Mucumber McGee and the Lunch Lady's Liver by Patrick Loehr

Patrick Loehr was at this year's Denver ComicFest. A really nice guy even asked about our Edible Raven T-shirts. My sister got a book of his illustrations and I got his children's book, Mucumber McGee and the Lunch Lady's Liver. I will confess I got it because of the back cover design with the upside down black umbrellas and the raven perched in the tree. The story is about Mucumber McGee arriving late for lunch and the only thing left is the mysterious lunch lady's liver dish. It's a very...

Thirteen O'Clock by James Stimson

I will confess I bought this one solely for the illustrations and the title of the book. My imagination ran wild with all the things that could take place during the Thirteen hour of the day. In this particular book, thirteen o'clock is a rhythmic time to play with words that are displayed in a very artful way surrounded by whimsy imagery.

Neil Gaiman on Hypothetical Library

Stumbled upon this on Facebook and Publisher's Weekly. The Hypothetical Library is a blog where imaginary book covers get designed for actual authors. This week they are featuring one of my favorite writers, Neil Gaiman, and his imaginary book, If You Read This Book The World Will End.
What a fun concept, my sister and I would excel at coming up with designing book covers for hypothetical books. Definitely one of those, wish we would have thought of that. Well actually in the Divine Library

Book Five of The Dresden Files: Death Masks by Jim Butcher

If the Shroud of Turin was stolen I think it is quite obvious on who you would call to get it back. That's right, Harry Dresden – Wizard. A representative from the Vatican, Father Vincent, contacts Dresden to help them locate the stolen Shroud of Turin, which they believe, has been taken to Chicago. Could this be related to the headless and mutilated corpses that he has been asked by the SI detectives to help identify? And who or should I say what is also after the Shroud and appears to...

Edible Raven Blog

Can't remember if I have mentioned or not about the Edible Raven Blog, part of the magazine project that my sister and I are working on. It is a quirky blog that posts cool things about and/or with Ravens on Wednesday's and then every Friday does a superstition post. It can be a fun couple minute diversion for the day and the eye-candy is fantastic as seen in the example below. If you have time, we would love for you to come and check it out.
