Hey Kids, Just found this post on the Magcloud blog. As you know, I’ve been using Magcloud for many years and find it the perfect niche tool of my creative life. I typically stick to the magazine, digest and 8×8 …
Creative: Green Man Taught Me To Walk
When I first saw this book I asked the author “Who published that?” He looked at me a little funny and said “Blurb.” Oh. Oops. It’s not like I’ve been lurking around Blurb for TEN YEARS at this point. The …
Creative: Travel Journal
The driver was high. Very high. The back door of the cab wouldn’t open, and when I asked about sitting in the front the driver said the passenger seat was covered in coffee ice cream. It was 5:30AM. The airport …
Creative: Blurb Tips 0008 Typography
Yet another tip in a long line of Blurb tips. Bookmaking is an art form that takes practice, study, skill and desire. But, you have to start somewhere and making mistakes is where the fun really begins. Today we talk …
Creative: just make pictures
Yes I’ve posted about this before, but I’m going to keep posting about it because “just make pictures” is one of my favorite publications. This publication is the child of Michael Jarecki. Let me say this. This publication works because …
Read: 109 East Palace
In “The 505” this book has major street cred. I’d heard about it for years, but finally realized, as I was driving to go launch a mountain bike ride, that I was driving by some of the EXACT locations described …

I can’t believe this magazine exists. If I was going to design a magazine to show to potential Blurb users I would attempt to design something EXACTLY like Peter Morley’s “To Make a Difference be the Difference,” only my design …
Creative: Serif & Silver
One more for luck! Thanks to Nate for sending me this baby. I’ve posted about Serif & Silver before, and I probably will again. A serial publication, like magazine, is within reach for SO many people but SO few actually …
Creative: The Leica File 20
Okay, I’m back. It’s back. The Leica File. You asked for it. I’m making good on my promise. The truth. Haven’t used the Leica in ages. Haven’t used ANYTHING in ages, except for the x100T, but that’s just for work …
Yoga: Location, Location, Location
Anywhere you do yoga is great. Fine. Just fine. But location can add to the experience. Now, where I live the yoga schools are packed with uber Newport women who eat little and yoga lots. They are impressive, and on …
Adventure: Bianchi Coastal
Back from the New Mexico mountains. Sea level. Everything is easy. Up early, just spinning. Ticking of the k’s. Or miles or whatever unit of measurement you prefer. Alone on the road. Back Bay to Shady to Laguna Canyon. Stop …
