New Books Coming Out

December 21st, 2009

Ladybug_Laws_Sketch1We have just about finished K. Silem Mohammad’s Sonnagrams 1-20. Had some printing issues that held things up then teaching and end of semester blues. Books will be shipping before Xmas. The other big news is that Laura Moriarty’s book looks to be done before Xmas too. Here are a couple design sketches as a teaser on that. More pics when things progress. And yes they are in a blue book started while I proctored an exam. More later today when I update the site this evening. Now it’s back to grading for me while Lisa continues work on her Voices of the Zombie Apocalypse. The fun just keeps rolling along.Ladybug_Laws_Sketch2

The Big Move

September 2nd, 2009

The big news right now is that we have moved our studio from Oxford, OH to Cincinnati, OH, about 40 miles away. We have taken up residence in a 19th Century Brewery-cum-IceCream Factory. Cool huh!

Getting the big Chandler and Price Letterpress out of the shipping container that it had been living in for the past year or so and up onto the loading dock was a bit sketchy, envolving a somewhat dilapidated forklift with bald tires, a logging chain, one broken locking D-ring (spectacular), a sheet of 1/4 inch steel plate, two ratcheting straps, some lumber, and at least ten Hail Marys. But it and the rest of the print shop is now ensconced in the front half of the studio, and we are slowing getting things organized for production again.
