Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for November 08, 2015
Transcript:
Arrgh! Ellen, how do you handle writer's block? Writer's block? I'm supposed to do a creative writing assignment, but I'm getting NOWHERE! Instead of a STORY, all I've got is a BLANK PAGE! What do YOU do when you can't think of anything to write about? That never happens to me. I've HEARD of writer's block, but I've never experienced it personally. I ALWAYS have plenty of good ideas. *smirk* But her smirk instantly disappeared when her younger brother smashed the pile into her face.

I think Ellen is lying. Everyone experiences writer’s block at some point in their life. :P

When I get writers block, I write a whole page about having writers block and eventually I get bored of that and figure out something else.

Strange, In HS I struggled to write 300 words. Now when I write a letter to the editor, I struggle to keep at or below 300 which is the limit.

Got a problem with the last frame. If her face is covered with the pie, how would he know if the smirk was still there. She could be smirking through the pie, but it would not be apparent to others. Smirking and yelling now, that takes some effort.

New girlfriend is having a calming affect on Nate’s relations with other females. He might even be able to behave like a human around Gina and Jenny, Mrs. Godfrey.
Don’t even want to imagine the misogynist overtones his music band “Enslave the Mollusk” conjures.

Who was it who apologised for writing such a long letter, as he didn’t have time to write a short one? Churchill? Pascal?

Ellen is a bad older sister. Her brother asked her for advice and she just tries to makes him feel stupid.
