Guest post by Priyanga Singh. The beginning of love My introduction to cartoons was in daily news paper strips, At that time I was very young and illiterate (by which I mean I wasn’t going to school yet) so, technically, cartoons were the first thing I learnt: ‘doodlogenesis’ occurred before I could write a word.
