I’m pretty sure ALL of these are BISAC codes. (It actually relates to this article in The Guardian)
See more of Tom Gauld’s cartoons here (or, better still, buy his book).

Because You Bought H is for Hawk
(H is for Hawk is actually on my reading list. And I would love a book about horology and depression to be honest)

Ulysses by Stephen Collins
Stephen Collins, who is the author of The Gigantic Beard That Was Evil, wrote about the agonizing process of drawing his weekly comic strip for The Guardian newspaper here:
When I think about making comics, I think of deep vein thrombosis. I don’t think I’ve ever actually *had* DVT, but whenever I embark on my weekly trip to What-The-Actual-XXXXing-XXXX-Am-I-Going-To-Put-In-The-Guardian-This-Week-Land, I can often feel its friendly fingers digging their way into my merrily atrophying leg muscles while I sit, and sit, and sit, and sit, and sit, trying for hours to think of an idea. It feels sort of cold, and tingly. I get cold legs. Cold, cold legs. Are you feeling the inspiration yet?
You can buy prints of the Ulysses strip from the cartoonist’s online shop.

How the Literary Prize Winner is Chosen
Tom Gauld gets to the heart of the matter once again. (Although if Edward St. Aubyn’s recent satire Lost For Words is anything to go by, I would have expected more cock-ups, backstabbing, and adultery!)
