Camille Perron-Cormier introduces her witchy YA graphic novel

Welcome to the True North Country Comics Podcast — originating in Canada and celebrating comic book and graphic novel creators and supporters.

On this episode, I chat with Camille Perron-Cormier about her new YA graphic novel The Secret Society of the Willbrook Witches published by Second Story Press.

Camille Perron-Cormier is based in the Greater Moncton Area in New Brunswick. She completed a Bachelor of Arts and Design degree with a concentration in comic books at the Université du Québec en Outaouais (UQO) in 2018. Since graduating, she has returned to New Brunswick, where she creates comics, illustrations, graphic recordings, graphic design, and leads art workshops. She has illustrated several children’s books with Éditions Bouton d’or Acadie, a francophone publisher based in New Brunswick. With them, she also launched her first graphic novel series, Crapaud et Romarin, translated into English by Second Story Press as The Willbrook Witches series. The first volume was awarded the Découverte de l’année (Discovery of the Year) award at Les Éloizes in 2024.

The story of The Secret Society of the Willbrook Witches goes like this: “Andrea is nervous to start university in the small town of Willbrook. Introverted and shy, she’s living away from home for the first time and finding it hard to fit in. When Andrea meets Elaine and Sybil, they quickly welcome her to their group. Andrea might have finally found her people, but they have a huge secret…they’re witches—and they think Andrea is too. As Elaine and Sybil teach her how to harness her powers, she finally starts to feel like she belongs. But the girls learn there’s another witch on campus, and this one might not have good intentions. Soon, Andrea learns that the world of magic is much bigger than she imagined.”
