The Skill of Using Your Imagination
Douglas Paszkiewicz
Recommended for writers and artists, or those interested in the root of the creative process. Getting a good idea is only a small part of what goes into making a great story or illustration, BUT you do need that good idea. Eisner, Harvey, and Comicdom award nominee, Douglas Paszkiewicz (Arsenic Lullaby, Mad Magazine), known internationally for macabre, bizarre stories, will explain some methods, and techniques that help train your mind and imagination to manufacture ideas. As well as how to develop those ideas into better ideas, and refine those better ideas into quality work that actually connects with your fellow man. This will not be an abstract motivational, pie in the sky panel. It will be a usable, nuts and bolts explanation that may be of great value to aspiring writers and illustrators. And even to established writers and illustrators who often find themselves in a rut.
