Meet Lynette Richards and Patrick Allaby, and learn about their work as graphic novelists.
Lynette has been cartooning her whole life. She chose Stained Glass as her professional medium because it is both a trade and an art that has used sequential narration for over 1000 years! Her debut graphic novel, Call Me Bill, is published by Conundrum Press/Emanata.
Patrick Allaby has published two graphic novels about type 1 diabetes with Conundrum Press, Martin Peter (2019), and The Water Lover (2021). His work manifests itself in print and on stage, where he has been performing hand-drawn slideshows since 2016. He has a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Waterloo (2019) and currently lives in Sackville, NB.
Mollie Cronin hosts this panel discussion. Mollie is a cartoonist, illustrator, writer, and curator from Kjipuktuk (Halifax, NS). In 2015 she received a BA in Art History from NSCAD University before accidentally becoming a cartoonist that same year. Her comics and fat-positive illustrations have been featured on the hit Hulu show “Shrill,” illustrated Sofie Hagen’s 2019 book “Happy Fat,” and have been made into clothing, tattoos, and a newspaper comic strip called “Art Brat Comics.” Cronin currently teaches comics classes in NSCAD’s extended studies program and is writing her first graphic novel about a fat punk girl living in a swamp.
