Presenting The Directory 2021: a new printed publication by The Delicate Rébellion. It’s a curated gift-guide-meets-index of the most talented indie creatives - and I made it in! I’m seriously excited and honoured to be featured alongside such super talented babes I admire - Emma Jane Palin, Ruth MacGilp, Rebecca Journal, Atelier Akuko & more.

It’s also filled with wise words, sage advice and resources for freelancers, including Q&As with some seriously wonderful people (the likes of Art Director and Graphic Designer, Lisa Rahman, Jem Collins of Journo Resources and Queen of Finance Krystle McGillvery).

We’ve learnt first hand the struggle for survival as a small independent company—it’s always tough, but this year was another level. We know we’re not the only ones who aren’t prepared to give up on the dreams we’ve worked so hard for, so we decided to pull together a(nother) beautiful publication to celebrate the most inspiring people we know. - Hannah Taylor, Founder & Editor of The Delicate Rébellion.

If you’re thinking of buying a gift or searching to commission an artist, designer or writer, this is the MOST perfect publication for you.

The Directory has so much heart. Reading each page feels like spending time with a thoughtful friend who makes you smile and shares brilliant tips. Most of all, it’s a reminder of the power of community and lifting each other up when the going gets tough!

P.S. For the perfect reading combo, get yourself a copy of the (un)influenced issue . As Overleaf so succinctly described: “If optimism had its own publication - this would be it”. If that doesn’t sway you - I may have written a few lovely editorial features for the issue. 👀
