Respectable comics
Graphic novels and comics continue to become more respectable (but don't expect me to wear an FPI tie when I write this!) as the Beat notes that the 27th Women Writers Conference this weekend at the University of Kentucky has a slot on Saturday's itinerary entitled The Graphic Novel Quorum at 3pm, described on their site thus:
"Part literary artist and part visual artist, the graphic novelist works with many media to create new worlds, or to tackle the real world. Leading women of the business, Phoebe Gloeckner, Lauren Weinstein, Amy Kim Ganter, and Lexington's own Sara Turner will talk about it all. Moderated by OSU Cartoon Research Library curator Jenny Robb."
I am unsure if the delegates will imbibe as much real ale as the recent Eastercon folks did, although I hear Kentucky makes a highly enjoyable other drink to lubricate these occassions.
