More "A Book About Death"

Production facility for "A Book About Death" postcard

I swear it was Karen who had the wine not me when she suggested

I include the short story that accompanies my "A Book About Death"

postcard. The moral is if you don't want criticism, don't show your

work. My prototype was all ready with a front and back; I just needed

to post it to the printers site. The back has an address to my blog where

the story is available. Karen in her infinite wisdom points out that you

can't just put your finger on the postcard and hyperlink your way

anywhere. I knew she was right; the image and story are two sides

of the coin, canvas and paint; both are equal and integral to the

project. While the story is short, it was still too long to print on

the card. I had the front and back shipped to me and I'm sitting

and glueing them on three sides and inserting a copy of the story.

Only 350 to go as Karen glides by with her riesling and says, "since

when have you ever listened to good advice?"

Before my postcards arrived I was continuing to rebuild the

last few files from my hard drive crash. I came across the

piece above. I'll keep that seemingly endless and addicting

game in mind as I finish up the cards this weekend. 349, 348,

347.....
