Join myself and the insanely talented Matthew Forsythe in convo this October 28th at 7pm (gmt).
🤩

We’ll be talking about his journey from comics to animation to absolutely epic children’s books.
It’s gonna be a vibe, be sure to get your drinks and snacks ready and put the date in your diary.

☺️

This is music to my ears, and it’s gonna be a feast for my eyeballs too. 🥹

I need more artists and creatives to clock this for what it is and stop self identifying with this DEAD trope.

It’s bad enough the rest of the world upholds this narrative, you don’t have to willingly do it to yourself.

I laughed a bit too hard at this 😅😭

People are demanding we show empathy to a person whose whole career was built on spreading hate for anyone who wasn’t a straight white male. 😮‍💨

I’m just gonna leave this here, cos it sums this thing up better than I can right now.

Let me be clear, Julia makes good books.

But an undeniable amount of these sales is also down to the way her books are literally given their own separate shelves and signage in EVERY high street bookstore in the country.

These kind of numbers are bound to happen in that kinda set up.

Just finished Dressrosa 😮‍💨 what an arc!! This guy is my new fave. ☺️

All the violations to his memory that this brings to mind aside…I find myself increasingly seething at how our nostalgia continues to be exploited for profit and to pacify and distract us, while our very rights are stripped away bit by bit.

In case you missed it, mines and @traceybaptiste.bsky.social’s new picture book dropped last week. 😊

SUPER GOAT GIRL is out everywhere books are sold in America and the UK. 🥹

Here are some highlights from the UK launch. 😊

Drew the big blue boy scout for the first time last night while chopping it up with @studiohoffmann.bsky.social 🤓

Managed to sneak out to watch the movie this morning. Not a perfect movie, but most definitely a fun watch. Worth the cinema ticket.
😊

There is no such thing as an “AI artist” 🫠

At best you’re a coward, at worst…you’re a thief. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Zac Gorman’s Magical Game Time collection is such a brilliant comfort read for me. Dude had such an amazing way of tapping into aaall the nostalgia of growing up playing video games in the 90’s.

I’ve also put together a little something exclusive for indie bookshop preorders, just to show love for stocking my books. If you’re an indie and you’d like some sticker sheets to go with your preorders, just drop me a dm or comment below and I’ll hit you up and sort it out while stocks last.

I really like how the stickers and print came out. 😊

The Super Goat Girl Bundle preorders are LIVE in my online shop. 🥹

The book drops July in the UK (17th) and the USA (15th), If you preorder through my online shop then you can pick up these bits and bobs along with a signed copy of the book.

This is offer only available in the UK btw. 🥲

I haven’t seen nearly enough people talking about this.

The levels of greed and inhumane thinking on display is actually terrifying.

America really is dystopian as fuck.
June 16, 2025 at 11:56 AM
Advance copies are officially in the building!! 🥹

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve had something new to unbox 😅 and I’m so GASSED to have it be this book. 🤩

All eyes on the Madleen.
Israeli forces have just pretty much kidnapped the activists on this boat, when all they’re doing is trying to provide humanitarian aid to the Palestinians who are currently under Israeli attack.

If this is true, it’s terrifying.

I’m willing to bet money that a significant number of those children underperforming are Black and Brown children, especially if we’re going by the disproportionate numbers of them in jail as adults etc.

People crack me up sometimes.
I made a post about how we need to push back against the way companies are making it so we don’t actually own the things we pay full price for…and this guy wrote this.

As if me saying this somehow takes away attention from the bigger issues happening in the world. 🫠
May 15, 2025 at 11:20 AM
This is actual BS.

It is absolutely imperative that we push back against this move towards us not owning any of the media we pay full price for.

Personally…I won’t be purchasing a Switch 2.

These models lock you in in a way that’s completely manipulative and immoral.

The stickers turned out pretty neat. 🥹
