I feel that way, too
I published my first book on 13 November 2025. It is filled with a lot of the illustrations you know and love, plus some extra ones you have never seen before and the writing that goes along with it that has previously existed in a locked vault on my laptop and in my various journals.
Book: I feel that way, too
I published my first book on 13 November 2025 with Bite-Sized Books. It is filled with a lot of the illustrations you know and love, plus some extra ones you have never seen before and the writing that goes along with it that has previously existed in a locked vault on my laptop and in my various journals.

A bit about my book:
I have always found it difficult to journal following a "dear diary" format. I would keep it up for two days and then fall off the wagon.
Two years ago, I started making daily drawings that unpacked a feeling I was experiencing. I began sharing them online, and to my surprise, many of the feelings I thought were uniquely mine resonated with people around the world. I recently realised that this was journaling - my way. This book turns my journaling into a sort of "adult children's book" - a book you can pick up and read at random or all in one sitting.
I hope that by sharing how I feel, it might help someone else process their own emotions and feel less alone. Sharing my journal pages over the past two years has certainly made me feel less alone.
