Dear Reader,
Welcome to Page 9 0f Goatwater. As of today, Goatwater is now officially a weekly webcomic! Page 10 will be posted next Tuesday, May 31, 2011 and then it will be officially time for the 10 page milestone celebration, celebrating sharing 10 pages of these wild, hand-painted visions with you every other week - and there's so much more to come. How will I celebrate? With a cup of goat water of course, if I can find any, and maybe a little Guiness, or at the very least a straight shot of dark Antiguan or Puerto Rican rum in honor of and appreciation for the love, light, strength and imagination of my ancestors.
As Goatwater goes weekly, know that I will occasionally take a week off, but for the most part Goatwater will be updated every Tuesday. Please feel free to spread the word about Goatwater and once again thank you for all of your feedback and support. Click here to start at the beginning. Below, I've also included another rough excerpt from the collection of essays on creativity that I'm putting together. You may browse around on other pages of this webcomic to to read other essay excerpts. Have a great week! Email any questions or comments to bassacards(at)yahoo.com.
Uncivilized Storytelling
Certain kinds of stories are experiences and the memories of experiences that occur inside the spaces located in between things. These stories are often buried, dream-like events or deliberately hidden ones whose remnants wait in various degrees of patience to become unhinged. If a story like this manages to escape its condition of oppression, the storyteller, if he or she does not break away and run, assumes the responsibility of story watcher, story catcher, story manipulator as he or she wrestles with the real and enormous presence of what has long been misinterpreted and branded as evil or invisible. Even the most dedicated, tenacious story-catcher who attempts to tame this wild, free, angry, fantastic, horny, insatiable story-beast will do so, to no avail. Full or at least partial cooperation with the story-beast becomes possible however, once the story-catcher submits and surrenders, humbly and mercilessly, to all he or she somehow suspects, but truly does not know.
