## Resource

Welcome to On Writing! A podcast that interviews authors from all over the country to talk about their books and their journeys in becoming authors. Each episode will have a different guest. We will be interviewing authors of both fiction and non fiction, and all genres will be explored throughout the show's run. This episode's guest is cartoonist Dee Parson, also known as $upr Dee. We talk about Dee's emergence from notebook doodles to being featured in newspapers across the country, how he creates a story in just a few panels, and how Garfield played an important role in Dee's journey.
