Further Discussion of Dual Hemisphere Access.....

As a writer-artist, I've mastered both sides of my brain. The only thing I HAVEN'T figured out is how to Integrate and Unite Both Sides of The Brain....

In other words, not JUST creating art and images, and not JUST creating writing and art, but identifying and producing work that represents BOTH AT THE SAME TIME. Magazines, comics, TV, film, books. Anything that uses words and pictures simultaneously. 

Then I "Invented" an exercise that integrates both hemispheres in one exercise. Simply go the "caption writing" route. Pick an image of any sort, real or imagined, and write a story or narrative about it. Make a story or book about it, or make it a chapter IN a book. Most people think in terms of Left OR Right, not Left-AND-Right. 

This is a great exercise if you're a comic book creator, as you have to think like a filmmaker, in both a literary and visual-artistic sense, with both Content AND Form.
