells them. The rest is excellent for any writer who wants to take on the challenge of thinking MUCH more visually.

Melanie Page I love this book and how it explains why comics are so important. I remember using this book to do a presentation during my MFA.
