>>>Just like my own above note on "The Golden Christmas Tree", I find
this is a much too short summary on how Barks did his work.
As an artist yourself, you would be very disappointed if you would find
a book about yourself, containing only one page saying "This is how Don
Rosa makes his stories."
So, *please* try to be a bit careful when you write about other persons
than yourself.
As usual, I'm not remotely close to understanding what irks you. Obviously
anyone would have the sense to know that I had no intention of summing up
Barks' entire working methodology or 60-70 year career in two sentences in
one paragraph. I would not be disappointed in a book that had one page
about "This is how Don Rosa makes his stories" if that's all the room the
book had to devote to the subject in the course of all else it contained.
I'm not writing a doctorate thesis here, none of us are, we are exchanging
brief messages. I don't actually even have time to do *that* much, but I
sometimes fit it in. So, *please* relax.
