It took a long time to get here but now 7 months in! So full of excitement for what’s to come with Tils and our baby. A baby that already tells me when it’s lunch and when to sleep by rolling over and over. Merry Christmas and here’s to 2026!

Something incredible came in the post today…the Korean translation of @viragopress FURIES, the 50th anniversary anthology I was really lucky to be a part of šŸ–¤ . It’s always been a wonder to see my work translated across so many languages, and my short story SHE-DEVIL is the first to make its way to Korea! I’m in awe! šŸ‘» . #HyundaiMunhak

in case you missed it, there’s a video for ā€˜Falling Behind’ !! starring the š“¼š“½š“Ŗš“» of my life, my wife El, like you’ve never seen her before. Initially the idea was for me to help the monster come out of her shell, but I feel happy that it turned into El quite clearly helping me come out of mine. Real life in a music video, who knew. Go watch the full thing, link in bio!! i had the absolute best time making this with @clumpcollective , and feel so lucky to have embarked on it together. It’s rare to have such a kind talented group of people: Directed & produced by — @clumpcollective Videographer — @ma.riedutton Editor — @ma.riedutton & @iv.obel Art department — @steph.dutton , @ma.riedutton & @iv.obel Production assistant — @benjaminspikesaunders Makeup artist — @makeupfx_by_anna Titles — @steph.dutton Colourist — @cam_sander

It’s always amazing to find my book in a store, but times that by 100 when I’m 1000s of miles away from home ! . I first visited Toronto as a graduate in 2016 and couldn’t get over the city; full of art and so much care for illustration and storytellers. @thebeguiling is a cornerstone for comics and I’d never have made it to 2018 TCAF without them, so it was extra special to return 6 years later and find my book still on their shelves (along with an original @ourcomicsaregood edition)! Thank you!

Hey! It’s been a while since I showed my face around here, or shared any work I’ve been doing. But I wanted to introduce myself to my new followers - and maybe remind everyone else that I’m still here šŸ˜… . My name’s Eleanor and I’m a London based author, graphic novelist and illustrator. I’m currently working on my third graphic novel, which will be released by @viragopress in 2024. I’m so excited for this new book, it’s a bit of a change up for me as it’s totally fictional and also (hopefully) scary! šŸ‘» . I’ve also just started a new teaching role on my old illustration course at LCC/UAL. It’s really cool to be surrounded by great students and to see the transitional side of visual culture. . I’ll be back soon and with some drawings šŸ–¤ ciao for now! E x

Yoohoo! Today I’m up this ladder 🪜 but tomorrow I’ll be on a plane to Italy for my first continental book tour to celebrate the launch of ā€˜Tutte Le Volte Che Ho Scoperto Di Essere Gay’! . So unbelievably excited to be working with @diaboloedizioni and to meet loads of cool new readers. I’ll be in Torino at @norabookecoffee on Friday, then in Milan at @libreria_antigone_milano on Saturday and @bookpride on Sunday! Hope you can make it, un abbraccio! ā¤ļøšŸ¤šŸ’š . #italy #torino #milano #booktour #thetimesiknewiwasgay #diaboloedizioni #bookpride2023 #bookpridemilano

If you know me, you know how much I love ghosts. . Today marks the launch of FURIES from @viragopress , their 50th Anniversary collection of wild and wicked stories, an anthology that I can’t quite believe I’m a part of. ā€˜She-Devil’ is my contribution, I hope you like this sneak peak of the first page, I can’t wait for you to read it all šŸ–¤ . #virago50

I'm so excited to announce that I'm part of FURIES — a book that celebrates @ViragoPress 50th anniversary along with 14 other writers who I love and admire, some of my absolute favourites! I've written (and drawn!) a ghost story based on the word She-Devil, and really can't wait for you to see it šŸ˜ˆšŸ‘»šŸ‘§ Pre-order link in my bio! #Furies #Virago50 #graphicnovel #comic #ghoststory #shedevil #announcement #preorder

Buongiorno Italia! ƈ un giorno emozionante per me e per la fantastica squadra di @diaboloedizioni 🌹Introduzione….’Tutte Le Volte Che Ho Scoperto Di Essere Gay’ ! ā­ļø . And that’s about as far as my Italian skills will take me…it’s been a long and exciting road waiting for ā€˜The Times I Knew I Was Gay’ to finally hit the shelves in Italy, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to share that the wait is over, it will be launching on November 7th! . Head over to the @diaboloedizioni for more details and to check their great books. Ciao for now! šŸ‡®šŸ‡¹ . #thetimesiknewiwasgay #diaboloedizioni #graphicnovel #comica #queercomics #lgbtreads #queerwriters #italia #fumetto #🌈 #imgay
