Welcome everyone, I'm Steve Spalding and this is another episode of Steve Read's Stories. Tonight, we'll be looking at a letter written in 1998 by Ren and Stimpy creator John K to a 14 year old Amir Avni. Today Amir works as a professional animator, and has helped produce shows like Grojband and Total Drama All Stars. In 1998, however, he was just a kid with a dream, and John K not only took the time to write him back, but also gave him some pointers on drawing and sent him a book! I love this letter not only because of the story...

Today Amir works as a professional animator, and has helped produce shows like Grojband and Total Drama All Stars. In 1998, however, he was just a kid with a dream, and John K not only took the time to write him back, but also gave him some pointers on drawing and sent him a book!

I love this letter not only because of the story behind it, but also because it's a nice How To guide for burgeoning animators, from one of the legends in the field.

I hope you enjoy.
