Please support the work of the artists here @manonwright.bsky.social @nodplus50pts.bsky.social @domduongart.bsky.social @rein-lee.bsky.social and @skhoshbell.bsky.social. Also I did not see Rein’s pose here until some hours later on our Six to Watch Discord. Haha!

End of the weekend at @arcfestivallondon.bsky.social and our #BF6toWatch table. Know what? There is nothing - and I mean NOTHING - in my 50-odd years of comics life that has brought me more joy than mentoring all these amazing artists over the last 12 years.

I’ve been meeting up with local comics creators for a few months and we’ve made an anthology of our work! We’re going to launch it on @smallpressday.bsky.social at the Waiting Room in Winchester

That time in 2024 when someone complained because I had selfishly not replied to a review request over Christmas and asked me to interrupt the holidays to “action it off”. This did not prove to be an effective strategy for them in securing the coverage desired. Oddly enough…

If you’re looking for me at @arcfestivallondon.bsky.social I’ll be wearing this and accessorising with these.

A little reminder I’m a guest at @captioncomicfest.bsky.social on August 8th talking small press stuff on two different panels.

Fun at the @goshcomics.bsky.social and @brokenfrontier.bsky.social drink and draw for @arcfestivallondon.bsky.social tonight. #goshbfdd

I’ve taken two weeks off in July to catch up with months of @brokenfrontier.bsky.social stuff because I have never been so behind. So I’ll do my best for people waiting responses then. I have taken two weeks of leave in August. It’s for me. Not for you. You can’t have any of it. It’s the law.

Thanks so much to Andy and Broken Frontier for helping organise this!

Congrats to our fabulously talented #BF6toWatch creator @mereida.bsky.social on her Harvey nomination for 'The Keluarga Cable Ship Company'. As ever, we did tell you... www.harveyawards.com/en-us/about/...

Alex Taylor manages to balance all those elements in a way that very much impressed me. Bone Broth is one of the best graphic novels I've read in a while. For more about the author and his work, go and read the good interview published by Broken Frontier. [5/5]

11:11 is 94% funded!! 😭💖 I made a wee post in the Updates tab of the Kickstarter just to say thank you for all the love and support shown to this project already!! 📝 www.kickstarter.com/projects/ash...

It's been shocking and eye-opening, and it's now affecting my/BF's ability to reach people and do the important work we've done for so long. It's such a sad situation but I can't keep swimming against the tide like this so I'll have a good think then. (But BF as a site will carry on whatever!)

BF is going nowhere but at the end of the year, after I've seen out my commitments (and also after we do something special for TB's 20th obvs), I'm going to re-evaluate my own wider community work. What we've had to deal with in the last 6 months due to our stance on AI has been deeply unpleasant.

One of life's eternal mysteries.

If I can possibly avoid it I will not be behind the @brokenfrontier.bsky.social table at @arcfestivallondon.bsky.social. BF is providing it for the #BF6toWatch artists after all so I don’t want to take time and space from them. But I will be there both days if you want to chat.
