On the way home I was also itching for something to do (after all, it took three separate flights to get back), so I wrote a visual journal entry of sorts, projecting everything onto Ravan because griffins are fun to draw.

RACHEL. If you don't print a comic with us, I will never be your friend again. This post was AMAZING. Just do a griffin story in pencil and we'll print it. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE!!! Good. I'm glad you conset.
Rachel- These drawrings knock my socks off (and they're wool socks, which is saying a lot, for what it's worth). Thanks for your advice on my little animation--I was actually thinking the same thing after watching it over and over. I'm gonna make the hand coming out a little slower and methodical, and the pull-back more springy. Thanks for caring!!
"I do not make pictures for children, at least not just for children. I won't play down to them. Too many people grow up. That's the real trouble with the world, too many people grow up. They forget. They don't remember what it's like to be twelve years old. They patronize; they treat children as inferiors. I won't do that. I'll temper a story, yes. But I won't play down, and I won't patronize them."
"I didn't treat my youngsters like frail flowers, and I think no parent should. Children are people, and they should have to reach to learn about things, to understand things, just as adults have to reach if they want to grow in mental stature. Life is composed of lights and shadows, and we would be untruthful, insincere and saccharine if we tried to pretend there were no shadows. Most things are good, and they are the strongest things, but there are evil things, too, and you could do a child no favor by trying to shield it from reality. The important thing is to teach a child that good can always triumph over evil, and that is what our pictures do."
