When I opened my copy of ‘Writers Dream Kit’ (part of the Write Brothers ‘Dramatica‘ line), I found a 32-page comic book inside. I think it’s their version of an instruction booklet. Here’s a page explaining about ‘storyforming.’

What a creative way to get people to read the instructions! (If only text books were set up like that!)

Thanks Tiffany!

    For those who want to read the entire comic book, you can download it as a PDF at: http://dramatica.com/theory/addl_materials/index.html

    Their standard text book can be found at: http://dramatica.com/theory/theory_book/dtb.html

    If you enjoy these, I highly recommend the daily dramatica blog ( http://www.dailydramatica.com/ ). I reviewed all of these some time ago at: http://headinside.blogspot.com/2006/07/review-dramatica.html

    If only indeed…

    Check out Larry Gonick’s Cartoon History of… series. The Modern World (volume 1) just came out.

    Wow, they managed to make the cartoon really, really boring.
