In October's lecture the Fan Brothers will discuss their creative process, from initial inspiration, to working on the final book. Their latest book, "Barnaby Unboxed!", is Terry and Eric's fifth book as both writers and artists, and Devin's second book. Over the course of making those books, a pattern emerged as to how they approach the creative process. Every writer and artist faces the same challenge when confronted with the blank page. Where do stories and ideas come from? As three brothers, working collectively, that challenge comes with its own unique set of hurdles, and also benefits. Sometimes, it turns out, three heads are better than one. For more infomation, please click here
