I’ve read it - had to! It’s so fun and witty and can’t wait to find out how on earth (or beneath actually) Shirley manages to get back home, if she does!

Wow!!! The cover looks amazing! I love the little bit of sky in the opening of the O - what a cool idea! I'm really looking forward to this TRILOGY (Wow!!!). I also loved the original Hellboss comic very much and am happy to read that you will also keep this one going! Hot Desk - oh yeah! 🔥😂 But also really excited about the adventures of Shirley and George. The preview bits look super promising and I always love the dialogues of your protagonist duos so much! This will be a delight! (Not to jinx it, but it certainly will be!)

Thanks so much Saki! The sky "O" was the designer Jen's idea, it's good isn't it! And thank you about Hot Desk, and your nice words about my dialogues! X
