It’s been a long time since I’ve sold my wares with a table at a comic show and the MKomix event last night was a lovely one to return to. There was a friendly and chilled vibe in the MK Gallery in Milton Keynes as I joined some familiar and some new to me indie comic creators, including organiser Paul Rainey plus David Baillie, Jay Eales & Selina Lock, Sean Azzopardi, Karen Rubins, Jon Scrivens, Dan Lester, Jade Sarson and Amy Letts.

I had the pleasure of meeting Laura Watton for the first time in person and realising I’d bought a Sweatdrop collection she’d worked on many years earlier. Was also great meeting my table mates and fellow Londoners, Avery Hill Publishing.

All in all, a good evening. Thanks to all who came and asked me about my work and those who bought some of it! My new Lucy the Octopus Tasty Taster Comic was my best seller of the evening!

The night was rounded off by driving home with Alex Fitch, David Baillie and Dan Lester, failing to find a Little Chef so opting for a Chinese take away eaten in the open air in Dunstable. If anyone passing through Dunstable, pops into the China Express, I recommend No 74.
