Making and Publishing Your Own First Graphic Novel Debut
It seems lots of people in the UK have a graphic novel in them. As proof, no less than 185 people entered this year’s First Graphic Novel Award. So why are comics their medium of choice? How do you decide what subjects you share and what approach you take? And how do you grapple with realising your first book-length comic from idea to publication? Woodrow Phoenix, graphic novelist of Rumble Strip, She Lives, Donny Digits and others and also a tutor in comics, talks with three cartoonists about their experiences of creating their brilliant solo debuts at Century Club Members Club on Friday 3rd May.
Carol Adlam is a World Illustration Award winner with a PhD in Russian. Denise Dorrance is an American-born illustrator based in London, whose satirical ‘It’s All About Mimi’ cartoons ran in The Mail on Sunday’s You magazine. And Leo Fox is an artist and cartoonist from London, where he is studying at The Slade School of Fine Art and makes work about transness and magic.

Mosimann’s – A Look Inside London’s Famous Members Restaurant
When one utters “Darling… I’m just popping in for a spot of lunch at a luxurious dining restaurant in Belgravia that catered to both Harry and William’s wedding; it has John Major, John Cleese and a long list of actors, writers, and politicians as regulars too. The rub is that you must be a member to even order a starter, and it catered for the Olympics, US presidents and some of the most powerful people […]
