This isn't a problem in graphic novels, as you have jagged blocks where you can print "zong" "zap" or just write in the panel, "boing" "bonk" "thud" etc.
But if you use those words, as I've learned in class, it can clutter the writing. But what about sounds you can't describe with little words like that? Like...the sound kids make when they strum their fingers over their lips. Or just one finger over their lips? True it could be described like a low-throttle boat engine or something. But some of those descriptions don't send the right picture or confuse the reader.
So if you've had any of these problems and/or know the remedies, feel free to post. Lots of space.
Thanks!
