  Last night I did a reading at the wonderful comic shop Floating World Comics and we got cupcakes from Cupcake Jones for the occasion. I LOVED the ginger bread ones and the Cherry Cheesecake ones were really nice too. The tiny gingerbread men were cute and tasted great!

Portland was amazing as usual. Gotta love a town that is so strong in the food scene AND the comics community! I did fun reading at In Other Words, an awesome feminist bookstore and we got cupcakes from Saint Cupcake.We got mini cupcakes in Malt Ball, Fat Elvis (peanut butter/banana/chocolate chip), and Chocolate with Cream [...]

New England and NYC were amazing! Now I’m on my West Coast tour! Hope to see you there, be ready to eat some cupcakes and bring your dolls! Remember, whoever brings the coolest made over doll wins a copy of Dolltopia!

  I just got back from my lecture at Emily Carr University on Granville Island in Vancouver, BC. So fun! We got cupcakes from Coco Cake Cupcakes. Lyndsay does custom cupcakes to order and she matched the Dolltopia cover colors!

I’m having so much fun in Vancouver! The weather turned out to be sunny and gorgeous for most of the weekend and the foliage is so beautiful! I am definitely glad I did this tour in Autumn.

At the Wonderland party in NYC we had Eleni’s minis. So pretty!

We had cupcakes from Sweet at Comicopia in Boston, MA! They had possibly the highest frosting I’ve seen on mini-cupcakes!

The weather stayed gorgeous for our stop in Portland, Maine where we had amazing cupcakes from Katie Made Bakery!

I just got back from a beautiful trip to New England. It was the perfect time to catch the foliage! My stop at cool vintage store, Revolution, in White River Junction, VT was a blast!

  We just got back from an amazing trip to Toronto!

This has been quite a weekend. Two book signings, the Chile Pepper Fiesta, and the Atlantic Antic. Somehow, I’ve managed to survive all of the fun I’ve been having ^_^ Anyway, here is a photo parade from Saturday’s Chile Pepper Fiesta at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

 Last night’s signing at GRNY was a blast! The staff there (especially the manager, Mark) was so helpful and nice. I have been a longtime fan of Giant Robot magazine, so signing at one of their shops was a big thrill for me!

Come out Friday and Saturday to check out my new book Dolltopia and eat some cupcakes!

  This weekend a LOT is going on. One of the fun things I’ll be doing is signing special posters I made for the Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s Chile Pepper Fiesta!  It’s Saturday 10/3 @ Brooklyn Botanic Garden (1000 Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, NY ). I’ll be at the chocolate chile pavilion. Click below to see the [...]

The Dolltopia Cupcake Tour was kicked off this weekend at Small Press Expo in North Bethesda, Maryland! After researching I found only one nearby bakery that would deliver, which was a necessity at this tour stop. So Cake Love it was!

You may or may not already know that I have a new graphic novel coming out called Dolltopia. It’s a fun and quirky tale about dolls who are tired of being controlled by humans, so they start their own society, and you can read a preview here! It’s not exactly food related, BUT, my publisher, [...]
