Silk

I love that there is more variety in superheroes now (compared to when my mom was growing up in the 60s) and this is one I look forward to reading more about: Silk! She was bitten by the same spider that bit Peter Parker (in some canon). I love that I recognized the costume even though I know very little about the character herself – something I must remedy!

Cover Reveal: Winging It

If you saw me in person at Geeked Out on December 1, or at The Book’s Better Bookshop in Smith’s Falls on December 14, you would have seen a sneak peek of Jen’s next cover.

Or if you were part of our newsletter, you got to see sketches and the background. (Incidentally, sign up for our newsletter here!)

There was a cover reveal party this past Saturday, which means:

I have been sitting on this cover since September and I can finally show it to you!
