"Scarcity becomes an existential threat, rather than a condition confined to my own situation. The food room contradicts that feeling. Every surface bears proof of excess, of abundance."

Kathryn Eddy, illustrator of Daughter of Mother-of-Pearl, is a longtime friend & collaborator, so I'm tentacularly excited about this interview in Wizard of Claws. We talk artistic animal advocacy, how to sculpt a jellyfish, & more.
