Epic Comic Con was incredibly hard work but incredibly rewarding. I met some truly amazing people, I laughed, I carried a lot of stuff, I felt beautifully accepted. I feel quite emotional about the whole thing tbh. Also Chris Barrie 🥰

In other news, as I move with the times, a forward thinking mover and shaker as ever. I watched the first ep of Porridge. I am older than Barker was. I found him magnetic, I wasn't quite expecting that! Anyway, as you were

The yearly reminder that if I had been the girl in the poofy dress, that baby would be a happy little mischief causing goblin, and I'd still be twirling with Bowie.

I went for a sauna on the beach with the ladies this morning. The sand was crispy with frost and the sky astonishingly blue. What a treat!

The 2nd series of Red Dwarf is my favourite, and this will never change. But series 5, Chris Barrie is off the charts hawt. Sigh. Oh, I hope you all had a lovely Xmas n that! As you were.

Last night in my dream, James Marsters, wearing a beautiful blue suit, approached me and smiled and said,'Hi, do you know Alexander?' And I said, 'I'm afraid not." And he smiled and walked away. WHAT A BASTARD WASTE! I knew my brain hated me, but I had no idea the extent! FFS.

I tried this lip tint today. It goes on black, you peel it off and your lips are delicious pink. Except I've got dry skin and the black has stuck to the skin. And I look like I am decaying. Which yah nah, is true but urgh.

Last months comps just arrived. I didn't get near it. The kid screamed with excitement and immediately demanded pen and paper. Another fan for @pauljholden.bsky.social ! (6 but almost 7 doncha know! )

I'm not going to lie, I'm completely devastated by this news. I have loved every single second of writing Gums and Uniscorn, and the other story probably never to be seen. I have loved being part of it and relished seeing how much my 6 year old loved it too. 🐋🐬🐋 downthetubes.net/exclusive-mo...

When I was young there used to be a 'video man' who would drive around renting films from the boot of his car. And he would make a snide copy for silly money. That's how I got a copy of High Spirits on vhs for Xmas with it just written on the side in biro. Still got it!

My face lit up like a pinball machine when my son (22) asked if I had any Batman comics he could borrow as he wanted to try comics out. He left with Long Halloween, White Knight and The Best of The Spirit as I thought he'd love that. Joy!

Just been to a performance of Frankenstein at Newcastle's Castle keep. It was amazing, atmospheric, intense, very intimate with the seating around the room and the actors right in front of you. Very clever staging, costumes, and writing. Beautifully done.

I'm not saying my 6 year old reads a lot of comics, but I just asked her a question, and her answer was to write Aaaaarrrrgggh! in a speech bubble.

Listening to Jon Culshaw narrate Pratchetts Jingo. I've read it a fair few times, but it's so different to listen to with Culshaws' take on the voices. I love his Vimes. It's giving me vague Tim Roth vibes. But that could be because of my raging Roth crush.

This may raise a smile on a poopy day. A new @monsterfuncomic is out today with a Gums strip by me and @pauljholden.bsky.social - how exciting is that??

I write comics for kids, and my biggest problem is my addiction and mad overuse of exclamation points! I just love them! I'm currently sitting in Costa editing at least half of the little beauties out of this script! The joy!

A bumper Halloween issue of Monster Fun is out today with a 2 page Gums story written by me and art by the incredible Brett Parsons @blitzcadet . The best compliment in the world was that my 6 year old laughed out loud at this story and made me read it again immediately. Can a better review exist?

I just dropped the kiddo off at school. Her teachers just told me she had taken some @monsterfuncomic into school on Friday and read them to her class. I've just cried all the way home. My 6 year old is so proud of me. How amazing and overwhelming is that?
