Hometown by Laydeez Do Comics Birmingham

Laydeez Do Comics are a group who hold regular events around the UK and internationally. Creators are invited to do presentations about comics or their own work. LDC Birmingham has been running for a year and to celebrate Charlotte Bailey compiled an anthology with the theme Hometown. The profits will go towards bringing speakers from further afield to Birmingham.

I will have copies of the book available from my table at events (see the blog sidebar for an up to date list). You can order Hometown online through the LDC Big Cartel site. 

I contributed a 2 page comic and the wrap around cover illustration. Photographed pages are by Charlotte Bailey, Yen Quach and Bryony Attenburrow. The comic was printed locally with a risograph machine by Rope Press.

Birmingham Comics Festival 2016

Thank you to everyone who came by our table at the Birmingham Comics Festival!! - I had so much fun sharing with Charlotte from Laydeez Do Comics Birmingham and Joe Krawec & Angus Medford! The West Midlands comics scene is full of lovely people!

The Laydeez Do Comics Hometown anthology is now available to order online through this Big Cartel shop! and join us on Facebook for regular updates about LDC Birmingham events!

The next event will be Comica Comiket at The House of Illustration on the 14th May. Make sure you try to see the Comix Creatrix and Shojo manga exhibitions before they end - LDC Birmingham did a field trip a couple of weeks ago and it was excellent!!
