Despite that, our personal / work circumstances have changed dramatically so it feels a natural time for us to wind down this project. We're closing our website shop now but will continue to sell books at occasional pop-up events. So do come say hi if you see us in the book wild!

[Space Cat Press @SpaceCatPress]

We’ve had an absolute blast flying this small press from 2019. And are very proud of the 5 beautiful books we produced with your help during that time.

A big thank you to all the wonderful writers we worked with, artist Sally Barnett and our loyal readers. You made it a joy!

[Space Cat Press @SpaceCatPress]

Hi Space Cats.

We’re calling home to tell you our little indie press rocket is docking permanently from here on. You will still see us at a few pop-up events, such as Leicester Libraries Local Writers Fair on Sat. 12th October. But we won’t be doing any new publishing.

[Space Cat Press @SpaceCatPress]

@JulianD86666247 Thank you for the well wishes, Julian! 😊 🙏

[Space Cat Press @SpaceCatPress]

Wow! 5 years since we joined X. And more importantly, since we launched our little indie press rocket. Tho' currently docked in hiatus (due to illness & new job), we hope to come back better. Big wave to all our wonderful authors & readers in meantime. Thank you! #MyXAnniversary

"Alice Through The Looking Glass" at Guildford Castle in England

This sculpture is located in Guildford’s Castle Grounds in a walled garden behind the bowling green, near the house that Lewis Carroll used to rent. It was created by sculptor Jeanne Argent.

Another one for the @SpaceCatPress album. Ship's cat having some downtime. This is very much my energy level at mo. ☺

Finished my drawing of Snowflake Snoozing with white pastel pencil & chalk. You can imagine trying to comb the knots out of that fur while she is swiping with her claws. But all peaceful here. ✏ 😽

[Space Cat Press @SpaceCatPress]

We're so disappointed to be missing @StatesofIndie today. But @siobsi is ill & Darragh works Saturday. So no @SpaceCatPress stall. 😿 But do enjoy this fabulous FREE Indie publishing festival if you're in Leicester @dmuleicester. 📚 🤗

[Siobhan Logan @siobsi]

Still struggling to get over latest bout of post-viral fatigue. But cheered myself up with a morning drawing @SpaceCatPress in chalk. Love how Snowflake's fur pops against the black paper. To be continued... ✍
