Princess Pups
The Princess Pups are an excitable group of puppies that have silly adventures as they explore their kingdom in the clouds and the magical land below! Join TeaCup Pup, Fluff Pup, Corgi Pup, Pug Pup and Scruffy Pup as they play, party, and get into piles of quirky fun! From crafting the perfect pizza party to visiting pals in space, this colorful, cozy comic features a variety of funny chapter stories and gags for all ages.
The comic’s format intentionally focuses on visuals rather than text, making it appropriate for early readers and those with learning differences such as dyslexia. By using a highly visual format with limited text, Princess Pups transcends language barriers to reach a global audience and encourage readers of all kinds.

Princess Pups is a comic version of what I loved out of Saturday Morning cartoons: It’s colorful, it’s silly and there’s a team of friends getting into wacky adventures! I wanted to make something that anyone could enjoy regardless of their age or reading abilities. Drawing Princess Pups as a mostly wordless comic means readers of all sorts can read and share it with their friends and loved ones. It's inclusive for folks that don't know how to read yet, read differently, or read a language other than my own. One of the best parts of creating Princess Pups was watching my own kiddo go from pointing to the pictures as a toddler to coming up with his own ideas for future comics as a grade schooler.

Hiya, I’m Lindsay. I’ve been drawing comics since grade school. I loved comics so much that I taught myself how to code websites just so I could share my comics online (back when that was the only way to post your comics!). I have a B.F.A and M.F.A in Sequential Art from the Savannah College of Art and Design. Over the years, I’ve continued creating and sharing comics online and in book format. Currently living in St. Louis with my husband, my kiddo, and a pile of pets.
