An October 2007 24hr comic in which Francesca related her career as a financially successful business cartoonist and the lifestyle changes that this necessitates. Her vocation as an illustrator shows, the communication by pictures is confident. Valuable insights are portrayed in the landscape of businessperson, celebrity rockstar, and artist. And by extension, it also subtlely calls upon creators to ask the question : what do you want your comics to be about ? and shows the perils of one such outcome of choice and success.

At times 'Nasty Solitary Habit' is funny, warming, empathic and anecdotally sharing. Well thought out, and designed, its to Francesca's credit that I never realised this were a 24hr comic until the final page. Well done Francesca ! This is an enjoyable autobio read, with a clear narrative, rarely with self-conscious pretension.

On sale weekly at London Underground Comics and the upcoming No Barcodes festival. Alternatively you can order it from here for £1.50 and you can go and have a look at her other works on her website.
