PODCAST DROP: Verse, Visuals & Special Edition Decisions — Making a Book with Intention
In this episode, Anna Featherstone explores with author Lande Jewels the many decisions that can sit around — and beyond — the writing of a book.
The conversation looks at what happens when authors think carefully about form, illustration, publishing models, and the wider impact of how their work is made and shared.
They talk about writing in verse, working with illustrations, choosing a pen name, publishing special editions with a focus on quality, using Kickstarter and thinking about social responsibility in authorship.
Along the way, Lande reflects on what she's learned by doing — offering practical insights for writers and creators who are curious about publishing choices beyond the manuscript.
