Research background
'So Much Tongue is part of a larger thesis on sincerity and autobiographical comics.

It looks at how sincerity in autobiographic truth telling manifests in openness and intimacy, in a kinder, gentler tone (than perhaps authenticity) through both language and gesture; through not only the cartoonist’s words but through the cartoonist’s hand, and handwriting, on the comics page.
