Big Minneapolis Project at the Jam this Thursday!

This Thursday, April 2, in addition to the Jam, there will be a project for which I humbly request your talents.  I have been teaching a class at the Loft Literary Center about writing for comics and graphic novels, and by Thursday,  I will have in hand seventeen one-page scripts written by class members.  These class members are being treated to the undeniable thrill of seeing how their scripts will be interpreted by artists.  Those artists are YOU.   I’m hoping that we will have all of the scripts drawn over the course of the evening, one artist per script (no jams please, unless it is penciler/inker teams), and provide rich fodder for next week’s class discussion.  

Please contribute to this project; the students in the class (all experienced writers in other media) are excited to see what their words look like when made into pictures.  

I will be there early on to explain, then I’ll be back later in the evening to reconvene.  Kevin will answer questions during the main time period.  Thanks, and I hope everyone enjoys it!

    Sorry that you won’t be there Jon. I have your BM submission scanned and was planning on bringing it. I guess we will have to wait until the St. Paul jam.

    I would have loved to do this, but I work Thursday nights. If there’s any left over, I’d love to grab one!

    BM submissions sound like something you’d take to the proctologist.
