Source Point Press is a publisher in alternative fiction in books, comics and graphic novels, with a focus on horror, science fiction and pulp fiction. One of their books is The Seance Room, written by Ben Goldsmith and illustrated by Keyla Valerio. The story features a haunted mansion owned by a ghost monger. Six ghosts reside within, and should you find your way to the Seance Room, one of them will enlighten you.
As I walked past the Source Point Press booth, which was covered in books and staffed by several creators, I glanced a a sketch that was lying on top of one of the books. Ben Goldsmith noticed my interest and mentioned the sketch was from their artist intern, Dylan B. Caleho. The sketch was of Death, one of the ghosts residing in the Seance Room. As he pitched the story to me, I asked if it was possible for Dylan to provide a commission. Ben asked Dylan if she would, we discussed the subject and agreed on the ghosts from the second story Love and Power.
Dylan is an art student at the Moore College of Art and currently serving an internship at the Source Point Press. Dylan's work can be followed at dylanbeedoodles and Instagram. Dylan provided a great sketch, thank you and I wish you the best of luck. Hope to see you at your own booth in the future!
