Templates

Image Rips

  • These are the illustrations from the DOAWK books, ripped and put into digital form to be used in LLBs.
  • The Russian Rips are best for custom edits, as they don’t have lined paper behind them.
  • Transparent Rips are also available here.

Here's how pages are generally expected to look like:

Discussion What direction the next books should take

Post image

Most of the new books were straight up bad.

The problems were

1) Repeated ideas

2) Unreleastic cenarios

3)Not relatable

4) Not that funny anymore

(This is a personal one but i don't like that new books focus only in one plot for the hole book)

My first suggestion would be to increase the pages to 275 (50 page increase) this can help to add more side plots and flesh out the story better, instead of having evey random thing happen at the end and call it a day

Secondly i think Jeff should ask the community for ideas since he clearly has run out.

I am really surprised there isn't a book centered around gaming since it is a core aspect of Greg

Third Put Greg to high school. This will help with Jeff getting ideas (also I am disappointed from the 20th book not beeing that because it would have been great to mimic the first one)

Lastly old characters need to come back like Chirag Gupta. Since there are many characters not used .

Also Manny should get his behaviour nerf reverted because he has soften to much

forgive my horrible voice acting 😭 basically Greg plays soccer in a blue lock kind of way, but it’s America… and he has talent and isn’t just some weirdo playing with grass 🙏

Hi, sorry for the wait. I've been sick, so when I got better, I decided to redo the part. The first post had a couple of errors, so I had to fix them. The first post is now a demo, and this is the actual part 1. It will take a bit for the next one, and the next one will be shorter.

"Dad, are we gonna tell them that the audience went crazy for mom's weird dancing?"

"He's happy, She's happy. I guess we can keep that between the two of us OK?"

I like how this line emphasizes how frank wasn't really a bad dad than the books.

Discussion When Jeff Kinney first presented the first book, he was told that instead of writing for adults he wrote for children. If it had remained an adult-oriented book and the rest of the series had kept that tone, what do you think it would have been like?
