A laugh‑out‑loud, behind‑the‑scenes romp through comics, pop culture, and the writer’s life. In But I Digress, Peter David turns his razor‑sharp wit and encyclopedic knowledge of comics into a collection of essays that are equal parts memoir, critique, and comic‑strip commentary. Whether he’s skewering industry absurdities, riffing on fan culture, or recounting the oddball moments that shape a writer’s day, David writes with a conversational energy that makes every anecdote feel immediate and entertaining.
This volume gathers short, punchy pieces that move at a brisk clip—perfect for readers who like to dip in and out between errands or read straight through for a sustained laugh. Expect irreverent humor, candid reflections on the creative process, and affectionate jabs at the people and institutions that make fandom both maddening and irresistible. The book balances sharp satire with genuine affection: beneath the jokes are clear insights about storytelling, collaboration, and the strange economics of making art for a living.
