Remarks:

The art style is smudgy and character designs tend to be less willowy and more realistic. All her characters look disheveled or rumpled, though that may be a side effect of the smudgy art style. These short stories all have some interesting little twist to them, a lot of younger semes, a fair amount of violent interaction. I really like the stories, though not always the art work.
