Teresa Logan (aka the Laughing Redhead) opens Etsy shop
ANGELS FOR SALE: my Etsy shop be openby LaughingRedhead |
I have opened my ETSY shop and filled it with drawings and collages of iconic women and angels.
More cartoons to come, of course! I'm always doing my cartoon humor . . . but I obsessively draw angels and women, too. (You'll probably see some similarities!)

Wednesday, September 25, 2013 | Graphic Novel Book Group | Rust, Vol. 1 by Lepp |
That's all to say that the Graphic Novel Bookgroup is interested in all of the above. From the popular and lauded to the obscure, we try to read and discuss books which offer enough of a substantial story to encourage discussion, disagreement, and criticism. We focus as much on the story (narrative and dialogue) as we do on the art (drawing style and layout of the frames). The group is composed of young and old, male and female, those who've spent their lives immersed in the genre and others who've only read a few. Excellent graphic works are becoming increasingly available—thanks to a growing readership and reviewers who are willing to praise this expanding field—so come and join us, and read our recommendations at www.politics-prose.com/graphic-novels.
