 Lorin Morgan-Richards, of Amish and Welsh descent, is a Los Angeles based author and illustrator of dark humor handmade books, composer of storytelling, and curator of unique shows and festivals.
In 2009, Richards released his first book 'Simon Snootle and OTHER small stories' under his small press, A Raven Above Press. 'A Boy Born from Mold and Other Delectable Morsels' and 'A Little Hard to Swallow:1334' was released in 2010.
In my stories, I wanted to make sure I had a personal connection with how each book was created. The process I entail is in writing, illustrating, drafting, printing, sewing, binding, and pressing each by hand. This creates a slight imperfection that adds a sense of life to each one that would not otherwise be present in a mass produced book. My books are completely handmade!
In 2011, 'A Boy Born from Mold and Other Delectable Morsels' (read by Jason Shepherd) was released as an audiobook, reaching #46 in the top 100 I-tunes downloads.
Lorin Morgan-Richards has curated Bringing The Circle Together, the 2011 West Coast Eisteddfod: Welsh Festival of Arts, and Necessary Discomforts: An Artistic Tribute to Rozz Williams.
