Emily Hurst Pritchett Interview

 For a long time now, I've been planning to interview illustrator Emily Hurst Pritchett. However, being the procrastinator I am, I haven't quite got around to it. Now, I suppose the point is kind of moot as Annie's Book Stop of Worcester conducted a great video interview with her.


It's up on YouTube, but I've posted it below. The interview is really great. In it, Emily gives great insight into her creative process, her own personal taste in books and pastimes, as well as what it's like illustrating for independent authors, publishers, and what she's up to with her personal art. As you watch, you might even see a couple familiar books being flashed. 



This interview was conducted last spring. At the time she was working on the illustrations and cover for As the Owl Flies, a collection of short stories and poems that I released last summer. Here is a sample of some of the wonderful work that she has done for me:
