I didn’t have time to buy too many books at the Toronto Comic Arts Festival but I was very happy to pick up these books by monkeyropepress, anniemok, willowdawsonillu, and lillicarre. I was already fans of their work and it was wonderful to talk to them in person. Thank you patrickl for being such a great table neighbour and for introducing me to Irish comics. And to bradybrady10 for the unpaid internship. And thank you for all my visitors including seaberrycove and baharakz. I was also very excited to see boyhemianeers and pretentiousbitch and I hope you both do more comics. Congratulations pretentiousbitch for getting into art school! And thank you to the organizers of TCAF for putting on such an amazing festival again.

My comic based on the Child Ballad, The Lonely Willow Tree, one of the rare murder ballads where the woman gets her revenge. And another recent experiment in colour. Also inspired by my recent reading of The Femicide Machine by Sergio González Rodríguez.
His description of the femicide machine:
This machinic integrity is complemented by the human (individual, group, or collective) element that devised it, keeps it running, and at some point, can destroy it. It also maintains differentiated links and exchanges with other machines, real and virtual: the war machine, the police machine, the criminal machine, or the machine of apolitical conformity.

I got to do a series of comic workshops with the Art Gallery of Ontario Youth Council. We created a 12 foot long accordion book that we launched with Heartbeats: The IZZAT Project. Comics by bohemian-years and pretentiousbitch.

In mid-October I got to spend a few autumn days at Chrissy and Kyle’s SparkBox Studio in Picton, Ontario. I did some screenprinting, worked on some drawings and a design for a screenprinted accordian folded book.
