Latest News: June 2026

CONS: I've got the printed version of "Sister Holmes", my Viz one-shot, and will be selling it at all the upcoming cons in June/July. I'll be at Supanova at the weekend of 19-21st June, and a bunch of one-day shows in July. See the sidebar for the shows I'm going to.

COMPETITIONS/NEXT MANGA: I'm pausing my work on "Sunset Protocol" to submit to a new manga competition (59 pages), and I'm halfway through. This is the hardest part of the job, but I'm on schedule. Still stuck on the last 10 pages (of 40) left to do on Chapter 2 (of 12) of "Sunset Protocol", the supernatural mystery-thriller and quasi-sequel to "The Dreaming", but I've temporarily paused this for a manga contest entry due in July. I'm close to finishing posting Chapter 1 on Instagram and my other social media, and after that I'm going to cut back o this for work.

AWARDS: In April, I won the Spirit of Zelda Award, from the Zelda Awards, which celebrates women in comics. It's in the category of +10 years in the biz, so thank you to everyone who voted for me! Congratulations to all the winners too! Watch the ceremony on Youtube. Meanwhile, "The Dreaming" v1-2 has also been listed on the NSW Premier Reading Challenge list! These lists are screened and once you get on, you don't go off, so hopefully I use get onto the reading lists of other states too.

I’ve been nominated for the Zelda Awards! This is a prestigious award for achievement of women in comics, and I’m in the “Spirit of Zelda” category for +10 years in the biz! I realise that few cartoonists make it to the 10-year mark…

You can vote for me here on the Awards website, no registration required.

This year, an academic website named Comic FOLIO tracked the history of Australian comics from the late 90s to the late 2010s. It included an 8-part interview with me, which you can access in full here.
