Eek - Typism Summit THIS Week, and I forgot to mention - my bad!


Hey, hey, Reader!

I know, I know, totally my bad, and honestly, the school holidays, the extreme heat and the horrifying genocide in Palestine have all consumed a huge amount of my time the last 6 weeks, bbbbuuutttt today I have made time to sit down and email you, Reader, because you matter and I don’t want you to miss this excellent event!

So, to compress - here are the details:

  • 23 speakers (including me!) will be presenting workshops online, at the Typism Skills Summit this week.
  • Everything from designing Whimsical Serif Letters, the Fundamentals of Blackletter Calligraphy or Creating Balanced Lettering Compositions to my workshop on Experimental Letters Through Play!
  • You’ll hear from some fantastic experts like Tamer Ghoneim, Aurelie Maron, Vinitha Mammen, Wayne Thompson, Jimbo Bernaus, Nico Ng, and Maria Montes, as well as type designers, calligraphers, Procreate artists, and many more.
