Troy Palmer – Designer

The Bare It For Books calendar will be designed and produced by the super-talented Troy Palmer. Troy is the founding editor and creative director of Little Fiction. When he’s not editing, art directing or reading submissions, he can be found writing, walking too fast or thinking there’s more he needs to be doing, usually with headphones on. He currently lives and rarely sleeps in Toronto.
