Have a bonus doodle I made for my last book order:

I wish I coulda seen how these two talked to each other irl loool

I should draw more images of Robespierre n Brount really 🥺

Anyway, this has gotten too long, I really love your comic and I look forward to see more updates and I hope it gains more popularity ^_^!!

(Btw im sorry if I wrote some names wrong or have writting mistakes, Im not English and the names might be slightly different! Specially Saint-Just's full name...)

Hi!! Thank you for the very nice msg, I'm sorry it took me so long to get round to replying 🥺 I'm so glad you're enjoying the comic and learning through it too ehehe :3 And yeah, the comic is only printed by me so, on the occasions it has already ran out of stock, I've just gone ahead and printed more~ I look forward to printing vols 2 and 3 too....maybe I can find some funding so that I can actually have time to get this series finished more quickly lol And ofc!! Saint-Just and Robespierre are so closely linked, I couldn't not dive into Saint-Just in detail when I get to that point!

I've only drawn this once but I loved drawing it, c'mon they'd make the best Toxic Couple 😏 If anyone else ever buys a copy of Incorruptible and is brave enough to request a danton x robespierre picture, I will gladly oblige ahaha

My faves always 🫶 I haven't done many for book order doodles though, just cos I dont know if the ppl ordering are history nerds or not, and if not, they wont know who SJ is yet from only reading vol 1 ahaha

Forgive me whilst I group various book order doodles together into individual posts. I hope you enjoy them <3

Hello!! Yay a fellow Camille fan!! 😁

If you haven't checked it out already, I feel like my *favourite* Camille content is his very own letters. He's very OTT and I love it, esp the letters to his family

I'm linking to some English translations, but there is much more in French! There is a book about Camille and Lucille by the historian Herve Leuwers that might interest you, if you can read French.

And for more English translations of the really fun/interesting content that gets across his character much more than history books tend to, I recc looking through the Camille Desmoulins tag on @anotherhumaninthisworld 's blog, for various collections of weird and wonderful Camille moments such as:

throwing a gifted bust out of a window,

carrying around pistols just in case,

forgetting the names of his brothers,

getting engaged but as if he was in a high school drama,

Oh wow, thank you so much for making it a staff pick, thats so cool! I hope all the readers at your library enjoy it 🥺🥺

And yes! I've worked on so many autism centred books and comics! First of all, there's a sequel to Speak Up! coming out next year in March~

In terms of books for kids specifically, I also illustrated 'Being Autistic':

Its a non fiction book, but it became a best seller in Ireland and ppl REALLY love it. Niamh is an amazing writer, she makes learning about autism really fun and empowering. I think kids enjoy it cos it follows characters via little comics, so it's easy to read and feels very personable, almost like autobio comics but for kids.

For when your kids get older, or if you're also into reading more GNs with autistic MCS hehe, I'm also making two different webcomics.

Paupers Prince is a romantasy with a socialist twist. One of the MCs (the prince!) is autistic, and his experience is a big part of the story. I wanted to make a 'regency romance' where an autistic person is the love interest, rather than some kind of sad side character lol

I'm also making a historical fiction about Robespierre/ the French Revolution that I post here on tumblr. Having done A LOT of research I'm like, 90% sure he was autistic lol And I want to both debunk the myths around Robespierre/leftist politics in a fun, approachable way... and also make some fresh observations about him from an autism perspective :3 So, this part drama/ part history comic is being made

You can get my webcomics in my shop, they are only self published~ The books are quite big even if they're only first volumes, about 170 pgs each

ALSO! If your kids are on the younger side, I illustrated a book a couple years back called Ada and Zaz:

Its beautifully written and has an autistic MC (and also another MC with adhd) but it's just a lovely short/easy reader story for anyone aged 5-9 😄

Aww thanks for asking!
