A Talk on Graphic Memoir by Nye Wright
Writer/artist Nye Wright came to Orbital Comics last month to celebrate the release of his new book, Things To Do In A Retirement Home Trailer Park. While here, Nye gave an interesting talk about graphic memoir and the book’s creation, which we recorded for those unable to attend.
