I’ve got a little book arts-y sort of thing in the pipeline that should be making its debut here…

(Planning to be a bit more careful with the craft knife this time round 🩸)
Next stop: #Brighton!

We'll be tabling - alongside lots of #bookarts greats - at Brighton Art Book Fair on December 6th and 7th. See you all there!

(PS We'll keep the #CPFC #zines under the table - tip us the wink if you want one... 😉🦅)

Pssst… keep 'em peeled tomorrow morning for the launch of our latest Colossive Cartography.

This one has the longest title to date, and features a guest appearance from Turnpike Lane Tube Station.

What more could you ask for?

Poor Tom did THIS to his finger while making the usually-very-popular #CroydonSpaceport Historical Maps & Guides last week - and then nobody even bought one at Winchester Comics Fair. 😱
