My name’s Gigi, and I write a comic called Cucumber Quest, which is published twice a week online. Since its launch in April of 2011, I’ve completed two chapters of the story, and now I’d like to compile them into a printed book.
Cucumber Quest, unsurprisingly, is about a young boy named Cucumber. He’s just been accepted to the school of his dreams, but since everyone around him thinks his dreams are kind of lame, he and his little sister, Almond, must instead embark on a quest to save the world. You know—ancient evil, legendary sword, all of that stuff. It’s a lighthearted, RPG-inspired adventure suitable for all ages, and you can read it for yourself here!

Wollstonecraft
London 1826: The Advent of the Steam Age
11 year old Ada has a problem: her governess, Miss Coverlet, has quit her job to go get married (a dumb idea if ever there was one, if you ask Ada) and her new tutor Percy ("Peebs") is a total drip. She'd rather be left to her own devices – literally – inventing things and solving math problems and ignoring people altogether.
She's also forced to study alongside the imaginative girlie-girl Mary, who's always going on about romance and exotic travels. Fortunately, Mary's appetite for adventure leads her to propose the two girls open a detective agency, and when an heiress shows up with a case about a missing diamond, it's the perfect puzzle to coax Ada out of her shell.
This is the made up story about two very real girls – Ada, the world's first computer programmer, and Mary, the world's first science fiction author – caught up in a steampunk world of hot-air balloons and steam engines, jewel thieves and mechanical contraptions. For readers 8-12.
