Ed will be tabling at two fairs in July this year. The first of these is the lovely South London Comic and Zine Fair, or SLCZF. As some readers may remember, this was when I made a sort-of return to fairs in 2023 after an absence of some time and was very pleasantly surprised. Since then I’ve also been attending fairs at Winchester, Goblin Market, and Thought Bubble in Harrogate.
I’ve been asked to speak on a panel at SLCZF, which I’m very much looking forward to.
This will be at Stanley Arts in Norwood on 19th July 2026 from 12 Noon. Entry is free.
The second fair is new. It’s called ARC London and takes place over four days in Peckham. Well, there’s an exhibition and panel talks…the actual fair is over the weekend. This is 9th-12th July 2026. The events happen in different venues – see the website for more details. I have been invited to speak on a panel here too. The invited guests look amazing for this show…I’m hoping to pick up some astonishing items.
As you can see in my scheme of things the second fair comes before the first, chronologically speaking but not post-wise. Also as further proof of my general balminess and lunacy, I am adding screengrabs taken from Instagram. I’m not sure why. I’m sure there must be a way to add an Instagram feed to WordPress.
Do come and see / hear the Pinsent at these events. I hope to have my new book completed in time. P.S. I’ll have plenty of cut-out puppets too, which you can only buy at my table.
