My brand new comic series THE WYRM TURNS is now officially being released onto the world!
Pem is about to fulfil her lifelong dream of becoming a knight! She just has to kill a dragon. Unfortunately he isn't the fire-breathing monster she was expecting...
It's a fantasy/comedy comic. Unlike my previous comics which have been fairly short one-shots, this one is designed as a six issue series, with episodic stories which build up to a 'season finale'.

There's a week left on my kickstarter campagin for THE DODO KNOWS, a short story collection which includes some of my comics from Tapas!
We've crossed the £2000 mark which was a stretch goal to get the whole thing printed using recycled papers.

Hello lovely people!
It's been waaaaay too long, I hope you're all doing ok in this difficult time <3
I’m now kickstarting THE DODO KNOWS- a slipstreamy short story comics anthology of things lost and feelings found!
It collects together eight of some of my favourite short comics that I’ve created over the years - you might recognise some of them from my Tapas series 'Marginalia'.

Hi lovely readers - big apologies needed, I know it's incredibly frustrating when comics mysteriously stop updating and I've always tried to avoid doing that. I'm a bit upset because I thought I'd set Earth in a Pocket auto-update in my absence so I could take that cognitive load off my mind but I guess I didn't, so I've just posted up two months worth of updates at once for you! Hope you enjoy them, even if they're belated!
So what happened? Where'd I go?
In short, 2019 has been a really exciting year for me, but I'm frazzled: I've had an artist residency at a museum, I got the funding to create an educational science comic which launched at an event in London this week, I've had my work published in a few different places, not to mention I've been doing some really exciting projects in my day job, AND I'm studying for a postgraduate teaching qualification. It's all great stuff, but my beloved passion project Earth in a Pocket had to wriggle down my list of priorities a bit, for a little while.
But I come bearing gifts!
To atone for my screw up, I can finally share same things with you
Firstly there's Athena and the Tortoise, a research grant funded project. If you like knowledgeable tough women explaining things to cute creatures, and hopefully you do, then this comic is for you. A shiny well designed online version will be coming later next year, but here's a prototype. Comments and feedback greatly appreciated!

Then there's the similarly-tortoisey TORTOISEHOARD, a short comic that I completed for the Observer/Cape/Comica graphic short story prize
Link ---- https://www.helengreetham.com/tortoisehoard
I hope you enjoy them! My plan is to try to get back into a Tuesdays update schedule on Earth in a Pocket from here on out, and to keep everyone better informed about what's going on. Thanks so much for your patience and support <3

Hey Jabbage,..
Dont worry about it too much
you`re not the first artist that had trouble with the auto-update function,... and i doubt you`ll be the last.
It sounds you had a wonderfull year, keep up the great work

Next time I should make sure to actually *CHECK* things are ticking over, but at least I'm back on top of it now!

Hey I'm in the Athena comic! Just kidding XP
I have some really exciting news! I'm going to be working as a writer in residence at Wirksworth Heritage Centre, with the aim of creating a comic/graphic novel exploring the town of Wirksworth's literary connections to 19th century novelist George Eliot. It's a really exciting project that I hope you'll all follow along with, and you can read more about it at my website - https://www.helengreetham.com/blog/writer-in-residence-at-wirksworth-heritage-centre

For readers of my ongoing comic Earth in a Pocket, never fear! I'm definitely going to be able to keep up weekly updates throughout May and into early June. After that I might have to switch to fortnightly updates or take a little break, but either way the comic isn't going anywhere. I'm hoping I might finish it before the end of the year, but we'll see!

Three bits of news!
1) The SCIENCE! anthology which I have a short story in has funded on Kickstarter, but there's still some time left to grab a copy! https://littleheroescomics.co.uk/anthology-3-science/
It's a great gift for any young comics fans in your life. Or not so young comics fans. Either way the money is going to bring a bit of brightness into the lives of kids in hospital, which is great.
2) You can now buy a couple of my comics in dead tree format in my shop, and your own little squishy badge*
https://www.helengreetham.com/etsy-shop
*badge depicts a cute alien from my comic Earth in a Pocket, which have become known as squishies. Badge is not actually squishy. It is iridescent though, which is cool.
3) Eh, I updated my website and it looks prettier now.
https://www.helengreetham.com
Thanks for your support as always, guys <3
There are nearly 900 of you now which blows my mind.
