This is an old essay I wrote for the Editing class I took back at Melbourne.We had to analyse the production values of a book, I think. I managed to sneak in some propaganda about comics, because this was towards the beginning of my comic-lovin' days. Stuck here because I'm planning on giving a talk on comics to my Editing class next semester. Well, I'd originally planned a talk on the infantalisation of the fairy tale in Victorian England, but I think comics will be less dry and have more comic general appeal. (Jeez... comics on the brain, me)

In other news, all my friends (<--slight exaggeration. But both Buhfly and Billradish have no internet presence currently, as they are too busy having fun, and Steph has taken off somewhere) have left me and I am all alone. Woe.
Also, to those of you who are in Melbourne, come along to VIBE tomorrow! It's at 123 Smith St, Collingwood, and from 4-6 they'll be a poetry reading, with guest...um...poets, and Declan Fay from some radio station that might be RRR, I can't remember, as MC. Door prizes! Alcohol at the bar!
[Edit: I was just doing this "How well do you know Rocky Horror?" quiz (damn near perfectly, thanks so much], when I finally realised the significance of Frank's signature jewellery. A pearl necklace. I can't believe it took me 6 years to work out that visual pun.]
