I’m now officially OLD, having received the Eisner Awards’ Hall of Fame award last year. We passed some milestones in the last couple of years.

We’ll see! Not counting any eggs before they’re hatched, but you never know… New for this month: We’re happy to announce a gorgeous new edition of my 2015 graphic novel The Sculptor (speaking of five hundred page books that took years).Īs of this writing, there’s still a chance that it will be a movie, by the way. Swing by the presentations page for more info. Nevertheless, I’ve continued to do my lectures and workshops, albeit virtually in some cases. I still haven’t gotten Covid as of this writing-fingers crossed!-but the pandemic at large did keep us home for big stretches of 2020-2022. Oh, and I’m also working on a big secret project we hope to announce in the coming months! It’s a preposterously ambitious full color project covering the evolution and biology of vision principles of visual perception demonstrations of how visual elements behave in the mind’s eye best practices for clarity, explanation, and effective rhetoric and some personal reflections on our family’s experiences with blindness. The book has taken me years so far, but I sincerely believe it’ll be worth it. The second draft of my (neurotically-tight) layouts ran 571 pages, and I’m determined, as I plow through my third-and hopefully final-draft, to make it substantially shorter and less rambling. I’m still working feverishly on my massive book about visual communication. Yeah, yeah, nobody reads site blogs anymore, but I have a lot to talk about-more than can fit in a tweet-and this seemed as good a place as any to put it all into words…
