So now we have a Tumblr.
It was bound to happen, really. There are plenty of questions, issues and misconceptions about criminal law; we like explaining things; we like drawing things (poorly); people like learning stuff with pictures… So doing a webcomic sort of guide to criminal law just seemed natural.
And making a Tumblr out of it makes more sense than posting them here on the blog. The voices are just too different to put them both in the same place. And Tumblr’s more of a visual medium.
We’re calling it “The Criminal Lawyer’s Guide to Criminal Law (with pictures!)” We are very creative with titles, as you probably are aware.
We’ve got several posts already planned out, and the first one is up here. They’re going to be very rudimentary at first, but soon we expect to have worked through to some tougher concepts.
It’s silly, sure… but it’s fun. We’ll get a kick out of it, even if nobody else does.
Not only is this quite good, but I can see a book coming of it. A children’s book perhaps. Maybe cover the angry mob in white fur and have them “pat the bunny.” Or something harder, more cutting, and have them “rub the rock?”
You guys can work out the details, but very well done.
Congrats on making the top 100 blogs in the ABA Journal annual survey!
Thanks!
