So I have finally gotten around to producing the book I had blogged about before, you know the one that is a conversation between two versions of myself across the gulf of time. I am getting pretty excited about it now that I am working on it, but I am having trouble coming up with a good way to present the material.
I thought in good crowd source/open source/lazy web fashion I would post a PDF of a couple of pages of the book in the latest layout I have come up with, and get some feedback. Here is an abstract of the layout (Blue is for the original post, yellow for the response from me today):
Go grab the PDF and let me know what you think!

Chris, I love the idea of this, and I think they layout works well for it. While I’m not sure how wide the appeal of such a book would be, (I’d read it, but I’m already blurring the line between fanboi and stalker.) I think the process of creating it would be amazing for you and would be something that Jakob would someday treasure. Also, any excuse to get you to put more of you drawing and painting out there is good in my book.

Morydd,
Yeah this is definitely something that I want to do for myself. I will offer it for sale as a PDF and a printed book, but this is really something I want for my shelf.
Thanks for the input man.

… grabed the .pdf, reading it now. This is a very creative idea, and good for self-reflection too!

Cool idea man. Very cool.
Love the new UI on the site too - great job!
