Creativity and Children
I would like to introduce you all to Axe Cop:
http://www.axecop.com/
Axe Cop is a comic, written and illustrated by brothers. The writer just turned six years old, and his twenty-nine year old brother does the illustrations.
In Learn 1 a lot of people talked about the importance of maintaining an almost child-like openness to creativity. And I think that for those of us that do not have to deal with kids on a daily basis it is easy to forget exactly what that can mean - we tend to make it more whimsical and less outright bizarre.
Axe Cop is creative - it is also violent and politically incorrect. There are good guys and bad guys and an avocado soldier with a unicorn horn (he transforms a lot though).
It reminded me of a little girl I know whose Halloween costume this year was: a mouse in a spaceship with an alligator.
Anyway, hopefully some you will find the comics funny, and others the glimpse into a creative six year old mind engaging. If you want somewhere to start I suggest this:
http://axecop.com/index.php/acask/read/ask_axe_cop_10/
and this one:
http://axecop.com/index.php/acask/read/ask_axe_cop_15/
It's a little weird, but bear with me. I'm curious to see what everyone thinks.

Ridiculous! Funny, but a little formulaic.

@Nick I figure the kid has time to work on the finer points of creative writing. I can't wait to see what he's doing in twenty years. :)
Thanks for commenting!

In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out.

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
