Rosenfeld Media was definitely busy before Christmas. They released two new titles last month, one of which being “See What I Mean: How to Use Comics to Communicate Ideas” by Kevin Cheng. In the spirit of things, we’ve partnered up once again to give 15 of you lucky people a free copy….
I love readmill. Hope I’ll win a free copy :-)
What’s happening? That’s the usual question you have when you want to catch up with the likeminded people you follow on Readmill. The feed definitely helps, but today’s updates introduce new and beautiful ways for you to stay in the loop.

When the weather outside is frightful, and the driving’s not delightful, and you need to get your butt home, “Let is snow, let is snow, let is snow”!
When you’re trying to copy edit, but your editor’s like, “forget it,” and you work at a tiny hole, ”Let is snow, let is snow, let is snow”!
“I would say they are more inspirers than influences. When I am stuck with a sentence that isn’t fully born, it isn’t yet there, I sometimes think, How would Dickens go at this sentence, how would Bellow or Nabokov go at this sentence? What you hope to emerge with is how youwould go at that sentence, but you get a little shove in the back by thinking about writers you admire. I was once winding up a telephone conversation with Saul Bellow and he said, Well you go back to work now, and I said, All right, and he said, Give ’em hell. And it’s Dickens saying, Give ’em hell. Give the reader hell. Stretch the reader.” —Martin Amis
