Toronto! I will be participating in the International Festival of Authors next month! One of the things will be a panel with Adrian Tomine! The other panel sounds like it also might be interesting?:

Saturday, October 24th at 1pm–2.15pm: Round Table Discussion with Tim Conley; Jillian Tamaki and Sarah Winman. The event will be hosted and moderated by Brian Francis.

The discussion will deal with how the truth can come out of exaggeration and higher-super realities through different forms of writing. An hour and fifteen minutes event including a Q&A and signing.

Here is the IFOA info.

Here is a series of illustrations to accompany the short story Cowan, by Kris Bertin. They were created for the Walrus Magazine, one of my favourite clients.

Despite all my better judgment, I still love designing illustrations for print. I think there’s a lot of potential storytelling in using the physical elements of the page.
