I amassed quite a stack of 3x5 cards with notes to myself on book making, and for some laughs or insights I decided to share some of them with you here.
Creativity is subversive.
Stand out. Or get lost.
Indecisiveness means you are not listening carefully to your emotions.
Color is a tool, not a crutch.
Manipulate the viewer.
The character is king.
Do more drawing than thinking. Then think.
The page needing something does NOT mean adding crap to it.
Stay simple.
Put no strength where it does not belong. Does it support the story?
Is it remarkable?
OK is not acceptable. OK sucks.
--I'm not going to claim my work reflects these fine principles, but only that I strive to attain them. Anyone else willing to share their insights into making books?
