If you are in the UK please consider signing this UK government petition asking the government not to consider changing the meaning of 'sex' in the Equality Act to mean 'biological sex'

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/627984

They're at 62k. Can we get it over 100k?

The main English/Welsh Equalities Commission (EHRC) are promoting this transpbobic change (not Equality at all). They can't even define what they mean https://jane-67706.medium.com/gender-the-ehrc-explain-a17cd4332b5

Most people don't support transphobia. We all need to challenge it

Petition: Commit to not amending the Equality Act's definition of sex

It has been reported that the Government may amend the Equality Act to "make it clear that sex means biological sex rather than gender." The Government has previously committed to not remove legal protections for trans people, an already marginalised group, but this change would do so.

After 660 pages, the end of Finding Home is out TODAY on tapas early access (6 weeks till it's public!)

I always wanted the comic to be one complete story, and planned the final words when I was first writing more than 5 years ago. I'm so excited for the whole comic to be out in the world.

PRAXIS Interview with Matthew Kinlin

Matthew Kinlin, author of novels Teenage Hallucination, Curse Red Curse Blue Curse Green and the new novella The Glass Abbatoir (available now at DFL Lit) kindly agreed to interview me about PRAXIS…

Queer Tempo

Currently writing PRAXIS Year 2: Difference and Repetition 😱 I've reached a stage where writing a comic script feels kinda miraculous and the feeling of bringing together all the disparate elements and watching them "click" into place is such a buzz.

Especially when I'm weaving a cross-temporal story that has elements of the past and future running through it ✨✨✨

Finally have ethical approval for my queer temporal workshops too, so some of you can expect an invite soon!

Some recent commissions for Dundee University, ConFAB and a queer archive workshop at the Saltire Society.

Most of my work over the last 5 years has been charities and small(ish) community arts organisations, and honestly, it's rewarding work. They value artists, pay going rates, and they're usually really lovely to work with and you get the warm and fuzzies from knowing you're working with people who actually make a difference.

The gulf between that and more "commercial" contracts is huuuuge.

Today has been incredibly stressful as the wonderful, loving little goblin dog in the first image has had to have ultrasounds, blood works & more, & will probably need more treatment. With that in mind, & my savings now at nil, now is the perfect time for you to hire me to letter your books.

I've worked for Image, Penguin Publishing, Schoolastic, Harper Collins, Walker Books, Humanoids, Heavy Metal & many more.

Rob Jones Letters

I last talked about it here about 5 years ago, so for new followers:

πŸŒΏπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ FINDING HOME is my (multi award winning, now-complete) slowburn queer romance webcomic. You can read the whole thing free on tapas & webtoons. https://tapas.io/series/FindingHome/info

Vibes: gay fantasy road trip, extreme mutual pining, member of the fae court decides no thanks actually, secretly all about mental health/ trauma recovery, at least 40% quiet drawings of forests, growth (mostly emotional but also magic plants).

Oh hi, everyone. I've been off Twitter for, like, 5 years now and basically ignored Mastodon cos it was a mess but it turns out it looks all cute and cuddly now and might actually, possibly, be a legit alternative? Oh well, better get posting some art then!
