“This Might Surprise You: A Breast Cancer Story” is out now.

It’s a graphic memoir: comics can do things that no other medium can. I’ve tried to be as honest as possible while also making you laugh. I’ll break your heart while giving you a hug.

Buy it here:

All too often I’ve noticed that the men who are most strident about social justice online are often not very good at treating the women in their real lives with basic respect.

Lol. Dating apps are like this, esp men my age. I ghost the ones that don’t ask questions. Sometimes they reappear and say “what happened?” I say, “you didn’t seem very curious about me so I assumed you weren’t interested.” They protest! They are keen! And still don’t follow up with a question.

Apropos of nothing I was just reminded of the time a decade ago when my brothers made a billboard advert with MS Paint:

arstechnica.com/gaming/2015/...
This is probably the world’s largest billboard created with MS Paint
The billboard is 36m2 and advertises game development software.

Moral righteousness isn’t always good. In fact it’s best avoided altogether.

I’m a Quaker and one of my favourite extracts from Quaker Faith and Practice is: “think it possible that you may be mistaken”.

It’s humbling to admit that we were wrong. But better to experience that discomfort instead of forcing damaging ideologies onto the world.

Ooh! Our #ColossiveCartographies are up for Best Periodical Series - which makes us very pleased and proud on an otherwise sub-optimal day.

Thank you @brokenfrontier.bsky.social 😊

I’ve often wondered: why do these people want all the social media attention? I do, but I have a book to sell. If you’re not selling anything… why? Is it an ego thing? A cry for relevance in the attention economy?

Not to blow my trumpet too much (ok maybe a little) but I completed my graphic memoir while in active cancer treatment (and then got it published).

Given all that I have … very little sympathy for those who use the state of the world as an excuse for not making art.
