News and reviews: “The Only One in the World”
Over the last few months I’ve been chatting all over the place about The Only One in the World – and I’m utterly delighted and proud of the work of its contributors, and mine in pulling the book together, and of Clan Destine Press for taking on the pitch and guiding its literary birth! CDP’s…

The Only One in the World: cover art by Judith Rossell I first encountered Judith Rossell’s charming art not in her children’s books, but when she designed the delicate and delightful cover for Billings Better Bookstore and Brasserie by Fin J Ross. Soon after, CDP publisher Lindy Cameron showed me the concept art Judith had…

The Only One in the World: internal art by Andrea L Farley/Altocello I first discovered the artist known as Altocello when Atlin Merrick waved at Andrea’s stunning portraits of Adam Driver, almost speechless with glee at the glory she beheld.
