PANEL ONE: Meet Dylan Croft, a young red-headed man who wears a ponytail and dresses like a thrift store pirate. He smiles at the audience.
NARR:
My name is Dylan Croft. I live in Prince Edward Island. This is my story.
PANEL TWO: A picturesque aerial shot of Coven Cove.
NARR:
First, let me tell you about the town I live in. It was founded in 1785, a while after the first settlers came here.
PANEL THREE: An antique photo of the town’s founders, dressed in 1785 garb. However, they’re all smiling. They are holding a painted sign that says “TOWN COUNCIL.” and the bottom of the picture frame is labeled “Our Founders.” There should be an equal number of men and women.
NARR:
But what makes it special is that the town founders were witches. Yup. All of them.
PANEL FOUR: An antique photo of people stepping off a small sailing ship onto the dock at Coven Cove, 1745.
NARR:
They’d come fleeing persecution for witchcraft; that horrible business in Salem, Massachusetts may have come and gone, but anti-witch sentiment was still high.
PANEL FIVE: The town founders holding a ritual around a bonfire. One of them holds what looks like a book of magic, and is reading aloud from it; the others all seem to be chanting with arms raised.
NARR:
So they decided to found a town where not only was practicing witchcraft allowed, but respected.
PANEL SIX: A picturesque sign, freshly painted and with old world charm, that reads “Welcome to Coven Cove.”
NARR:
And they named it, quite appropriately, “Coven Cove.”

How To Make Your Comic Better – 1
I want to start sharing some of the stuff I’ve picked up along this journey of creating comics. I’m no master, and so I must eagerly recommend you check out such amazing resources as Words for Pictures by Brian M. Bendis and Understanding Comics by Scott McCloud and basically every resource you can get your hands on– always read, always learn, always strive to improve!– but even so, I think it might be of some worth to share some real, on-the-ground indie comics experience with my readers.
At the Panel One convention this year, I was privileged to have a table beside Steve Colle, who among other things is an editor for comics. He had a great set-up on his table with laminated, published comic pages and a grease pencil- and invited folks to circle what they thought was wrong with the comics pages. It was a great game designed to help us see the page better, to really understand what we were looking at. I felt like I learned more listening to Steve in one day than I had absorbed in a year!
As a writer, I have to plan a page in my mind, see the flow of action and ensure that what I write is going to make sense visually. However, I don’t control the outcome as such: that’s the artist’s purview, and hopefully they and I have reached that magical telepathy that lets us each understand what the other meant. In a best-case scenario, the page I get back is a wonderful fusion of what I intended blended with the artist’s unique flavour and vision.
Sometimes though, it needs tweaking. I need to stress that this is not a failure on anyone’s part– it’s a progression. It’s step three of the process: Write, Draw, Edit. If you don’t think your work could benefit from editing, you’re fooling yourself.
