Introducing a new anthology, Modern Decadent I'm really pleased to announce that I'm editing the forthcoming anthology, Modern Decadent, for Wild Hunt Books. It has only been announced today, but I'm already feeling that 2027 can't come soon enough! The anthology will comprise ca. 10 stories that…

Cannot stress a)how excited I am to give this a go and b)just how many books I have in service of the theme. Finally I can justify years of spending on art books (jk I don't need to justify that)

As #NationalIllustrationDay draws to a close, time for one last post... We know they say not to judge by its cover, but we all do. The art a book is wrapped in is often as important as the words inside to the reader, thank you to all the freelance designers who help shape our books' identity! 1/9
