Cartoonist Steph never planned to start a comic series – she just wanted to leave her partner Julie a few cute doodles as love notes. But what began as a simple, personal gesture soon grew into “Little Note Comics,” a charming collection that captures the everyday quirks, laughter, and warmth of their relationship.
Of course, their dog, Nutmeg, occasionally steals the spotlight, adding a playful touch to their stories showcased in the comic series. During our last interview, Steph shared that both Julie and Nutmeg constantly inspire her, especially because their personalities contrast with her own. That balance of differences – and the love that bridges them – shines through every panel, making her comics feel tender, funny, and completely relatable to anyone who’s ever loved their opposite.
Scroll down to see the latest cartoons created by Julie, and let us know in the comments which situation you find the most relatable.

Relatable but sometimes you wake up either 3 hours after you went to bed or RIGHT before your alarm

"... but it's selfish not to want the same things I want, you brunette!"
Reminds me of a certain family member, who opens her Christmas presents when they arrive and (later) says that Christmas is losing its sparkle
I (non-lesbian asexual) thought these were lovely and the fact that they're a lesbian couple was even better.
Haha! I never even realised they were lesbians. I just saw two people in a relationship. Imagine my surprise when I went to the comments and they talked about the couple being lesbians. I scrolled up and down for a bit and yeah, I guess I see it now. But I don't care. They are cute.
