Introducing… The New Day!
Mighty Impressions for Strange Times.
I've always joked that my presses are my apocalypse plan. For the last 5 weeks, as we entered into this new reality of COVID, I've been unable to think about making work in the studio. Art has felt very distant from my life parenting, washing hands, and dealing with the fallout of having two shuttered businesses.
Now that I'm adapting to this situation as a long-term prospect, I want to put these 100-year old machines into service. I will create a letterpress-printed weekly broadsheet full of YOUR stories from this current time.
The catch: the stories have to be 10 words or less. What is happening in your community? Your home? What discoveries have you made? What are you reading or listening to? Workplace drama? Small joys? Funny things your kids said? 10-word Op-Eds you want to share?
Submit your stories here. I’ll review them every week and make selections for inclusion in the paper.
I’ll be mailing out copies of the paper every week*! Get your subscription NOW to help this project and to enjoy a letterpress-printed piece of mail every week with uplifting, funny, sad and engaging stories from your neighbors around the globe.
*I’m not sure how long I’ll be able to keep up a weekly schedule, but we’ll give it a try. What else am I doing right now, right?
