While all of these brands are vastly different, they share at least one thing in common: a teeny little bit of Aaron James Draplin. Draplin is one of the new school of influential graphic designers who combine the power of design, social media, entrepreneurship, and DIY aesthetic to create a successful business and way of life. Pretty Much Everything is a mid-career survey of work, case studies, inspiration, road stories, lists, maps, how-tos, and advice. It includes examples of his work—posters, record covers, logos—and presents the process behind his design with projects like Field Notes and the “Things We Love” State Posters. Draplin also offers valuable advice and hilarious commentary that illustrates how much more goes into design than just what appears on the page. With Draplin’s humor and pointed observations on the contemporary design scene, Pretty Much Everything is the complete package.

Download or read book The 52 Week Project written by Lauren Keenan and published by Allen & Unwin. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was winter. Lauren Keenan was separated from her husband, lonely, and miserable. Then came the night of Twenty-Seven Rejections of Doom: she asked twenty-seven people to hang out one Friday night, and every single person said no. Lauren realised her life wasn't working for her and that she needed to change it. It was time to try something new. Fifty-two new things, in fact. She made a resolution: she'd try 52 new things in 52 weeks. From zip lining to entering a stand-up comedy night; swimming with sharks to detoxing from social media; giving up alcohol for six months to going to a music festival alone; Lauren put herself out there with surprising results. Her year of new experiences was a game changer. It repaired her relationship with her husband, she regained confidence in herself, and she realised how satisfying it can be to push yourself to your limits and to do things on your own. The 52 Week Project combines Lauren's insights and humour with current psychological research, as she brings readers along during her year of making the most out of life.

Back home, things become more complicated than she could ever have imagined. There's her sister's illness, her hostile brother, a smug ex she never wants to see again and her conflicted feelings about Alex in London - and a handsome American she meets in Glen Avich.

Book excerpt: A son is tasked with an impossible decision in this poignant, astutely observed portrait of a family in crisis from the author of The Ice Storm While visiting his mother, Billie, who suffers from a degenerative neurological disease that has left her paralyzed and unable to speak, Dexter “Hex” Raitliffe learns that his stepfather, Billie’s husband and caretaker, has left her. Alone and incapable of living on her own, Billie makes an unfathomable request of Hex: to assist her in committing suicide. Perpetually indecisive, paralyzed by self-doubt, and hindered by an unshakable stutter, Hex sets out to confront his stepfather, only to find himself facing off against his own struggles—with intimacy and alcoholism—along the way. Back in the suburbs of his youth, Hex experiences the lull of nostalgia as well as the sting of painful memories like his father’s death as he tries to reconcile his mother’s fate and his own wavering identity. Author Rick Moody evokes this singular setting with stunning clarity. Profoundly tragic yet punctuated by moments of hilarity, Purple America is a searing gaze into one family’s fragile, chaotic heart. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Rick Moody including rare images from the author’s personal collection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She's on the run. Protecting her could cost him everything. When Claire Montgomery wakes up in her mother’s ransacked shop with a bloody knife in hand and no memory of what happened, she does what she and her mother have always done: she runs. But this time, she’s on her own. With only a puzzling photo left behind by the intruder, Claire flees to Willow Creek in search of answers, seeking refuge with a stranger who once knew her mother. Time is running out for Special Investigator Alex Rowe to find the body that will keep a murderer behind bars. With the safety of his hometown at stake, he doesn’t have time to check up on the stranger his great aunt harbors, even if his gut tells him the mysterious but alluring Claire hides more than her real hair color. All Claire’s ever wanted is to settle down in one place, but growing comfortable anywhere has only ever ended in heartbreak. With Willow Creek charming Claire as much as the handsome, passionate Alex, is it too much to hope that she’s found a place and heart to call home? Heat level: Moderate/Steamy
Download or read book The Journal of Henry David Thoreau 1837 1861 written by Henry David Thoreau and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2011-11-16 with total page 707 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largest one-volume edition of Thoreau’s 25-year journal, with “some of the most vigorous and original prose in English” and insights into the origins of Walden and other works (Washington Post). Henry David Thoreau’s Journal was his life’s work: the daily practice of writing that accompanied his daily walks, the workshop where he developed his books and essays, and a project in its own right. This is one of the most intensive explorations ever made of the everyday environment, the revolving seasons, and the changing self. It is a treasure trove of some of the finest prose in English and, for those acquainted with it, its prismatic pages exercise a hypnotic fascination. Yet at roughly seven thousand pages, or two million words, it remains Thoreau’s least-known work. This reader’s edition, the largest one-volume edition of Thoreau’s Journal ever published, is the first to capture the scope, rhythms, and variety of the work as a whole. Ranging freely over the world at large, the Journal is no less devoted to the life within. As Thoreau says, “It is in vain to write on the seasons unless you have the seasons in you.” “ . . . a superb and uniquely accessible edition of an essential American masterpiece.” —Booklist
Download or read book Nine Till Three and Summers Free written by Mike Kent and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-01-04 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prequel to the well-received A Life At The Chalkface. Mike Kent’s new book Nine Till Three and Summers Free describes the extraordinary three years Mike spent as a resident student at a London training college in the sixties. Facilities were basic, many eccentric students seemed less than suited to the rigours of teaching, lecturers struggled to keep abreast of the enormous changes happening in primary education, and only a handful of GCEs were needed to gain a place. With humour and insight, the author describes the extraordinary events, situations and characters he encounters - the physics lecturer intent on taking his students to pieces, the field course run by an eccentric major, and the hilarious attempt at starting a college film society, the chaotic Freshers’ Hop and the viva examiner who had a passion for Guernsey. Amongst other students we also meet Dudley Hornpipe, a most unlikely candidate for teaching, David Barton, always willing to shave his hair off for a bet, and Simon Daines, who could probably have been a nuclear physicist, but chose teaching instead. Additionally, the book details Mike’s first teaching practice at a school in a socially deprived area of London, his affection and nostalgia for the children clear as he describes the school that set him on the path to a highly successful career in primary education.
