I hope that you too have been enjoying this glorious weather. I had a wonderful June and you can read about it here: https://emmacharleston.blogspot.com/2025/06/june-2025.html (July is going less good to far, with rain and Jessie in doggie hospital, but you can read about that next month…)

If you’d like to relive the glorious heatwave in musical form, I put together a sultry summer pool party mix which you can listen to here: https://www.mixcloud.com/emma-charleston/audient-july-2025-pool-party/

I have also just recently restocked my critically acclaimed (apparently?!) James Bond zine, so if you fancy treating yourself or a Bond-fan loved one, they’re available (along with other bits) on my Etsy, here: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/EmmaCharleston 

Finally, if you fancy a ‘long read’ about accessibility and graphic design, I wrote this piece over the last couple of months. Probably not to everyone’s interest, but nice to take a lil moment to plug the stuff I’ve been up to. https://gfsc.community/accessibility-complexity-and-contradictions-in-graphic-design-2/

Over the summer I tend to be time rich but cash poor, so if any of you find yourselves in London and fancy hanging out (doing cheap/free activities), let me know! Would be lovely to see you.
