HOW TO WRITE AND DRAW A GRAPHIC NOVEL
(THE CRASH COURSE)
with David Lasky and Greg Stump
Graphic novels combine writing and images to tell stories in ways unlike any other medium. In a single evening, two graphic novelists will share many of their secrets and strategies to help you take the first steps toward a graphic novel (or shorter work) of your own. Prior drawing experience is not necessary.
 ABOUT DAVID: David Lasky was named Cartoonists Northwest's "Cartoonist of the Year" for 2009. His 20-year career includes the series Boom Boom and Urban Hipster (with Greg Stump), as well as a minicomic adaptation of Joyce's Ulysses. He is currently working on his first graphic novel (with writer Frank Young): Don't Forget This Song, the story of country music's Carter Family.
ABOUT GREG: Greg Stump's comics and illustrations have been appearing regularly in the weekly Seattle paper The Stranger for a decade. He is the creator of the weekly strip Dwarf Attack, the cocreator (with David Lasky) of the acclaimed comic book series Urban Hipster, and a longtime contributing writer for The Comics Journal. He teaches for a wide range of schools and organizations in the Seattle area, including Seattle University, Arts Corps, and Coyote Central.

HOW TO SUFFER FOR A STORY
with Brendan Kiley
 During his years at the Stranger, Brendan Kiley has done and suffered some unpleasant things. He has killed and butchered rabbits in his bathtub, been doused with pepper spray at the Republican National Convention (after showing his press credentials to police), gotten lost in the woods at night with a pack of wild coyotes, and turned his bare ass over to a professional dominatrix. In this one-night-only class, Brendan will discuss turning pain into prose.
ABOUT BRENDAN: Brendan Kiley was born in an Alaskan fishing town and has lived all over the coastal U.S., as well as Spain, the Czech Republic, and Japan. He has written for the Boston Globe, the Utne Reader, Newsweek, the Forward, and the Stranger.
