Thanks Jeff and Sarah! Thanks!

With this book project, I’ve really had no time at all to do or think of much else. So for the past two weeks, I’ve been eating, sleeping, working and whatever-elsing this book. Luckily, my good friends have helped me with it, otherwise, I wouldn’t have seen or talked to anyone at all.

Sarah did an amazing job with the covers and tshirts. The covers blew me away. I got white and black paper and I was totally convinced that I was going to hate the white ones. Sarah did them up and I am pretty sure white is my favorite. She was there for pretty much the entire process. Obviously, I couldn’t have done the covers without her, but the book as a whole wouldn’t have come together like it did without her. Hey, thanks!

Jeff was a delight and basically came up with the design for the books. He helped a whole hell of a lot with folding and collating and binding. The same thing is true for him. I couldn’t have done it with out him (god, that’s cliche).

Speaking of the books, I sold a couple today. It’s a slow start, but I usually don’t sell any here. I’m VERY crap at self-promotion, so I’m trying to get better at it, but we’ll see.

So thanks, Jeff and Sarah. And DJ too! He helped out with collating. Woo!

All but a few of the books are bound and finished. There are technically 13 copies that need to be put together. See, I accidentally didn’t buy enough paper for the covers. I’ll get that Saturday or something. I really want to put this behind me. It’s not that I’m unthrilled that we did the book. Not at all. I love the fucking thing. I’m just sick to death of it.

But I’m ecstatic that it’s basically over. I’ve even been writing some. I’ll post the four new ones soon. Not really sure of the direction I’m heading in with these, but it should be fun.

If this sort of thing is fun for you.

Is it?

Hm.
