Painting a spread from my new work, Everlasting, a comic about my creative low period of the last few years after burning out from big projects. 🐦🔥🗝️✨
Feeling excited about my new mini-comic, Everlasting, for SPX 👀 I’ve also been adding this tiny new icon to my other works. 🖌️ 💙 Just in case there’s any question! All about making art by hand over here!!
He painted the diploma for CCS this year and it's so beautiful!! So many little details I keep noticing.
My #hourlycomicsday contribution! Love the tradition and seeing everyone’s day - mundane or riveting! 🤓
Seeing my book A for Effort in the background of an episode of Queer Eye was such a delightful way to start my week 🥹
Bit uneventful this year, but still a fun exercise 🤗 #hourlycomicday #hourlycomicday2025
Today’s my birthday - here’s a look at my comic art that I both shared and made this past year 💗 It’s a nice reminder seeing that I did more than I tell myself (at least in my moments of laziness 😅)🖌️🙌🏻🎨
I’ll be at MICE in Boston this weekend with all my books and mini-comics! I’ll also be teaching my brush inking demo on Saturday - free and open to the public! Can’t wait 🤓 @massmice.bsky.social
I can’t wait to be at CXC/Cartoon Crossroads this weekend in Columbus, OH! I’ve got great graphic novels for kids and a handful of my self-published zines! And even a magical wizard cat tote to hold everything 🐱 Hope to see you there 🤗📚✨
Touring around to some comics shows this fall! Lots of amazing creators at each - I can’t wait!! Come pick up copies of my graphic novels and zines! 🤗📚✨
Very please that I met my goal of finishing two new mini comics (autobio) this summer - one about best friends v everyday friends and the other about having tunnel vision 😌✨ Coming soon to SPX, CXC, and MICE 📚
Some nice things being said about my latest graphic novel, A for Effort 🥹
Really pleased with how my new mini-comic turned out. I’ve never fully painted a comic before and it ended up being super enjoyable for me ☺️🖌️
I did this in my new book, A for Effort. Sorry I don’t have the typeset version in front of me, but it says “has anyone seen our pumpkin king?”
Zoomed with a kids library book club yesterday and it was so amazing to hear from kids who read my work 🥹 Also, they had this cool “owl” camera with multiple lenses that made the screen look like a comics page 🤯
Today’s the day!! You can get a copy of my new middle grade graphic novel, A for Effort, wherever books are sold!!
For my local pals, I’m doing an in-person book launch for A for Effort with my friend Tillie Walden! Mark your calendars and let me doodle in your copy! 🙌🏻✍🏻☺️📚
Getting an advanced copy of A for Effort was such a thrill!! It printed so beautifully - I can’t wait until everyone can see it 😍
Some helpful things you can do for authors (now that it’s getting very close to my book release) 😮 1/2
Apparently it’s Ace Week… have you read my graphic novel, A-Okay, which has an ace protagonist? The sequel comes out in March 2024! 🤗💜
A for Effort will be here on March 5th!! You can preorder it now wherever books are sold. If you’d like a signed and personalized copy from me, you can order through my local VT indie, The Norwich Bookstore. Preorders really help with a book’s success, so I appreciate your support 💜
