And: Wonderfully cartooned, moving, compelling, it's one of the best pieces of work I've read all year. Hats off to @debbiejenkinson — Declan Shalvey (@declanshalvey) December 2, 2015 I was …
Really thrilled to have been nominated for four awards this year in the ICN awards. It is so satisfying – heartwarming really – to be recognised by my peers in my own home country. The Comics Lab (the shared project of Sarah, Paddy and me) is also nominated. I’m SO proud of our joined brain child and all the …
Proud to show my books, REMORSE, I fear and Fat Cat in Dublin Art Book Fair last weekend alongside Experiment, our Comics Lab anthology. Such a beautiful, inspiring event, (see here) – the kind that makes you want to go home and MAKE SOMETHING IMMEDIATELY. Thank you Sophie, at TBGS in Temple Bar for organising the comics …
Ah yes. Another invitation dropped through my metaphorical postbox! I am making it sound like I do nothing but lie around on a chaise longue having invites from people delivered to me on a red velvet cushion by my butler. No, more’s the pity.

Very pleased with this review of our Comics Lab zine, Experiment, from Andy Oliver, Small Press Stalwart: http://www.brokenfrontier.com/experiment-stray-lines-paddy-lynch-sarah-bowie-debbie-jenkinson/ There’s something so nice about a successful group project. I am so proud of it.
My book Remorse was nominated for three awards! And The Comics Lab for another! So chuffed. Thank you, thank you, ICN.
I had a lot of fun at the Liquor Rooms on Thursday live-sketching the entertainment, and knocking back a cocktail or two from their new inventions menu.
