Q9. Have you found any good resources around graphic novels? I just happened upon this cool section in The Guardian that reviews a graphic novel every month - https://t.co/Umg1HjGDHR #TWSOchat #graphicnovels

[SFU Creative Writing @TWSSFU]

Q8. If you were going to pitch a graphic novel, who would your target audience be and why? Do you think it'd be easier to get one published if it was targeted towards a particular market or for a target audience that you are familiar with writing for? #TWSOchat #graphicnovels

[SFU Creative Writing @TWSSFU]

Q7. What kind of illustrative style would you like for your ideal graphic novel? It could be done in hand drawn line art, digital illustration, some kind of mixed media, watercolour etc. Here are some examples - https://t.co/E9MDjYQvfT #TWSOchat
