As many of you know by now, I am a big fan of Sophie Blackall‘s work and have made several posts featuring her Missed Connections. I’m excited to share that she has recently created a new blog called Drawn From My Father’s Adventures. Here is Blackall’s description…

I have always loved my father’s stories, the grim ones from boarding school during the war, the exciting ones from being the son of a spy, the exotic and bizarre and beautiful ones from traveling to unpronounceable places long before there were guide books. I have always seen these stories as pictures and I thought it was high time I coaxed them in writing from the source and drew them.
