Yeah, I only seem to post to this blog when I have a new book out. Sorry. Anyway, End of Days!

It’s my new book about dinosaurs and the end of the world. It’s great. You should buy it. Yes.

Buy it here.

Pamela Lokhun also joined us for Leek & Sushi’s Manga Show last year,
with a story of cross cultural love and cross dressing. This year she
returns with a story inspired by her cat Jimmy. The feline protagonist
decides her owner needs a bit more company instead of sitting on her
own knitting all day. She sets out to catch a friend.

You can see more of Pamela’s rather luscious work over at Pencilled
Dreams

Preview pages are below the fold!

Jade Sarson is an illustration student with a monitor tan and an
aversion to coffee. Her story about love and gifts was included in
Leek & Sushi’s manga show, and she has two short stories in Manga
Cupcakes.

One story is about an epic battle of wits between a tea house waitress
and the owner of the coffee shop that’s just opened across the road,
and the other is about a tanning salon obsessed goddess who brings
about the apocalypse. They are both great fun, and a pleasure to look
at (see the previews below!)

You can find Jade Sarson on Facebook and on Deviant Art. Check her out.
