As an instructor at The Center for Cartoon Studies since its founding in 2005, long-time cartoonist/writer/editor/publisher Stephen R. Bissette has been privileged to witness (and, at times, participate in) the creative process of various cartoonists as they created work that focused on their own personal health issues and histories.

I keep visual fieldnotes as part of my anthropological field research and have written about this. The practice has also led me to the field of book arts and I now make (and have encouraged students to make) what I call anthro-artists' books. As for my interest in comics: How might I move from visual fieldnotes (which have a particular narrative structure but are largely private) to a more public form?
