- I forgot to share here that Treading Water won an award!! Thank you to everyone who voted for it in the public vote for Changemakers Choice Award- small press comic of the year! This was such a lovely surprise and it's so nice knowing that my queer little graphic novel resonated with people 🌊
- Some rare photos of me! I don't love having my photos taken, but felt important to celebrate the fact that my debut graphic novel, Treading Water, is now available at @goshcomics.bsky.social I popped in yesterday to sign some copies

- A reminder to my fellow illustrators who do client work- clients should not be asking you to sign over your copyright!! (Unless they want to give you A LOT of money)
- For context, my 'boundary on copyright' is that I won't sign over full copyright for a £250 commission fee.

- It's #LGBTQ+HistoryMonth in the UK. New followers of mine might not know that trans history is a big focus in my artistic practice, and a few years ago I made an illustrated zine called 'A Potter Trans History'. I thought I'd share a couple of pages with you here!
- And here is some lovely coverage about it from the ever wonderful @brokenfrontier.bsky.social www.brokenfrontier.com/a-potted-tra...
