Moving the posts

I'm moving, sort of. I've shifted most of the material here to my other Blogger bloggy-blog-blog, The Weird Turn Pro (http://proweirdo.blogspot.com/). The main reason: the name. "The weird turn pro" is an apt description of what I had been doing with the blog--namely, showing off my writing--and the moniker "Doctor Bippie" is a little tougher to explain.

Doctor Bippie will stay in business for now. It will probably be a spot for linking to interesting sites and cultural phenomena, and maybe the occassional critique or commentary.

If you've come here as a result of having received my business card, the stuff you want to see--writing samples and such--is probably at The Weird Turn Pro.

In any case, I hope I'll see you around the 'sphere.

Article: "Attack of the Supersized Comic Book" (Chesapeake Family Magazine)

My first print article, about graphic novels in education and mainstream culture, has been published in Chesapeake Family Magazine. It's pared down from a slightly more ambitious--and probably unreadably florid--effort. I am nonetheless proud of it. I'm grateful for the opportunity provided by Chesapeake Family and its editor, Kristen Page-Kirby.

So check it out, and chime in. Comments will be slipped into pH-neutral melamine sleeves and allowed to appreciate in value.
