But given Burns' writing on webcomics is
online, it makes it hard to quantify the credentials of his asserted
claim to expertness.
This is what the arbitration committee had to say about Eric Burns in
a finding of fact in the Webcomics case:
"Eric Burns is an established writer on webcomics who has a history of
published writing in comics, short fiction, role-playing games,
magazines, and poetry. He is a columnist for Comixpedia and an
occasional writer for the Webcomics Examiner, and runs his own
comic-oriented blog, Websnark."
I note from his Wikipedia article that he holds a BA Cum Laude in
English Literature. He worked on games and publications for Steve
Jackson Games. So he has a lot more qualifications to write about
writing than just being a blogger.
