The Ladybug Anthology - Digital Edition

Brace yourself for the hip new anthology hitting the Manhattan Beach scene -- THE LADYBUG ANTHOLOGY -- brought to you courtesy of the Los Angeles Women’s Comic Creator League (aka the Ladybugs) and the Comic Bug in Manhattan Beach, CA. The LADYBUG ANTHOLOGY will be the first of many anthologies to come out of the Ladybugs featuring all women creators. The Ladybug Anthology is the culmination of nine month's work and collaboration with the members of the Ladybugs, who meet every Thursday evening at The Comic Bug. The group was formed last May as a space for women who love comics to meet and speak openly about the issues they face, books they're excited about, and as a support system to one another as well as other industry professionals. So this comic anthology was made entirely by women, awesome! But what treasures will readers find inside? We have Orion, the story of a girl looking for her lost rabbit in a dystopian future. There’s Bounty Hunter Space Besties, a tale of two women trying to rise in the ranks of space-bounty-hunting by showing some extra initiative and breaking into the house of a suspected ne'er-do-well. Don’t forget, The Struggle is Real, a slice of life comic documenting the trials and tribulations of a morning trip to the bathroom. All of this, and 11 more stories will be yours. These tasty tales range from cute to dark to hilarious, so brace yourself for an emotional rollercoaster.

Unable to make it to the @ladybugcomics release and signing party at @thecomicbug (https://www.facebook.com/events/1745918262353561/) or just can't wait? You can buy your very own digital copy right now! Proceeds from sales help fund future Lady Bug activities and outreach, including future anthologies!

Happy Friday everyone! Here's an interview done with the Graphic Ramblers from last Friday at Comikaze! We talk about Havenhurst, influences, and more. And apparently I'm so enamored with the combination of words and pictures that I think they're interchangeable in a certain idiom, whoops! They've got more interviews on the way so be sure to check them out! Graphic Ramblers podcast: http://graphicramblers.com/ Havenhurst: http://havenhurstcomic.com/

little kid stories

"little kid stories", an audio/book project I illustrated ten years ago for miriku, is now available as a playlist on YouTube! I also did the reading for the track "cathedral".
