Next week, I will be on the road to Howick Public School to give my presentation Between the Panels: How Comics are Made to students ranging from Grade 4 all the way up to Grade 8.
I always enjoy visiting schools, especially when I get to stay all day and see a wide range of students. It gives me a chance to share my enthusiasm for writing, creativity and, with this presentation, comics.
School visits also give me a charge in my writing. They remind me why I do this writing thing. When you spend your days alone in front of a screen trying to fill it with words, it’s easy to forget that there are thousands of kids out there actually enjoying what you’ve created.
So, thanks for the invitation Howick PS, I’m looking forward to meeting you all!

Have a blast, Liam! Looks like a fabulous presentation. Perhaps one day I will be in town during one of your school visits, and you’ll let me sit in

You can definitely sit in on one of my presentations, Anita. The secrets of comics must be shared with all.

For sure they will be shared with my nephew—through Max Finder
The Collected Casebook is awesome! Equally awesome is Ginger Leads the Way, which I picked up for my neice. It’s going to be an O’Donnell Christmas in that household!
