Writing Fictionalized Memoir and Graphic Novels with Sarah Winifred Searle - The Greatest Thing
b'
Marissa chats with Sarah Winifred Searle about her new graphic novel - THE GREATEST THING - and her contribution to the SERENDIPITY anthology, "Keagan's Heaven on Earth," as well as some reasons that Sailor Moon was so creatively nourishing for many people in our generation; the many different paths one can take to reach their dream of becoming a writer, illustrator, or creator;\\xa0 how fictionalized memoir can be seen as either a giving or a self-centered endeavor (and both interpretations are totally valid), and how much the genre should or should not stray from real life; using a story-within-a-story as metaphor to highlight some of the larger themes of the book; and how technology details help to establish your time period within a specific, almost-contemporary setting. Also... Valentines and secret admirers!
