The last book I had the pleasure of reading and editing is by the amazing @emroy.bsky.social. Her new book, Bloodletting Go, comes out soonish! Punky and full of queer awesomeness.

Had so much fun drawing cover art for @emroy.bsky.social , who approached me with one of the best pitches for a book.
Lynchian…. Green Room-esque… Blood everywhere…. No really add more blood. Awesome! Thank you!
I love these ‘shattered mirror in a punk bar bathroom’ vibes

i read the hunger games for the first time when i was around 10 or 11 years old. sunrise on the reaping has recontextualized so much with bittersweet nostalgia and gut wrenching parallels and political commentary. i fucking loved it
