Did it work?

Did me pointing randomly and looking confused get you to look at my work?

I had people thinking I’m a bot and know why? Because I draw, and create, things in multiple styles.

Anyway, here’s a glimpse of what I make, along with a picture of me seeing as I’m a real person.

Or, at least, I was the last time I looked.

Hi everyone.

Do you know the best part about being an artist and author?

Yes, the creating is a HUGE part but my favourite part is meeting, and chatting with, other creative people.

Sometimes a different point of view can really make your own art pop and come to life.

Whenever I share my work, I tend to get a lot of insulting trolls making the same, tired comments.

You know what though? I’m still creating, I’m still writing, I’m still drawing, and I don’t intend on stopping now.

Just remember, there are people with feelings behind the videos, and posts, that you trolls feel the need to denigrate and insult.

Maybe, just maybe, grow up and open your eyes into accepting that people are different and all deserve the same rights and respect.

These pictures, taken by the wonderful folk at takeonmediauk , are from the last last friday lcb event I did in November.

Hopefully, I’ll be able to do some more of them this year. It was so much fun.

I've finally been able to add some new prints to my shop, and this one is inspired by the brave members of the LGBTQ+ community who, at the Stonewall riots, fought for their rights to be heard.

One of my new designs. Debating whether to put it in the shop or not. I like the simplicity of it, the message, and if you look closely, the 0’s and 1’s that make up the heart.

It’s inspired by the song The Code by Nemo, one that really spoke to me as a nonbinary person.

Ain’t nature gorgeous?

Weirdly, book 3 of the Mother, Dearest trilogy, “Hell, as Seen from Heaven” has gotten that many reviews but that’s okay.

Hopefully it’ll find its audience, alongside the first two books.

I’m thinking of changing the covers/blurbs to give them a bit of a refresh.

What do you think?

The gremlins have taken the TARDIS, I repeat, the gremlins have taken the TARDIS!

Some of my favourite prints are my most personal.

This one is my attempt to show how jumbled my brain gets when in a depressive moment, with one eye looking towards only the dark moments, and the other looking to the beauty in my sadness.

I’ve always loved how my work looks out in the real world. The colours just pop so nicely.

Always lovely when you find your very queer urban fantasy series has been included in a “Queer Books to Read” list.

Heart is full.

Can’t remember if I posted this or not, so here we are.

My son challenged me to draw Batman in ten minutes or less. It’s messy but I kinda like it. Definitely something I’ll be doing again.

My son, Cyrus, set me the challenge of drawing Batman in ten minutes or less.

You know what? I don’t hate it.

Maybe it’s something new for me to do every now and then.

People seem to like it when I talk about the inspiration behind my work.

This one, quite simply, is inspired by someone saying “queers like you are ruining comic books for us straight folks” and it made me wonder.

I didn’t realise I had that much power as a nonbinary/pansexual writer/artist.

Working on another sketch cover today and I’m actually really happy with how it’s starting to look.

Working on what is the only second sketch cover I’ve ever done but I think that my confidence is slowly returning with it, so that’s nice. 😊

Brb, off to help Batman.

Do you want to read an action-packed urban fantasy series full of twists, turns, diverse casts of characters, and a talking half-dead deer?

Then check out the Mother, Dearest series!

Did an art event last night and this print, one of my mental health ones, sold out along with two other prints.

I’ve never had a sell out at a show before. It’s a lovely feeling.

My new A4 prints came today and I think I’m in love.

The colours pop, they all look different, and it’s made me want to pick up pencils and pens again to do sketches etc to go alongside them at the shows I do.

These will be available from my stalls and from my online shop too.

Love you all!
