Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 21/10/2025Thanks for posting this essay. I remain a fan of Struzen, and I hope this isn’t misinterpreted as a “take down” of Struzen. It was my reaction to a documentary film released at the time that gave little context to Struzen’s place in illustration history and his influences. 010

Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 21/10/2025Thank you so much! It was a pleasure to talk to you! I did a little more um-ing and uh-ing than I would have liked, but otherwise I’m happy about how it turned out! You asked some great questions! And thanks again for the opportunity. 010
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 06/10/2025I’ll be reading my book The Black Market at The Avid Reader on the 26th! 010
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 06/10/2025I’ve got too many friends who I know aren’t going anywhere, but that’s kind of self perpetuating. Also: I wrote a kid’s novel! Just came out last month. 000
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 06/10/2025My new book, The Black Market from Union Square Kids! Available simultaneously in paperback, hardcover, digital and audiobook! 010
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 06/10/2025You disappeared on Instagram and I wondered where you went! I’m glad to find you here. 110
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 25/07/2025Regina got me this licorice cake for my birthday! Licorice flavored with licorice buttercream and licorice and fennel decorations! (If you don’t like licorice you don’t need to tell me) It was delicious! I’m not sure why it’s not more of a thing! 030
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 02/06/2025It’s made of that really thick plastic, so not the traditional wheelbarrow I’m sure you’re picturing. 110
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 10/05/2025I had a roommate who kept putting my cat out because “cats belong outside.” Until I lost the cat. It was eventually found and adopted by our neighbor. I just gave up and let her have it. And it became an indoor cat. It was better off. 100
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 05/03/2025Thanks! But if you could also mention that this is from my book, Olive. 000
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 02/12/2024Another image from my new book Olive. Currently working on a fourth book in the color series, Ginger, and wrapping up work on my middle grade novel, The Black Market. 070
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 02/12/2024I dig it! Hey! Hi! You lettered my comic for SpongeBob Comics a few years back and did a great job! It was kind of a complicated mess and you made it super clear and readable! Thank you! 000
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 02/12/2024Good choice! For me it was probably some Beatles song. 010
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 02/12/2024I follow stuff that I want to see more of. I don’t expect that all of those accounts will follow me back, but if I don’t follow them I won’t see what they post. Mostly it’s artists whose work I like, and I’m ok if they don’t see my posts, as long as I get to see their’s. 010
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 02/12/2024I was just joking about the whole cranberry marmalade thing. Sounds gross, but to each their own! 000
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 01/12/2024You’ve really crossed the line now. You’ve been pushing it, buddy, but this is too far. I don’t need you getting on here and cramming your marmalade with cranberry sauce agenda DOWN OUR THROATS. YOU CAN GO STRAIGHT TO HELL SCALZI! 000
Jed Alexander @jedalexander.bsky.social · 30/11/2024Hello. Just figuring this thing out. Here’s an image from my recent book. 180
