How could I pass that up! If you wouldn't mind, I'd be most obliged. The request was actually written for the sole purpose of having a tie-back ending to the piece (which we work on in class too). I actually enjoy creating lessons. It's one of the artistic elements to teaching that I find most enjoyable. Thanks for the space Gary, thanks for the inspiration John, and thanks for the offer Howard! Dialogueless Schlocks? How could I pass that up! If you wouldn’t mind, I’d be most obliged.

For some reason it never occurred to me to donate some de-worded comic strips. Probably because they tend to be lewd.

It's awesome that my simple little project could achieve such wonderful results in a real school. Thank you, Robert! Also, you can get more templates by going to the CCP website: http://ccproject.comicgenesis.com/templates.html Still no formal lesson plans, yet. I'm going to write those up soon, though.

Do you just want dialog-less strips, with blank talk-bubbles, or are you looking for something that somehow specifically targets a particular writing skill. Note that I have no idea how to do the latter. The former is just a quick pass through Photoshop. “Now if someone would just write those lessons down and put them in a place accessible enough for us to steal, we wouldn’t have to make ‘em all up as we go.”
