My newest review is now online! I talk about Ayu Inui's newest manga series, which was a fun, character-focused yuri series discussing how clothes, and people, make us feel about ourselves.
Unmasking Neurodivergence in the Manga World: Patricia C. Baxter explores three titles, including Spacewalking With You, and how they highlight the evolving portrayals of neurodivergence in manga.

I'm really glad that I had the opportunity to write about another Yuriko Hara manga, especially one as wonderful as "Out of the Cocoon".
Please heed the content warnings going in though, this manga anthology has some heavy and potentially triggering subject matter.
I have published my "What You May Have Missed" list discussing some of my favourite video games and interactive fiction released in 2025. I hope you find at least one new game on this list that catches your interest!
Developers include @bagenzo, @JuliaMinamata and more!

My newest article is now online. I'm really happy that I had a chance to talk about several great manga series that resonated with me, and my experiences of feeling pressured to socially mask as an autistic person.
A new year has begun, so here is my annual "What You May Have Missed" list! This one covers some of my favourite indie comics that were released in 2025. I hope you find one new comic on here that catches your interest:
