We���re finishing up the FLASHED: SUDDEN STORIES IN PROSEAND COMICS manuscipt and it's in the process of being designed. It���s quitesomething to see a manuscript that you���ve been working on for two plus yearscome together. It feels like a book now, a unique project with a voice of itsown, a sense of humor, and something to add to the ongoing investigation intonarrative forms (not to be too academic). It makes me so happy to see such fine prose writers and such fine cartoonists rubbing shoulders and bouncing ideas off of each other onthe page. I just read this in
The New York Times Magazine, in an article on the brain, "...an idea dating back as far as Plato and Aristotle, that meaning emerges from the links between things..." and I thought, yes, right.
Meaning emerges from links between things. That is what we were trying for.
I can���t show any of the design yet, as its still inprototype stage, but at least I can show the title page of Josh���s earlymock-up...
