My collaborative project with Devin Person has been released into the world in both paperback and hardcover editions!
I’ve had a hard time coming up with a good way to describe the book so I felt incredibly lucky that Devin was able to sum things up succinctly for the product description on Lulu:
Metafiction is writing that knows it is writing.
In SO LET IT BE WRITTEN – A Wizards’ Guide to Metafiction, this already self-aware genre folds in on itself in a magical exploration of what metafiction can teach us about writing, reading, and the strange experience of existing at all. Across essays, short stories, memoirs, and comics, our two wizards, Devin Person (host of This Podcast is a Ritual, hypnotherapist, and wizard extraordinaire) and Eric J. Millar (writer and artist of The Disruption Generator, The No Gods But My Own trilogy, and self-titled Garbage Wizard), lead the reader into a deeper understanding of metafiction and its implications. From groundbreaking works by Italo Calvino and Grant Morrison to a mind blowing theory on how Chat-GPT really works, this is a book that will change the way you look at books forever.
This book was an interesting experiment for me. It gave me a chance to try unusual ways of drawing and allowed for new modes of design that I hadn’t explored before. I wore a lot of different influences on my sleeve throughout.
The most recent episode of Devin’s podcast THIS PODCAST IS A RITUAL probably explains the book and everything that went into in much better detail. You can listen to it here.
Again, the book is available to order in both paperback and hardcover directly from Lulu.
