The seven talismans in paper frames that feature in #intothedarkwoodsbook They include a doll, a bird, a ring, a rose, a shirt, a shoe and a key. I'll soon be adding a gallery for you to share your talismans, which I'm really looking forward to! 💫
They're here! This is what 1,000 books looks like #intothedarkwoodsbook #booksarrived!
Work arriving in the gallery for my upcoming #intothedarkwoodsexhibition @longandryle Opening night: 17th November 4 - 8pm. I will be announcing news of a virtual gallery tour soon.
#intothedarkwoodsbook template for a rose. A #rose is a symbol of love, but also a symbol of impermanence and decay. The rose represents an acceptance that everything is in constant flux. Reach for the rose when you feel stuck in a moment or a place. @into.the.dark.woods #sublackwellstudio #intothedarkwoods new release date 10th November
New Release Date: 10th November. Inevitably it seems, there has been a slight delay with delivery of my books. I've been informed today that they will arrive on 10th November. If you've pre-ordered or backed a copy on kickstarter, we'll make sure that it's posted out as soon as possible from that date. #intothedarkwoodsbook

I was in South Yorkshire last weekend to give a first advance copy of my book to my tutor from Bradford College #dianebates, who I liken to Baba Yaga the witch in my introduction. I'm not sure how Diane took to being likened to a witch, but anyone who knows the story of Vasilisa, knows that Baba Yaga is the best! Diane was a huge inspiration to me, and still is. She handed me the burning torch to show me the way. I didn't take a photo of Diane with her book, which I regret, as she is always immaculately dressed in a large black jewel encrusted hat, black jacket adorned with jewels, more jewels and full make up, even when she's at home on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Instead I found this painting of her, by her friend #frankwortleyjohnson, which I think portrays her character very well. #intothedarkwoodsbook
It feels like quite a momentous occasion to hold an actual copy of my book in my hands. Seven Advanced Copies arrived in the post this weekend. I'll be sending these out to bookshops, journalists and book vloggers for reviews. 🤞 Thank you to everyone who has backed the book and followed me on my journey here. I can't wait to share it with you. Launch date: 1st November #intothedarkwoodsbook 💙
Music to my ears #intothedarkwoodsbook
This is where you would have found me for the past 12 hours, at my computer, sending out #intothedarkwoods press releases to journalists
Some illustrations in the book from #donkeyskin, #bluebeard and #theredshoes Photographs by John Reynolds #intothedarkwoodsbook
I sat down with the #intothedarkwoods F&G's yesterday, and oohed and aahed my way through them. What struck me the most is the pure brilliance of the golds and jewels, which seem to shimmer and shine off the pages. C&C printers have done an amazing job, I'm thrilled! The page size (that Brad chose) is perfect, with John Reynolds detailed photography drawing you in. This has been a collabrative effort between myself, Emma Yeo (who assisted in making the artworks), the photographer, and also Brad (designer) in San Francisco, who fortuitously shared my vision for #intothedarkwoods book from the outset. I can't wait to share it with you! #novemberreleasedate #intothedarkwoodsbook #sublackwellstudio
