Petite has taken over the reins at MichiGirl.com.au for the time being, photographing a new item everyday that may be of interest to Melbourne or Sydney consumers. There are apparently 1200 people on the database already, who received the daily email.
This particular consumer was happy to make short work of Tuesday's entry, once it had been photographed on our table.
I suspect it is going to be a costly venture for Petite / Michi girl. I admired this shirt when it arrived via email on Wednesday. I admired it in a more close up way when Petite / Michi girl came home wearing it that evening.
I don't only appear when you're feeling anxious, you know. I might have good news once in a while.
Do you have any today?
No, it's just about the anxieties today, sorry.
Well, let's get on with it then.
So, when are you going to stop reading and actually start writing that paper?
This weekend, I swear. I'm going to write a rough draft.
Do you think you can remember how to write an academic paper?
Oh yeah, no worries. It'll be fine. I'm sure I'll remember once I get started.
What about this comic strip thing? Are you seriously considering adding a comic strip to an academic paper?
That I'm not so sure about.
I knew I'd get there eventually.
Do you think it's a dumb idea?
Well, it's certainly an unconventional approach.
But the paper is about visual materials in blogs and this is a major part of my own blog, so using the comic format for part of the paper seems relevant.
No one else does it.
They might. Or they might in the future. Scott McCloud presents theoretical material in a comic format and it works really well.
Yes, but he's a comic artist. He knows the language of comics. And you're....
