Since these things are going round:

I'm Aimee, I market things, specifically books. These are some specific books I've worked on (though there are hundreds more at this point, and my shelf space is limited)

Posts will vary between books and video games plus other nerdy pursuits. Enjoy!

💙📚
A shelf of books I've worked on: The Silence Project, The Other Valley, Aurora Rising, Aurora Burning, Bored Gay Werewolf, Limberlost, Everyone in This Room Will Someday Be Dead, The Keeper of Lost Things, Motherthing, Kala

Gulped down this novella. Funny, pointed, uncomfortable, Hunchback fits so much into so few pages #booksky 📚💙

First trip to @hepworthwakefield.bsky.social was a resounding success. Forbidden Territories: 100 Years of Surreal Landscapes was brilliant, bringing known artists and overlooked ones together in really interesting ways. Loved it!

'No, I don't check the book's spelling. No, don't talk to journalists either. Nope, covers are designed by designers...'

And so it goes. Nothing if not enigmatic
