How To Write Like I Do with David Lasky and Greg Stump

Graphic novels combine writing and images to tell stories in ways unlike any other medium. In a single evening, two graphic novelists will share many of their secrets and strategies to help you take the first steps toward a graphic novel (or shorter work) of your own. Prior drawing experience is not necessary.
