Hello everyone! I'm so excited to finally announce that my debut graphic novel Apocalypse Baby is being published by Scholastic! It's coming out on the 8th of October 2026 and it's avaliable for preorder right now from all good bookstores ❤️

*** Cover reveal! ***

Apocalypse Baby follows two teenage boys as they try to look after a baby during a zombie apocalypse.

One of the main characters, Max, is autistic, and I was diagnosed autistic myself while writing the book. I'm so happy to have the opportunity to contribute some autistic representation to fiction, and I can't wait for you to meet him, as well as Kiran and baby Abby!

If you'd like to preorder, I reccommend getting it from Bookshop.org as each purchase supports an indie bookstore 😊

I’ve officially decided my favorite relationship trope is “at first I was perpetually bothered by your mere existence but somewhere along the way you became my best friend and oh yeah I’m also in love with you.” Nothing else matters.

FOUND family??? you think i just found them like this??? babes this is FORGED family. Me & the bros were scrap metal in a junkyard (very valuable, very sharp, very dangerous, uncared for) and we GOT IN THE FUCKING FIRE TOGETHER. WE did this. we said I AM NOT LEAVING YOU and melted into each other for better or for worse (it’s for better) and we are A FUNCTIONAL UNIT now. DO NOT SEPARATE. BATTERIES FUCKING INCLUDED. FOUND family my ass, we built this non-nuclear family unit from the ground up, don’t devalue this!!! it was is and will be a labour of love!!!

Depressing but somewhat plausible theory for any modern zombie apocalypse show that simply refuses to just call them "zombies":

Early on during the pandemic, various media corporations tried their best to cover up what was happening, and anything mentioning the word "zombie" got shadowbanned, so a mountain of euphenisms came up instead because everyone knows what you're talking about when making a post complaining about how you'd really need to go get groceries but your neighbours have ~*forgotten their manners*~ and are blocking the door.

And anyone born after the fall - or who was simply too young to remember at the time - has no knowledge of why every group seems to have a different name for the zeds, walkers, the dead, strangers, infected, visitors, etc.

I just got some potential logo designs for Apocalypse Baby and they're so beautiful! I can't wait to eventually share the final design with you ❤️

In the meantime, here's a mock cover I drew way back when I was pitching the story! It's been this blog's background for a while but I don't think I ever shared the full picture:

Man I want to show you the page I've been working on today so badly! But I can't because it's kind of a spoiler 😭 wah

This graphic novel will be the death of me

KPop Demon Hunters is possessing my brain right now so naturally I've been wondering what Max, Kiran and Abby would think of it.

Kiran would be absolutely obsessed and he'd learn all the choreo for Soda Pop. He'd also have a massive crush on Jinu, but he'd relate most to Zoey.

Max wouldn't understand the hype for the Saja Boys at all, but he'd probably quietly listen to Golden on loop for several hours (something about the chord progression makes his brain tingle), occasionally breaking it up with This is What it Sounds Like. His favourite character would be Rumi, but he'd recognise himself in Mira.

Abby would LOVE the tiger, giggle hysterically whenever it came on screen, and desperately want a plushy version.
