Witness Live Birth of Furry Monster!

by Hilary Price

Visited  Fun Home cartoonist Alison Bechdel in Vermont this weekend, and discovered that, although we were born nine years apart, we have identical shoulder injuries and anxiety loads!  She showed me her basement lair where she is working on her next  memoir.  (If you have not yet read her first memoir, Fun Home, pick it up.)  Saw inked pages, but alas, my shirt-button spy camera ran out of film so I cannot reproduce a sneak peak.

However, she did ask me to draw something using her pen tablet, and she has a program that captures the drawing on the screen.  She has posted it on her blog, but you can behold the live birth below….
