​Boomerang 
Picture
 I have been working on a long graphic novel project, Boomerang, which is about youth unemployment, for the last 2 years. It was a bit of a change from making comics about dancing cats, and generally in a good way. It is inspired by personal events, conversations with friends and research into current social trends. 

Set in 2009, Boomerang tells the story of a psychology graduate named Claire, who has returned to her single mother's home in Stonemarket, South East England. 

Undecided, anxious and in a rut of job seeking and unemployment, she no longer knows anyone around of her age, until she meets struggling intern Daniel. 


Boomerang was shortlisted for the Laydeez Do Comics prize in 2018. You can read my interview with Ink Magazine about the project here
