Before I ramble on about being the runner-up in the Dundee International Book Prize, please make do with a comic about such things and associated feelings.
That's beautifully said and drawn, Rachel. I like the philosophy of running on your own. The father's comments reminded me of a joke, of comedian Peter Russel, I believe, that my husband found to ring very true to his experience as a child: "Like my father always said: "shut up, I can't listen to the radio!"
Beautifully written and drawn. Iron Maiden (of Honor) in title. New Shoes (of colour) in spirit. Brilliant work!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant Rae. Keep running forward, it's the only way. N x

You're so refreshingly and artistically honest!
ReplyDeleteOnward!
ReplyDeleteGood stuff, Rae. And I wanna read your novel.
A lovely piece of work. Don't forget to send me the Dundee piece too!

Thank you, Lori. That's so sad. Parents can be hurtful. I wish everyone could put the crappy stuff into comics and get some happy from it.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kass! I am possibly too honest for my own good...
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! Chers, Michelle - glad you are interested to read it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, t'other Rachel - will do!
