@jamescookartwork was inspired to purchase his first typewriter back in 2014 and has never looked back since!
He has produced over 150 typewritten drawings (or typictions) and has amassed a collection of 35 typewriters - many of which are donated by fans and admirers from around the world!
Jamesâ background was in architecture so it made sense for him to start by drawing buildings. However, as his skills progressed, he expanded his repertoire to include a whole host of subjects; people, pets, skylines, even Christmas cards!
You can buy prints and originals of the artwork from Jamesâ website which is accessible through his Instagram page @jamescookartwork

As well as this, Tegan has an audience of just under 500k on TikTok - a platform she uses daily to raise awareness and educate people about her disability.
Something she does using her own unique, funny and often self-deprecating style!

Laurence Westgaph runs the Liverpool and Slavery history group.
It is a safe space for robust discussion of Liverpoolâs role in slavery and the slave trade.
Unfortunately, many history groups refuse to acknowledge discussion on this subject, or when they do, debate declines into abusive argument.
Laurence is using his platform and years of experience and research to share his knowledge and encourage respectful discourse.
You can join in with the discussion in the Facebook group - Liverpool and Slavery - which now has over 7.6K members.
