From Sad Ghosts to Bad Thoughtz-Jillian Fleck 

Jillian Fleck is an emerging comic artist currently studying in the University of Dundee’s MLitt Comics Studies program.  Her comics have been published in a number of international anthologies and zines, as well as online.  Jillian’s comics work deals with issues of depression, anxiety, sexuality, and longing, often saddling the line between humour and angst.  In this presentation she will discuss the development of her comic making practice and her thoughts on portraying delicate states such as depression and anxiety through storytelling.
