Midweek Miscellany

The Eyes Have It — An interview with gentleman book cover designer and advertising copywriter David Gee about his design for Jim Hanas’s e-book short story collection Why They Cried. You can find my interview with David here.

Writers on Process — Writers of every stripe talking about how they write (via Largehearted Boy).

In Their Own Words — A BBC archive of television and radio interviews with modern British novelists including Virginia Woolf, Daphne du Maurier, Anthony Burgess, J.G. Ballard,  and Muriel Spark. One could quibble about about selection of some of  contemporary novelists, but otherwise this is pretty amazing collection.

And speaking of archives…

Design is History is an expanding reference for graphic design history created by designer Dominic Flask.

And finally…

The only page of Jason’s silent and sadly aborted adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Black Cat.

e-book short story collection, Why They Cried

      Hey Jason: I think David is channeling his inner dadaist/surrealist right now… Did you see this recent cover?

  2. Gee must be at a scary point in his life… maybe we need to sit down and have a mediation between him and his dark side…
