Animated music video I put together from my 17 years of experience as a helpdesk agent.
Can anyone give an example of a good AND a bad comic script? Can you explain why the script is good or bad? Is there a site that I can go to to see such examples?
"Wonderful comments. Thanks for sharing."
"Yup Buzz, you're right. That was something I thought of the second I hit post, but didn't have time to come back around to clarify. You could also have a "good convoluted story" - if that is the intent."
"Good vs. Bad = Clarity vs. Convoluted."
"Not at all, sir...and I apologize if it came off that way. It was probably my reply to the folks I WORK with! LOL I teach in the Writing for Entertainment MFA program at Full Sail University. It's primarily a film writing program (one of the reasons…"

Absolutely.

"Thanks Steve, and I didn't take anything you said as "preaching" to me. I appreciate your comments. That is one thing that I do not do enough of, fun reading, so I'll need to find some time to do so. Steve Crespo said:

Hi ya, I know you like Christian comics so I know you'll love The Word for WORD Bible Comic, (Unabridged, historically accurate graphic novel of the Bible with a high view of scripture. For ages 15+)
To complete the first book I need your help, as I am raising funds on Kickstarter. My passion is to get God's Word in full into the hands of young believer and unbelievers and comic lovers of all ages, in the hope they will come to really know God. Please check it out at the KS page, it's going well but I still need lots of backers so I hope as a CCAS member you'll please pledge to support this project...

Welcome aboard! I'm Scott A. Shuford, one of the CCAS Board members. I want to stop in and say thanks for being involved with CCAS!
If you have any input or would like to be involved with anything in particular, please let me and Eric Jansen (Membership Coordinator for CCAS) know by contacting us both through the site.
We are looking for someone to serve as the prayer coordinator for the group. We are also looking for writers who would like to interview industry people and write up articles for us. If either of those tug on your heart, then please contact me.
To see a bit more about me, check out my profile here on the site. I'm looking forward to getting to know you better.
Can you post or join in a forum discussion topic, post your own blog entry or upload your art or video now? :)
At Your Service,
Scott A. Shuford

Consider the words of C.S. Lewis:
"If there lurks in most modern minds the notion that to desire our own good and to earnestly hope for the enjoyment of it is a bad thing, I suggest that this notion has crept in from Kant and the Stoics and is no part of the Christian faith. Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased."
