I can relate to a statement made on a Flight of the Conchords' (my fave comedy duo/band) website:
"Members of the band (Jemaine and Bret) have noticed that whenever they are doing things that could be reported on the website, they are too busy to update the website. In addition, whenever the band members have some spare time in which they could update the website, there is usually, as one member put it 'nothing going on'."
Yes, there is so much going on here I haven't had any time to post. Yet there's so much to post about, namely: the book launch party for Craft Inc.! I would like to invite each and every one of you to the party which will be hosted by the wonderful ladies of Rare Device.
When: Tuesday, October 2, 2007
Where: 111 Minna Street, San Francisco
Time: 6pm-9pm
As it says above, we'll be raffling off a TON of prizes. Literally, 2,000 pounds of Chronicle Books craft titles and goods donated by local indie businesses and the profilees featured in the book. Really nice stuff like an In Fiore body balm, a Lotta Jansdotter bag, fat quarters of Denyse Schmidt's new line "Katie Jump Rope", a gift certificate for Rare Device and so much more!
And the best prize of all (if you own an indie craft/design biz) is one month of free advertising space on design*sponge. I wish I could throw my own business card in the hat, but I gather it would look a wee bit suspicious if I won the prize.
So come to the party to buy a signed copy of the book and to meet me! Or if you already know me, then come to win a prize. Or if you don't care to win a prize, then come to see all the very nice-looking people that will be there. I've paid them handsomely to stand around looking pretty. Don't let my good money go to waste!
(If you're in LA: yes, I will be having a book party there, too, with Reform School in November. Details to come!)
