I've had lots of new folowers here this week because of the announcement that a Why Don't You Love Me movie is in development with A24. Here are some exerts of the comic-strip in case you've never seen it before.

Not a dream! Not a hoax! Not a mental breakdown! A24 has optioned the rights to Why Don’t You Love Me? with plans to develop my graphic novel for film! Jennifer Lawrence is set to star. She is also set to produce with Ari Aster. variety.com/2024/film/news/j…

Let’s dance.

Here’s the cover to the new print of There’s No Time Like The Present, coming early next year from Drawn & Quarterly.

Why Don’t You Love Me has been shortlisted in the Broken Frontier awards FOR 2023. It’s a public vote and that’s YOU.

The Comics Journal asks its contributors for their favourites of 2023 and Why Don’t You Love Me makes it FIVE times. “Rainey, on the other hand, has something specific and difficult to say. A real comic for adults.” tcj.com/the-best-of-2023-as-…

Why Don’t You Love Me is one of The Guardian’s best graphic novels of 2023! “Top of the list!” @DandQ theguardian.com/culture/2023…

Please remember Why Don’t You Love Me in your best of the year lists. Graphic novels, comics, books, albums, objects, buildings, people, thoughts, faces, meals etc.

Viz The Barber’s Pole features two strips by me in it. It’s the first time my work has made it to the annual.
