storytelling

Time to pull this out again. Because really, don't you need a laugh just about now?

If you want more of the same, try the Philosophy Comix website, or the repository of lost masterpieces, the Cartoonbank.com site. By plugging a few words into the advanced search screen I found my all time favorite cartoon by Tom Cheney. In case you can't read the caption:

This is going to be a tough fix. He's completely obscured the main character's plausible motive for revenge by overdeveloping the setting and peppering the entire chapter with irrelevant flashback narratives.

Try Brendan I. Koerner for his discussion not just of A Breath of Smoke and Ashes, but also of Diana herself. I would call this an example of a badly done professional piece. It's condescending, offensively personal in tone, snide and predictable.

I am amazed that reviewers and reporters feel it not only necessary but reasonable to use a cliche like bodice ripper. That's far more offensive to me than a good old fashioned Anglo Saxon cuss word. Such as: asshat.
