Mary Shelley Presents is a Bram Stoker Award Nominee!

I am so excited to announce that "my" graphic novel, Mary Shelley Presents, is an official Bram Stoker Award Nominee! I put "my" in quotes because I am part of the Kymera Press team that put the book together. The art team deserves just as much credit as I do. And of course, I owe everything to my editor and the owner of Kymera Press, Debbie Daughetee!

This graphic novel contains 4 stories that I adapted from the work of Victorian-era women writers who were as famous as Mary Shelley herself b...

SupaNova!

Hello, I'm back from two SupaNova Comic Con and Conventions, one in Melbourne, and one on the Gold Coast in Australia.
