West of Weeping Rock was originally selected from ~800 submissions for publication. It’s a survival horror campfire story about grief, isolation, belonging. Ari Yarwood worked closely and thoughtfully with us on edits and Carina Taylor did beautiful work on book design. I love this book very much.

Start of an attempt at a study of Frederick Lord Leighton’s Return of Persephone. Unfortunately my digital painting experience is fully Vibes-Based but some day I’ll take a class about it

I’m sad to be sharing @kendrawcandraw.bsky.social’s beautiful cover art this way, but wanted to update for those who were looking forward to West of Weeping Rock that we’ve parted ways with our publisher so it won’t be released in December as planned. We’re hoping to find a new home for it soon. 🖤

Hi! I’m Lauren. I have a very important and perfect dog named Pan, I’m a writer (graphic novels, CNF, fiction), and I’m starting a Masters in Creative Writing at the University of Cambridge in the fall. Big astrology/mythology nerd and I make linocut prints for fun.

The other day I was compiling places I enjoyed in Orkney for a friend who’s visiting and I was like “I miss the sweet grey cat who was the only other living creature and sat in my lap for 20 minutes at the Broch of Gurness” and when I looked up the Broch on Google Maps—
