It Only Took 38 Times Longer Than I Expected đ€Ș
This year Iâve been posting three times per month â and hey, the schedule is working!
Hereâs your PICTURES dispatch. Look for SOUND (a podcast episode) on the 23rd and the next collection of WORDS on November 3rd, which should be a really interesting day. (Of course you will remember to vote.)
If I Kept a Bucket List, Iâd Be Checking This Off
Hey, guess what? I wrote a book! Itâs different than most books youâve seen, and the path was as squiggly as the doodles inside, but itâs finished. đ
Iâll show you bits of how this project came together (you know how I like pulling back the curtain on art-making). Basically, it was me pushing a cheap pen across page after page of drugstore card stock paper, day after day. (To see me in the act of doodling, go here.) Then changing my mind about what I wanted to say.
When I got the idea for a doodled book in January, I thought it would take me one week to finish - haha. But birthing it nine months later in Election Season is perfect because weâre all gonna need refuge from the news as well as inspiration for building a stronger future. My book gives you both! âš
If you want to jump straight to the shop and check it out, click here for the digital version and here for the physical coloring book-style version. (Which Iâll have in hand next week.)
Iâm so excited to share it with you!
I wrote this book to spread my love of doodling, but the more serious purpose is to show how doodling can be harnessed as a tool for gaining mental flexibility and self-knowledge. The book is whimsical, but also meaty. I think youâre gonna love it, and youâll surprise yourself with what you can do.
Two Different Formats + Introductory Pricing Through October
Digital copies of Doodle Your Way Out of Stuckness are available in my shop for immediate download. You can print yours out and start coloring and doodling tonight!
Iâm also taking orders for the beautiful soft-cover, coloring book-style version, which is being printed right now in Montana. I can have them out to you within two weeks.
Prices will go up November 1st, so grab your copy (plus one for a friend) and get ready for the political chaos. Weâll need all the creative mind support we can get!
Thanks for celebrating this book with me. đ„đđ
