I love small-press publishing. It began with Issues #1-4 of ‘FML Comics‘ – an autobiographical comic strip exploring my most private and political experiences – and has now expanded far beyond that. I’m keen to bring creatives together to embark on artistic adventures through publishing and I always love a good zine fair.
I’m excited about work that is intimate, vulnerable, and very honest. Autobio and autofiction are probably my genres of choice. Popular per-zines in my collection so far include ‘Female Friendly P***‘, ‘Why He Hasn’t Replied Yet‘ and ‘Body Count‘. I’ll also always love raw and humorous short-form comics like Emily Cullen’s ‘Garforth Golf Club‘.

Garforth Golf Club
by Emily Cullen
Published April 2021
A endearing 32-page mini comic recounting 13-year-old Emily’s first job at Garforth Golf Club. It’s awkward, it’s funny and it’s cringe. It’s also beautifully relatable in it’s childishness. Emily is a brilliant storyteller and her raw cartooning style makes the mundane details of life really come alive. So so so entertaining and heartwarming to read, I think this is autobio comics at their best.

See how my harboured might is blowing away
He breaks my fall as dawning of daybreak
Welts with a mobius streak boundless and righteous for our
Magnolia seed surely thrive in the dark
Origami birds flock from my heart
Burst out in colour to wherever you are
Ancient sidekick tandem war elephant
Rest in my skin fit this Try angels
