Wow, I am so still not caught up on anything life-related yet. I’m working on it. Sloooooowly, but still…

I feel like I did do a lot of reading this week. Some of it was for two awesome classes:

Social Issues Through Comic Books

Get A Grasp (for comic creators)

(Both of which are FREE classes you can still join, so do it!)

Class reading probably included the best thing I read all week: Taste versus Ability

But there was more…

• Learn important writing lessons from Joss Whedon
• Looking for diversity behind the scenes at HBO? Ummm…
• Kristen Bell has the right idea about storytelling
• What Anne Sweeney really wants to do is direct. Cool.
• Though we still don’t know what happened between Stanley Kubrick and his daughter, she’s now sharing photos. This is one story I would really love to read, were it released in book form.
• Speaking of books, an excerpt from a memoir by Tracey Jackson seemed to be making the rounds this week. The only oddity? It was released in 2011…

 

 

And some other notes…

My heart goes out to the citizens of Austin, TX and the folks who lost their lives at SXSW this year. But there were some lovely bits of news out of the fest, and the one about the swag bags benefiting the homeless was by far my favourite.

As always, there will be more next week. In the meantime, have a Happy St. Patrick’s Day. If you still need something green to wear, you can always get a little Loki on your lips…
