Song of Solomon

In 2021, Thornwillow Press published the first ever fine press edition of Toni Morrison’s Song of Solomon. Letterpress printed and expertly bound by hand, this edition celebrates the enduring legacy of one of the greatest authors in American letters. As Thornwillow’s editor and marketing lead, my responsibilities and contributions to the edition included:

• assisting the publisher in selection of the title

• copy- and script writing for a successful crowdfunding campaign

• composition of the Publisher’s Note within the publication

This project was supported by more than 400 backers on Kickstarter and raised over $150,000.
