Daily Batman: Hiding from writing


“Catwoman 3” by 89g on the da.

Writing is easy. You only need to stare at a piece of blank paper until your forehead bleeds.

Douglas Adams

If one more person uses my recent illness as the basis of a “you should” type sentence whose predicate is, “finish some of your writing,” I am going to jump off the roof. This threat is less dramatic than it seems: I live in a one-story house. I just figure that if I’ve got a lot of stitches and splints, maybe it will give these well-meaning loved ones something else to talk to me about.

    Considering that I just admitted to a friend today over lunch that I am using your blog as an excuse not to write my own (as in “It is so badass, how can I write anything that cool?”) this has ominous timing. Gosh, my own bullshit excuses amuse me sometimes.

      I am right there with you — excuses, excuses, excuses. Before the blog I was drawing and constructing comics out of found photos. One of them featured a diploma and mortarboard. It said, “Why so down, English degree?” The English degree replied, “You hide from your writing by making these comics.” The caption was: “Wish I had not asked.”
