I'm a comic fantasy YA author. I like cartoons and books and games and stuff! Two of my books, Miss Prince and Fairy Roots, are currently available for free on my website (follow link above)
About 90% of my gallery is original work so please check it out! I mostly work with fairy tales, folklore and mythology, but I will poke fun at anything I like, so there's other stuff in there too...
My debut novel, Eggs, Butter, Sugar and Disaster came out on the 22nd October 2011.
My second book, Miss Prince, was published on 14th May 2014.
The Map is the Treasure and Vampires Don't Belong in Fairyland were published in Feb/April 2016.
Magic and Other Things in Bottles was published 8th April 2018. Fairy Roots, a novelisation of the webcomic with all the gaps filled in, was published August 2019.
Vampires Don't Belong in Fairytales, my webcomic, runs alongside the books.
I'm working on a few other books in the Vampires Don't Belong in Fairy Tales series too.
Commissions open!
Who is still here??

So remember you mentioning the series way waaaaay~ back. Decided to finally get into Urusei Yatsura. Mostly the older stuff, though I do admit the opening for the new version is crazy infectious.
I saw some of the new one when I was in Japan recently. it's been aaages since I saw the original.
I've been watching an app on my Smart TV that has a lot of older stuff on it. Mostly just the movies though. I discovered it just after finishing the original Ranma series on Hulu.
Hello i love you arts
I'm serious
Thank you <3
and thanks for the watch
Heys. Know its been a while. I was wondering something. How's the challenge in getting something published? I was wondering just in case I ever get the idea of putting out some lit for profit. Leaning towards YA novellas, but don't really got much when it comes to illustrator skills or where to look for that either.
That depends on a few things. If you want to self publish, there's a lot of different options to go for - beware any company charging you money to publish. Do thorough research on any self publishing company and make sure to read the contract. To be honest, the same goes for traditional publishers and agents. Do not trust anyone asking to to pay to be published or read your manuscript, and make sure to read any contract you're given.
If you do want to go the traditional publishing route, then first you usually need an agent - or you can submit to small publishers. Check the agents' websites for submission requirements and if they are open for submissions right now. Unsolicited manuscripts will go straight in the bin usually, so don't waste your time if they're not open to submissions. Also make sure they are the right type of agent/publisher. A romance publisher won't look at a sci-fi thriller, for example.
Be prepared for a lot of rejection. A LOT. Publishers and agents can only take on one or two new authors a year, but get tens to hundreds of submissions every month. So even if your manuscript is gold, they might not have room for you on the roster. And make sure insofar as you can, that the manuscript IS gold. Don't send anything unedited or un-beta read and NEVER send a raw first draft.
Either route, you are going to need to learn about marketing. No matter how good the book is, it doesn't matter if no-one knows it exists or you can't pitch it well in a few sentences (I'm not very good at marketing, and am learning myself so look elsewhere for marketing advice)
I'll answer the best I can if there's anything else you need to know.
