We’re delighted today at BF to run another original comics piece from Tony Wolf (writer/artist) and SirGryphon (colorist). ‘Thaksgiving’ is both another seasonal comics short (after their recent ‘Cobwebs’ here at Broken Frontier) and a neat reminder that there’s no substitute for a good editorial eye…

Tony is absolutely correct!….Having another set of eyes look at something written or drawn is Extremely Important! What’s also important is for a writer or artist to Slow Down while writing or drawing anything. Then, before hitting send or mailing it…Just Read It “Out Loud”, and you’ll quickly ‘hear’ any mistakes! Or look at everything Drawn very Carefully and you’ll See Errors …and then correct them. I’ve made many mistakes in writing too quickly during my career…things which could have been corrected if I’d only been more Patient writing it and then reading it Out Loud! My wife is an excellent Editor, as is our Son Tony and friends who help me!
