Draw a comic strip that tells the story of your current situation. Use stick figures, if you're not great with drawing. Include all elements of the story in plot form: the beginning, rising action, climax, and conclusion. (Even if the characters are in the middle of the story, you can help them create the conclusion you want.) Take a photo of your comic and post in your favorite forum.
A-magic Bonus:
Draw several comics that represent several differing outcomes and envision the characters in your strip reacting to each outcome. What would they do to respond? How would they feel? What would they say to one another?

Feel free to share your favorite meals in the comments - or on your favorite online forum.
