Chuck's west coast tour for the upcoming INVISIBLE MONSTERS REMIX release is happening this July, but before all of that, St. Helen's Book Shop is kicking things off in style with a signing party. If you don't know, Chuck has a very special relationship with this local Portland bookstore. For every book release, he visits them and not only signs all of their inventory, but takes personally inscribed custom orders via their website. This is the only store that Chuck has this arrangement with.
For the main Invisible Monsters Remix tour, Chuck will unfortunately only be pre-signing copies of the new book. But this St. Helen's Book Shop event is the exception! Here are the details:
June 21
Portland, OR
St. Helen's Book Shop, 630p
Event is happening at the Bing Lounge

This is a reading and a signing with Chuck Palahniuk and Lidia Yuknavitch (The Chronology of Water). Drinks, food and mingling will abound! read more »

*See below for important date info.
The design is by Kevin Tong. It features Buster Casey traveling through time mid-car crash. The shirt color is Black. It's a Unisex American Apparel Tri-blend shirt. The fabric is very soft, very light and extremely comfortable.
Pre-Order a 'Rant' T-shirt before May 31st!
Important Sizing Info
This is a unisex shirt, so women may prefer to order one size smaller. See a size chart here.
Print / Design Info
The inks on this shirt are water based, which means you won't feel like you're wearing a giant decal on your chest. This also means that the design will 'heather' slightly, giving the shirt a slightly muted, vintage look.
Check out a high-rez close-up of the design.
*This pre-order closes on May 31st. Order before then to guarantee yourself a shirt. We will only be printing a limited quantity. Shirts will be sent to the printer on June 5th and turned around shortly thereafter. We expect to begin shipping out all orders starting on June 15.

Update: The item was auctioned and won for $4,351.00! Congrats to the new owner of the table and for the good thing they did to support for these animals.
I just got an e-mail from Chuck asking that I let everyone know that The Pixie Project animal shelter, in Portland OR, is auctioning the actual Yin-Yang coffee table from Fight Club. This is one of three tables that were used in the film. The other two were (obviously) destroyed. It was given to Chuck as a funny gift by David Fincher at the close of the film.
Bid on the table here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/290687911585 - Auction Ended
All proceeds go to funding The Pixie Project, and help rescue dogs.
This table has been in Chuck's office for the past 12 years and he's now ready to part with it for a worthy cause. Furthermore, if you live anywhere near the Portland area, there's a chance he'll come and help you set it up.

IMPORTANT: With all pre-orders sent off, we find ourselves with a small amount of overage. So all of you who missed out on getting an Invisible Monsters shirt have one more opportunity. But this is it. Once these are gone, this shirt will be no more. This is a limited run. Good luck all!
Order An Invisible Monsters Shirt!
Details about the shirt:
The design is by Kevin Tong. The color is Black Aqua. It's a Unisex shirt available in all sizes. The shirt itself is an American Apparel 50/50 Poly-cotton fabric, so it's very soft
Important sizing info: Women may prefer to order one size smaller, due to this being a Unisex shirt. See a size chart here.
Check out a high-rez close-up of the design.
UPDATE: Today, March 13th, I await a ring at my door telling me that UPS has arrived with about 400 Tshirts from Forward Printing. Till that happens, I can't begin packaging anything. In short, once the shirts arrive, they will begin packaging and shipping in the order that the pre-orders were received. This will continue for the next few days until all orders are out. I am doing all of this alone, so please have patience. If you placed a pre-order on an Invisible Monsters shirt, it will go in the mail by no later than Friday.
UPDATE: Pre-orders for this shirt are now closed. For all who ordered, congrats! If you missed out on an Invisible Monsters shirt, keep an eye on the site, as we may announce some overage soon. read more »
