Has it been over a year since I posted here? I can’t believe it! I restart this blog stream with some happy — if rather tardy &mdash news.
I was honored to have my book Incantation, featured in the most recent issue of Letter Arts Review. It’s always a wonderful surprise to be included in this publication!
As I wrote in the description:
Incantation is a book of imaginary magic incantations, an ode to the power of letters, words, and books. What a miracle it is that we can put down marks on paper that will connect with readers across continents and centuries!
This book began as a melding of expressive mark-making and experimentation with layout. I was inspired by the amazingly varied and intricate layouts in ancient books with maps, charts, and commentary. Here I strove to invoke that sense of reaching for meaning as I try to make sense of marks I don’t understand.
