What would you say is the biggest inspiration for your work?

The Natural World – it’s unique in the Universe….....so far as we know

Look out for my new work this year

Forthcoming works include a playscript about a Victorian naturalist who becomes an exhibit in his own museum. Also, a spoken-word piece that imagines an AI entity with very human sensibilities. Later this year, I expect to publish ‘Erin Greengloves and the Thieving Magpie’, the third and last book in the ‘Erin’ series.

About Felfira Moon Designs’s work:

Tell us a bit about yourself and your work.

My name is Fiona, I am an animation graduate and ex-bookseller. I've always loved books, so I mixed in my creativity and my discovery of enamel pins many years ago, boom! Next thing I know I'm making them myself! Since then I've designed and made all sorts of bookish and nerdy inspired work, from enamel pins to wooden charms to prints and stickers!

What would you say is your biggest inspiration for your work?

Books and their readers. I love seeing how people respond to books and translating that into my work to show how I feel about books too in the hopes that others can relate. I also really love galaxies and the colour purple, I will use any excuse to include the colour wherever possible!

About Lenny’s work:

Tell us a bit about yourself and your work.

I am a Science Fiction writer based in Edinburgh. Veritas, my debut novel, was published in 2022 and is part of a series, the second book of which I am currently writing!

My first novel was published in May 2022 and I am working on the second in the series. I have at least four titles planned in the series. One of my motives for my writing is to break the stigma around science fiction and to bring it to a new audience and to break down the barriers and stereotypes that surround the genre. My work is set 800 years in our future which gives me scope to play with ideas and innovations in science, medicine and technology while weaving in stories of family, love and friendship.

Do you have any new work that you'd like to highlight?

My first novel - Veritas: the Captain’s Redemption

What would you say is your biggest inspiration for your work?

My biggest inspiration has been Star Trek, but also my love of Boys’ Own Adventure type stories and I wanted to bring that sense of adventure and thrill into a space setting.

Where can people go to purchase your work?

Directly through myself (via website or social media) if they want it signed, or it’s also available on Amazon - it is cheaper to buy from me directly however!

About Page One:

Tell us a bit about yourself and your work.

At Write Gear, we want to create products to help writers of all kinds tell their stories. Why? Because we’re writers ourselves. Hailing from the world’s first UNESCO City of Literature in Edinburgh, we love to tell stories and create new worlds for people – including ourselves – to explore. But we also understand that sometimes the tools to tell those stories can be lacking; whether it’s a tattered notebook or simply that we don’t have anything with us to work on our next great idea, we know how frustrating it can be to lose track of that story we wanted to tell. Plus, let’s be honest, all writers love shiny new toys, right?

Our first product, Page One, is a notebook we designed because we genuinely wanted a product like it, and couldn’t find one. We like to think of it as a notebook created by writers, for writers.

In addition to the notebook, we also host a weekly podcast called Page One - The Writer's Podcast where we speak to writers of all kinds to learn about how they go about creating their stories. Each new episode is a deep dive into that guest’s writing history, including how they broke into the industry and what their writing process is. We also explore their work, and try and eke out any exciting forthcoming tales! Past guests have included the likes of Ben Aaronovitch, Fonda Lee, Joe Abercrombie and many more.

Where can people go to purchase your work?

You can check out our Page One notebooks (specially-designed notebooks to help you tell your next great story) and our podcast on our website. Be sure to follow us on our social media to stay up-to-date with the latest offers and find out who the latest guest is on The Page One Podcast.

I'm a Glasgow-based artist working in comics, illustration, narrative games and traditional printmaking. My work often has strong queer and environmental themes and draws from wildlife, folklore and myth. I've made comics about queer Arthurian knights, criminal fairies, and Scottish devils, as well as books of cursed swords, fictional clowns, and poetry about birds. I’m currently working on environmental horror games, zines about goblins, and even more queer Arthurian comics!

Wildlife and the natural world, and how we incorporate nature into ourselves via folklore and storytelling.
