This one was inspired by a true story. I fell off my chair laughing when I read about guitarist Rik Emmett changing the spelling of his name to 'Rik' after it was misspelled on the cover of Triumph's first album 'rather than have the album recalled or cause confusion with fans'. I suspect that he saw the spelling and liked it. Otherwise that's tremendously accommodating of him! When I went searching the web for possible misspellings of Yvonne, I saw 'Evan' on a page of Starbucks gaffes, which added the transgender angle.

Try completing a puzzle online - they have just the right number of pieces for a coffee-break challenge and you gradually reveal the cartoon.
If you like Yvonne then the good news is that you can support the author, buy the image to keep and avail yourself of some really useful kit, such as mugs, bags, coasters, mouse mats, postcards, greetings cards, even posters and prints.
Don't see the item you'd like with the cartoon you'd like? Just email me, I'll be happy to arrange it for you.
You're welcome to share any Yvonne image on the web and social media, exactly as it appears (ie without editing the image at all). It must keep the copyright notice below the box (which is part of the image, so it will remain as long as you don't crop it off).
