I had a good day yesterday. Baby red room at the BFI, Moonwalkers at the Light Room, catching up with so many people at the TS Eliot prizegiving, and some solid weird writing on the train. All good things.

Just got my hands on this beautiful poetry comic by @chrissywilliams.bsky.social and @tomhumberstone.com. It's wonderfully written and illustrated and it's an artifact that cries out to be treasured and studied thanks to the way the art engages with it's printing process.

FIGHT THE MOON
This year I made a tiny booklet of linocuts with @chrissywilliams.bsky.social, Fight the Moon.
Chrissy supplied the maxims and requested crude icons that you might carry into battle for that cause.
