Jarrell’s (Teen Titans Go! Roll With It!) realistic, occasionally moody illustration creates a sense of gritty realism that’s perfectly matched to Parker’s (Warlord of Mars Attacks) cleverly subversive script in this surprising, emotionally resonant science-fiction coming-of-age story.
These insider stories, recounting the experiences of beginning writers, poets, and MFA students alike, will resonate with those following a similar path. While there are lessons to be gleaned, this is not a book on learning how to write, nor is it a guide to developing a mentor/mentee relationship.
