Мечты. Чертов Bakuman. Я ведь, если быть честным, отложил до "лучших времен" свою маленькую пошленькую мечту. Потому что художника тут - нет. И потому что я не представляю как писать скрипт для комикса. Рассказ? Да раз плюнуть! Стишок? Да как два пальца! Эссе? Мой любимый формат! А вот скрипт...
Но - надо. Уже сейчас. Потом будет легче. Вселенная не терпит пустоты. Подмяв под себя часть реальности, сформировав место, я получу возможность. Может быть это будет такой же студент, как и я?
Поэтому, чтобы не забыть:

Совет не мне, но от почитаемого автора

How do you write comics?

When I decided I wanted to write comics in 1985 I went out and bought Will Eisner's Comics and Sequential Art. If I were doing it now I'd also buy Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics. I'd look at some comics scripts (there's one reprinted in the back of Dream Country, although there are an almost infinite number of ways to write a comics sсript, and that's only one.)

And then I'd read a lot of comics and try to work out what works and what doesn't and why. And then I'd start drawing some comics for myself, not for people to see, just to figure out how to get from one panel to the next, one page to the next. If you're going to work with an artist, now's a good time to go and meet artists.

You'll do best if you realise that there is a lot to know. Most bad comics are written by people who don't know that there is anything to learn... (Many of them were written by writers who are successful in other fields.) Having something to say is fairly essential, too.
