I had the pleasure of attending ALYAC at the Ashland Public Library in Ashland, MA, last weekend. The event was so creatively energizing! I taught kids and their parents how to craft a complete comic story on a single page, which was an immensely rewarding experience.

I’m excited to work with Jeff Spokes on Wonder Woman #29 & #30. I love the Amazons, so I’m always down to visit Themyscira. It’s bittersweet. My bf loved Diana and was my biggest supporter when I was working on Nubia. Although he is no longer here, I still hear his excitement. Love you, Aaron 🫂

I’m deeply humbled and just wow…this is my why 🥹❤️‍🔥
Alt text: “Dear Stephanie, I saw Princess Tiana for the first time when I was six years old. I remember thinking to myself “huh…i didn’t know Black girls could wear ballgowns.”

No character has recreated that feelings for me except for Nubia. I never thought that I would see a kind, gentle, patient, brave, strong, feminine, and regal Black woman with her natural hair in any piece of media.  

So, I just wanted to say thank you for writing her.”

Words can’t even describe how it feels to have a story that felt like a burning fire within me, finally out into the world. I was so scared to write it, but that’s how I knew it was something I had to do—fear and all.

Am I a massive fan of manga and anime? I don't know, but if you’ve been reading WARRIORS AND A WEE WONDER for free on the DC Infinite Universe app, that may give you the answer. Art by Jane Pica with colors by Ariyana Taylor ✨
Split panel of Nubia and toddler Diana. Both are crying out with emotion. Toddler Diana swirling in magical energy. Nubia holds her shield up to deflect the energy so she can get to Diana.

The root of my inspiration. Roots of Madness FOC is today! Issue #1 drops October 1st!
I spent years in laboratories, measuring precise reactions and documenting predictable outcomes—a research scientist following a path that meant security, stability, and survival. When I left that life to pursue creative writing, I became the first in my family to transform their survival lessons into tools for dreaming. My family taught me resilience, strategic thinking, how to stretch resources and navigate systems not built for us—skills they honed for getting by, which I repurposed for reaching beyond. The discipline they used to maintain stability became my foundation for taking creative risks. The careful observation they employed to avoid danger became my method for building new worlds. It felt like stepping into a void while carrying a compass made from their wisdom, reshaping generational knowledge meant for protection into instruments for exploration. 

Roots of Madness emerged from this alchemy of survival and ambition. Etta Knight embodies this transformation: a brilliant chemist in 1905 who takes the healing knowledge her ancestors preserved through slavery and reconstruction and dares to push it further than they ever imagined. When she discovers an otherworldly flower, she applies her scientific training and inherited wisdom to unlock its secrets, believing she can honor her roots while transcending their boundaries. But in that space where survival knowledge meets cosmic ambition, she learns that some transformations exact a price from every generation that follows. This is a story about the delicate art of honoring where you come from while reaching for the impossible, about what happens when you're the first to alchemize survival into dreams. It's about discovering that sometimes the very wisdom that helps us soar also awakens hungers our ancestors were wise enough to leave sleeping.
