H: Rex, what do you do if you’ve got over a hundred pages of unused comics art work?
R: Do you mean the art work that you so cruelly rejected from our John Barleycorn book, Howard?
H: Yes.
R: I don’t know. Burn it...?
H: Rex. Put that can of petrol down!
R: Why?
H: Because I’ve got an idea. Instead burning your art work, why don’t we offer it to other people to write graphic short stories with?
R: I’m intrigued, Howard, tell me more.
H: Well, I’ve been working on a sister blog to John Barleycorn Must Die, called John Barleycorn Must Live...
R: Genius!
H: ... where we give the art to our readers to write their own stories with. Then we'll post their finished stories on the new site so that others can read and comment on them...and we'll post short stories of our own from time to time, like the one below.
R: I’m liking that! But how do our readers participate, Howard?
H: Simple, Rex. They visit John Barleycorn Must Live, where everything is explained!
R: So, dear Readers, if any of you have ever wanted to write a graphic short story but have lacked the art, now is your chance! Visit the new site, and take part! John Barleycorn Lives!

Blogger says John Barleycorn Must Live is for invited viewers only - can you fix the glitch? x
ReplyDeleteAndy, thanks for pointing that out - left over from when the blog was under construction! Should be fixed now.
