The publisher of our first two books has notified us that due to a certain situation they found themselves in (uh huh) they will no longer be printing many of their popular books including our two books with them, Visual Chronicles and Journal Revolution. Current copies of the books still for sale in stores and online will not spontaneously combust so go ahead and buy them while you can. I am seeing what we can do about getting some books to sell through our site. We will also be checking out other options such as PDF versions of projects, downloadable versions of the books and, well, just other options for these two books.
In the mean time, amazon still has Visual Chronicles here and Journal Revolution here. Also, if you want either book and can't find it, please let us know so we know how many to order if we can get some.







I'm blogging about this!!

Hey guys! This happened to my mom. So she got the rights to her book back and self-published and printed it. And know what happened after she sold 15,000 copies on her own? The publishers started talking to her again. Go figure!
Its worth looking into.

I got the rights to my book back. Try that. Then if you want you can self publish and sell them youself. I never went that route but do have the right if I want.

Yours were the books that got me started. One of my readers who knew I liked to stamp cards thought I should take things to another level and sent me a copy of Visual Chronicles while I was living in Belgium. That and Journal Revolution changed everything for me. I regularly check out the art journal offerings in book stores and while I've read other books, I've never read any I thought were better than yours.
I'm so sorry to hear about this, but I have faith the power of the Goldbergs to Triumph Over All.

Oh this completely stinks (trying to keep it clean)!!! I'm so sorry to hear this. I have both books and know how liberating they were.... I hope this doesn't discourage you but gets you both fired up and your creative juices going to figure out how to get the message out and the books out to those that need them! If you need anything just holler!!

I would love both books Linda.
LMK how to go about it.

Nooooo! Say it ain't so! Out of all the books in my ever growing art library, these two are my most favorite and have done more for making me more creative than any others...hands down. Thankfully I already have mine but this really blows!
Peace & Love,

So so happy that I have had my copies from the get go (and autographed, no less-lucky me) :-)
New book-new publisher...move on...

When one door closes another one opens. Look for that other door. I'm sure you'll find it. It's the one you're going to bang into. :)
