The Main Line Tattoo family is made up of Jennifer Edge, Seth Jordan, Aniel Fernandez, Brittany Lafaille, Julia Burns Coates, Morgan Diann, and #askkatie. This show is full of moving parts, with each person donating their time and love to make it happen. We couldn’t bring all the magic to you without them!

A long time ago, in a tattoo shop far far away, Jennifer Edge had a brilliant idea—to bring her love of books and tattoos together in one space. In 2018, the first-ever book-themed tattoo convention came to Chattanooga, TN, featuring 84 talented Tattoo Wizards and 15 vendors. Not only has the show grown over the years, but so has the amazing cast of characters behind it!

If you’ve ever seen this hashtag, you’ve witnessed Katie’s work! As the manager of Main Line Tattoo for the past seven years, she’s also the wrangler of the Literary Ink universe. She joined the shop just two months before the first-ever Literary Ink event, making her one of the OGs. From managing emails to ensuring everything arrives on time and in place, Katie does it all.

Tattoo Wizard at Main Line and graphic designer extraordinaire for Literary Ink! Whether it's web design or handing out medals at the show, you can’t miss Brittany. She’s been with Main Line for two years, seamlessly sliding into all things digital to keep the Literary Ink magic alive.

The voice from the stage! Julia makes sure you know who's booking and keeps you updated on all the fun shenanigans happening throughout the show. She’s been with Main Line for four years and made her Literary Ink debut when we returned in 2023. Not only does she show up as a literary character each day, but she also closes out the weekend with a special performance at the after-party!

Our head judge! With over 25 years of tattooing experience, Seth has made his mark all over the industry. He joined Main Line three years ago and dove headfirst into both the shop and Literary Ink. While he wears many hats, his most important role is serving as our head judge at the show!

When working with a bunch of creatives, you need someone who can wrangle all the ideas and make sure every box is checked. That’s where Sarah came in! She joined us as a super volunteer for the 2024 show, and we quickly asked her to become part of the family to help us navigate our next big adventure.

New to the team but not to Main Line, Shannon is our sponsorship leader and an honorary member of the shop. She’s spent so much time with us that we can’t imagine the crew without her! Always with a smile, Shannon brings sunshine to every room and makes sure your sponsorship package is handled with the utmost care.
