Alessandra Patanè (a.k.a. Alyah), is born in Sicily (Italy) and she has lived in any other place but that. She’s currently living in Berlin.
Her first webcomic "Greedy Flower" had such a great impact on the public that an italian publishing house (Shockdom) contacted her to print and sell it.
She's currently working on a new mini-series called Ctrl-Z, which will be published in Italy by Panini Comics.
She's also a very well-known artist among the "Star vs. the Forces of Evil" fandom on Tumblr, with the nickname anomAlyah and the fan-comic "Broken".
There’s a very important fact about Alyah: she loves laughing, talking and eating: often all of these actions can occur at the same time.
As you may have noticed, the publication of Greedy Flower on Tapas is stopped since last week. This is why I'm still waiting for the translations of the next chapter from ita to eng to be finished. Plus next week I'll be traveling for work and I'll be back for the half of November.
If you are in Italy, you can find me at Lucca Comics & Games convention from November 1st to 5th.
For all the others, see you in three weeks with the new chapter.
Also since it's almost Halloween, here is themed illustration featuring the characters of GreedyFlower!
Bye :D
The summer break is almost over! \o/ Starting from Monday, Sept. 4th Greedy Flower Volume 3 (chapter 13) will start its publication on Tapas! However since the translation process is has run into some problems I need to slow down the publication: a new page will be published every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Hope it won't bother. See you soon! <3
Hey everyone! I'm back from a long holiday (been to Japan, 3 weeks, yay!) and some work errands (2 publications of my works happened in Italy at the same time, argh!). In the meantime as you have seen the daily appointments with Greedy Flower and Broken have not stopped (thanks to Tapas and it's scheduling functionality) but you may have noticed that I've been a bit absent from the comments. ^^" Anyway now I'm back and I'll start again answering to your questions on the new pages I'll publish or simply joking along with you and your smart puns. Sadly to inform you that Broken is approaching to an end while I'm publishing its very last last pages :'( Luckily there is still a lot to come on Greedy Flower! And, who knows, I could possibly start soon another project and post it here! ;) Anyway, enjoy what's next to come and please spread the word! ^0^
Greedy Flower's chapter 6, online from last Wednesday, is also the end of the first volume. I hope you like the story so far with the main characters introductions and the revelation of another mysterious guy right at the end, although the best is yet to come! ;)
The 2nd volume on Tapastic starts from tomorrow, April 3rd! \o/ However the publication rate will change: instead of one chapter every week there will be one page every day.
