Check it out! Dolltopia was name-checked in National Mail for LG Fashion Week coverage!

“The pink in question is actually magenta – the whole palette, in fact, black white and fuchsia. They’re the shades of safe, parent-sanctioned teenage rebellion, of more girly Emily Strange, of Avril Lavigne’s Black Star perfume, of Abby Denson’s superb new grrrl-power-through-fashion graphic novel Dolltopia, of rockabilly punk pin-ups in polka-dots. “

Matt Loux and I are coming to Toronto this Friday! Come to our event and say hi! There will be cupcakes.

This weekend is another crazy one since I’m covering the NYC Wine and Food Festival, but I just had to take some time out to check out the Super Wow show and it was amazing!

My new book Dolltopia is out! It’s a fun and quirky tale about dolls who are tired of being controlled by humans, so they start their own society, and you can read a preview here! It’s not exactly food related, BUT, my publisher, Green Candy Press, is sending me on a book tour with cupcakes! That’s right, a cupcake tour! In October and November I will be making numerous stops in New York, New England, Canada, and the West Coast, with local cupcakes at each appearance. I am having my friends at Cupcakes Take the Cake help me with recommendations along the way (though some choices may be dictated purely by location and if they can deliver). I am open to readers’ cupcake suggestions as well. My intention is to photograph them along the way and blog about them as the tour happens. Come out and meet me, check out Dolltopia, and have a cupcake! Also at each stop, if you bring in a made-over or punked out doll, you could win a free autographed copy of Dolltopia!
