I Still Found Literary Criticism To Be

Drawing Is More Fun To Me Than Writing. I Think It's Interesting To Talk To Different Cartoonists About How Those Activities Work For Them. I'm A Very Writerly Cartoonist. I Certainly Spend More Time On The Writing Than I Do On The Drawing, Even Though The Drawing, Of Course, Is Very Time-consuming.

I Just Met Someone Who Read Gone With The Wind 62 Times For Exactly That Same Reason. She Couldn't Bear That It Wasn't Real. She Wanted To Live In It.

But I Read Comic Books. I Read Things Like Richie Rich And Little Lulu.

It Was A Vicious Cycle, Though. The More Gratification We Found In Our Own Geniuses, The More Isolated We Grew.
