Beyond the Books

The published story is only one part of a fictional world.

The Hollow Archive also collects material that exists beyond the main narratives. These include lore, artwork, artifacts, dossiers, supplemental fiction, and records that explore the histories and worlds surrounding its fiction.

These extended materials are housed in The Restricted Archive, a dedicated repository for exploring The Hollow Archive beyond the published books.

The Chief Archivist

The Hollow Archive is independently written, created and curated by The Chief Archivist, the writer and artist behind its stories and fictional worlds.

Each creation begins with fiction and expands into illustration, worldbuilding and visual storytelling with the aim of producing an immersive experience.

New stories and materials are added to the Archive as they are developed and published.
