Kaylyn Conway

Kaylyn Conway hails from the Bay Area California, where she was brainwashed with comics at an early age by her dad and Bill Watterson. She loves sci-fi, fantasy, crime and anything that will take the brain out for a good walk. Her hobbies include reading comics, making comics and social distancing before it was cool. Kaylyn’s specialties are writing, pencilling and inking. Her plans are to begin writing and drawing all the stories she couldn’t make into assignments in school.
