In “Stoned in Melanchol”, Megan Doherty flips small town banality on its head by turning it into its own alternate universe that celebrates youth, subculture, and freedom. The University of Ulster graduate says she uses the series as a form of escapism for herself and her friends. In 2018, Setanta Books published a limited edition Rizla pack style book from the project.
