“Peculiar People and the Pets Who Love Them”…lovingly
written and illustrated by Justin Moroyan, is a darkly-whimsical and
addictively-humorous picture book that tells the stories of fantastically
weird people and their equally strange and adoring pets

These stories revolve around characters who are gloriously abnormal. They
embrace that attribute, and don’t shy away from being their unique,
spectacular selves. Like Madam Rosette and her poodle, Josette, who only
enjoy “bad” smells…or Samurai Megasaki, who is addicted to
water but also allergic to it. Each spread welcomes you into wondrous,
stunningly detailed, vibrant illustrations, and stories that are guaranteed
to capture your imagination and tickle your grey matter. Each time you
explore it, you’ll discover new secrets and symbolism that delve you deeper
into captivating worlds you will inexorably fall in love with.

About the Author

I’m an illustrator and writer, and I’ve always loved expressing myself on
paper…the ability to work within a space where I can make anything happen
has always been a form of therapy for me. It’s one of the reasons I love the
Fantasy and Sci-Fi genres so much.

“That’s the wonderful thing about crayons. They can take you to more
places than a starship.” (Guinan, Star Trek: The Next Generation)

I share an affinity for dark humor with some of my atypical real-life
superheroes, like Tim Burton, Charles Addams, Edward Gorey, and Wes
Anderson. Of course, I can’t leave out the wondrously enchanting worlds
created by Dr. Seuss and Disney, which fertilized my drive to invent worlds
of my very own growing up, and still, to this day.

I tend to gravitate towards humorous stories about social ineptitude, mad
science, the supernatural, and wonderfully addictive, perfectly imperfect,
B-movie-like humor and exaggerated characters. I love diving down the rabbit
hole of my mind and exploring strange new worlds.

“All we can do, Scully, is pull the thread and see what it
unravels.” (Fox Mulder, The X-Files) –This text refers to the
paperback edition.
