Coral Violet Jolly arrived on 12/12/24! I'm not sure how four (very emotional and exhausting!) weeks have gone by already... but we are so so in love with this tiny, hilarious, stinky, milky, beautiful lady. ❤️

Libraries matter more than ever now! They embody a beautiful & brilliant idea that we must never stop defending. The idea that knowledge is free & belongs to EVERYONE. We all need to support our libraries & librarians - especially when people seek to ban books & free thinking. #libraries #books

Sad to be missing Thought Bubble festival this year! But I'll be nine months pregnant this weekend and we'd be running the risk of a (first?) TBubs baby 😅😂 Have a great time, everyone! @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social

I finally coloured my illustration from last year's #folktaleweek! 🍂 My street is covered in autumn leaves at the moment, and they're some of my favourite colours to paint with, so I couldn't resist.

I crammed as many as possible in there, they're all fantastic & a blessing for anyone's timeline 💜 (I'll have to do more packs cause too much incredible artists !!)

I found out my comic had over 800,000 views on Reddit this weekend 😭😭😭 I've been absolutely blown away by the exceptionally kind comments and support. I actually cried at some. It means so much! bsky.app/profile/emme...

I'm doing Hourly Comic Day! ✨ 7am

I always bring spare paper to doodle as I host market stalls. I hate being overly hard-sell (or having people be hard-sell to me) so I think after a quick hello/chat it takes the pressure off buyers a bit and they can relax and look through everything! 😊✨

I didn't plan to do any Christmas fairs this year, but I ended up doing three! It's been really nice to get out of the studio and meet lots of new people (and eat lots of mince pies!). Thanks so much to everyone who supported me and came to say hi, it means so so much! 💖

🌟 New prints! 🌟

Happy Halloween 🎃🖤 Here's a few of my spooky illustrations over the past few years! Mostly purple apparently! 💜 #kidlit

I've been restructuring one of my old stories that I absolutely love. I think it's so much better now, and it's made me realise just how much I've learnt about storytelling over the past few years. Aaah I really hope I get to share it with you one day! 🤞💕
