Over on her blog, which she started some time ago and started updating again recently, Jill Thompson talks about her latest project, Magic Trixie:
So, to answer the question, “Jill, I haven’t seen any of your work lately. Have I just missed it or are you working on something?”
I’m working my way through the second of four painted graphic novels that I’m writing and illustrating for Harper Collins. They are called Magic Trixie. It’s taking me quite a while, because they are each 94 pages of painted art. Plus, all the design and cover art… Each story revolves around our main character, a little witch girl named Magic Trixie. She lives in a greystone builing with her folks and grandparents and her cousin Tansy. Her mom runs a cafe from the first floor flat. It is called Elixir. Magic Trixie goes to Monstersorri school with her friends Loupie Garou-the wereworlf girl, Stitch Patch-the patchwork boy, the Twins who are vampires and Princess Nefi-a mummy girl.
