ONLY 24 HOURS TO GO and the response has been fantastic. I have already sent out the material requested, books, art and prints. THANKS EVERYONE for being involved. And still time for others to pledge online and receive my limited edition book in the mail. When all forty copies of the hardback are sold THERE ARE NO MORE!!

HERE'S THE LATEST! : THE BOOKS HAVE ARRIVED and I'm very pleased with the way they look!! Price quoted on the pic does not include postage.

I am known as both an artist and writer and have had three books published (one shortlisted for a national prize won by David Malouf and I have another new novel out later this year).

But this NOT a commercial book - it is an art project. Most artists, writers, musicians do so much for free. Well now, thanks to crowdfunding, friends can help out and get great value for money at the same time!

The book consists of 52 of my artworks & 52 fables, one story for each week of the year, each exactly 365 words long.  

Ian Syson of Vulgar Press said, "What a fabulous idea. I can see the book already. The blots look so skeletal and human. Wow!"

Here is a sample:

This is a LIMITED EDITION ARTISTS BOOK, designed, text and artwork entirely by me and illustrated throughout 20cm X 22cm. Here is a pic of the cover design:

There are only SIX books available as a sewn hardback in slipcase, signed and numbered, 40 hardback with dustcover signed and numbered and a limited number of softbacks.

It will cost between $6000 and $8000 to produce (printing and binding), so your help is greatly appreciated. THANKS!
