ACROSS A FIELD OF STARLIGHT
(Random House Graphic, Feb 2022)
Rights: Penguin Random House
When they were kids, Fassen’s fighter spaceship crash-landed on a planet that Lu’s survey force was exploring - a forbidden meeting between a kid from a war-focused resistance movement and one whose community and planet are dedicated to peace and secrecy.
Their friendship keeps them in each other’s orbit, even as their communities are increasingly threatened by the omnipresent, ever-expanding empire. As the empire begins a new attack against Fassen’s people--and discovers Lu’s in the process--the two have the chance to reunite at last...but at what cost?
This beautifully illustrated graphic novel is an epic science fiction romance between two non-binary characters as they find one another through time, distance, and war.
MEAL
(Iron Circus Comics, Oct 2018)
Yarrow is a young chef determined to make her mark on the cutting edge of cookery with her insect-based creations. Though her enthusiasm is infectious, it rubs some of her fellow cooks the wrong way, especially Chanda Flores, Yarrow's personal hero and executive chef of an exciting new restaurant. Her people have been eating bugs for centuries, and she's deeply suspicious of this newbie's attempt to turn her traditions into the next foodie trend. While Chanda and her scrappy team of talented devotees struggle to open on time, Yarrow must win over Chanda - and Milani, the neighbor she's been crushing on for weeks - or lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to achieve her dreams.

Like who the robot living with Brendan is. And why she looks like Al. And how much of the past should stay in the past…
