ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Yoohoo! I'd like to say Hiya! and Thank you! to all the schools, libraries and museums I've visited over the summer. I hope to see you guys again at some trade shows, you know that you can always meet me at any of the events that I list above. Of course, if your school will have me back, let me know! And if you have any feedback to give, please email me or leave it with the lovely guys at Authors Abroad if they organised the visits.
Well, the summer has been ridiculously busy, finally my workload is winding down a little. Looking forward to settling down into some proper illustration work AT HOME rather than on the run, jet-setting around, hehe. Don't get me wrong, I love travelling but it does make getting books done a little difficult!
Domo: The Manga (Tokyopop) has just been released! It is a very silly full-colour anthology which I contributed to. Other artists include other Tokyopop stalwarts, Jared & Lindsay Hodges and REM. And my latest comic baby with Sweatdrop was the anthology Talking to Strangers written by Fehed Said, a truly amazing anthology featuring work from Faye Yong, Wing Yun Man, Nana Li and Chloe Citrine. It is AWESOME and has caused nightmares. Cool. Head to my Comics Section for purchasing information! If you buy directly from Sweatdrop's shop, we will heart you forever! We take paypal, credit cards and ship internationally ^w^ Or you can wait until you see me or the team at a UK event!
In other news, I've been working on lots of very fun children's books - specifically, Girls FC (Walker) by Helena Pielichaty. Really recommend this series for 9-12yrs, even I personally enjoyed them at my age :3 Very characterful and not just fluff. Head to my Other Projects page for more info!
Finally, check out some of my latest arts! Only a couple of things, but I hope you like them anyway XD
