Squid and Owl

My most ambitious graphic design project to date, Squid and Owl is being serialized weekdays as a Flickr set. I'm planning to have the book out by X-Mas. Check back for a buy link by November. I'm still sorta hoping some conventional publisher will swoop in and make a reasonable offer. Could that be you, dear reader? Otherwise: vanity, vanity, all is vanity. Ergo, there's nothing really wrong with self-publishing.

In the meantime, I've set up a nice Squid and Owl section in my CafePress store, Rhinobird. You can buy a Change mug. Or t-shirt.

I found this on flickr recently - I really love it! I hope you find a publisher because I want to buy a copy!

Thanks very much for the kind words. I'm planning to self-publish it by X-Mas. So you should be able to buy a copy soon.

Rhinobird

  • Rhinobird is my store on CafePress. It's also - perhaps confusingly - my Lulu store. Basically, I make stuff and put it up for sale and call it Rhinobird. (The logo was designed by Zoë Holbo, when she was 4 years old. I have her permission to use it. On CafePress you will find my Haeckel stuff and Squid&Owl stuff (for the time being.) On Lulu, I've put up a few fun old titles that I polished up, made all typographically nice, and made nice covers for. You can download all the PDF's for free, so go ahead and check it out. (I'm planning to clean up those editions a bit in the near future, and add some more.)
