NEW! TRY THESE MAKE BELIEFS COMIC STARTERS TO BECOME AN ESCAPE ARTIST USING COMICS TO INSPIRE YOUR WRITING!

Dear reader,
For too many years I traveled each day for three hours on dirty, smelly commuter trains and buses from my home to work and back, and would look desperately out the window searching for an escape. Instead of seeing only dilapidated homes and broken cars along the streets, I used my imagination to pretend instead that I was gazing at the Amazon River, watching pink dolphins swim, palm trees sway, or even people fly with their own built wings in the sky.

Such is the power of imagination which allowed me to do this and survive those long rides. On the train, I also would write notes about escaping, which became a book, ‘’How to Become An Escape Artist,’’ excerpts of which appear below. I hope that these Escape Artists comic starters will spark your own imaginations, too, and let you soar away from the daily hustle bustle. Remember, nothing is richer than your own imagination.

I welcome your feedback and suggestions for other writing prompts for this Escape Artists section as well as samples of your work to post. Write to billz@makebeliefscomix.com
Thank you and enjoy your escape.

Sincerely,
Bill Zimmerman
