[Josephine Taylor @jtaylorauthor]

Since Eye of a Rook came home to me from Victoria, I've been enthralled by its intricate interiors. So much gratitude to artist @DianneJacono for her empathetic and robust response to my novel, and to Jo Canham @BlarneyBooks for bringing us together through the #biblioartprize 💖

[Terri-ann White @ Upswell @terriannwhite]
