Here are a few comics from Comics.com on the topics of writing and editing. I was sent one by writer and editor Charles P. Zaglanis, and it inspired me to post a few:
I always loved the Peanut strips where Snoopy would send in his manuscripts. My favorite was when he got a letter back asking him please never to submit again and his thought was. "I love it when they beg."
Charles, I was thinking about Snoopy, too. It's surprising that he didn't make an appearance here, especially since Snoopy and William are both fond of Edward Bulwer-Lytton! :-)
William Jones has received Bram Stoker Award nominations, International Horror Guild Award and Origins Award nominations for his works. He is the editor of several anthologies, including The Anthology of Dark Wisdom: The Best of Dark Fiction, Frontier Cthulhu: Ancient Horrors in the New World, High Seas Cthulhu, and the Horrors Beyond Series. His book, The Strange Cases of Rudolph Pearson was selected by Editor Ellen Datlow as a "seminal" work for readers of Lovecraftian horror. He has also written a number of role-playing game supplements, and his writings have been translated into several languages. His most recent novel is Pallid Light: The Waking Dead. He lives in Michigan.
Now available in Barnes and Nobles, Borders Books, and Hastings bookstores:
The world ends with the flip of a switch. The thundering storms strike across the world, searing the earth, leaving destruction in their wake. Few will survive. For the folks living in Temperance, Illinois the nightmare is just beginning. When the sky roils in luminous colors, the people of the small town begin to die, and Randall Clay decides to escape. What he didn’t expect was the dead to come back to life or the nightmare that came after that.
