“The bookmarks were created because I’d been too lazy to send Christmas cards, and was shamed into it by the beautiful cards I was sent, especially by illustrator friends,” Walsh wrote to BuzzFeed. “I chose to draw women writers inspired by a couple of (male) journalists I was in touch with on Twitter — Matt Jakubowski and Jonathan Gibbs — who'd noticed that, despite being book reviewers, they infrequently read books by women. I was impressed they were willing to make a (public) effort to read more widely.”
