2013 Ladies Drawing Auxiliary Is Go!

February

Rebecca Clements

Everything kicks off 7pm, Thursday 28th February.

We promised you Rebecca for October last year, but circumstances were against us. Now she is returning. She has a swag of comics under her belt from recent months of toil after her year sabbatical of not making comics. Why did she stop making comics, and why has she started again? We will find out!

Also we are very excited to announce the following presenters for the coming months.

March: Melanie Matthews and Sarah Firth

April: Susan Butcher and Carol Wood (Pox Magazine) and Marijka Gooding

Regrettably Rebecca Clements has had to withdraw from next week's LDA. In her place there will be a screening of a talk by a lively American lady cartoonist. Rebecca will be rescheduled for an LDA in the new year, stay tuned!

 Lily Mae Martin's talk will go ahead as planned.

Questions for Lily Mae:
* As a painter, has graphic narrative always been part of your practice but you have only recently made it more public, or is it a completely new development in your work?
* You recently approached publishers in London, how did you find this experience and how healthy would you judge the options for graphic narrative there?
* What kind of pens do you like to use for your black and white work?

Questions for Rebecca Clements
* How has your sabbatical from webcomics been?
* What inspiration did you discover during your time in Japan and where do you think it is going to lead you?

Question for both Rebecca and Lily Mae
* You both have internet followers in the thousands, were there particular key individuals or moments that helped give you that extra bump of contacts, or has it simply been a slow incremental process the whole time?
