Mandi Goodier



Mandi Goodier is a Designer, Writer, and Artist Book Maker.

"This book is an attractive dumping ground for some ideas I picked up then abandoned. It seemed sad to let such ideas and images sit in a closed journal for an eternity so I collated them. The result was experimentation with both typography and image to produce a zine containing a selection of super short stories."
