I wrote a little thing on the Chronicle Books blog all about the writing of Woop Studio's lovely book, A Compendium of Collective Nouns. I make some confessions about why I'm no fun at parties.
Publisher’s Weekly gave a nice little shout out to A Compendium of Collective Nouns. I’m honored to have my text paired with Woop Studios’ lovely art. It’s the book to buy, people!
I wrote two books that come out this Fall. Today is pub-day for this one: a work-for-hire project for Chronicle Books and the graphic design studio Woop Studios. It’s a super-handsome book and I highly recommend that you go forth and buy the shit out of it.
A Compendium of Collective Nouns
I just got my advance copy of A Compendium of Collective Nouns, a book I wrote for Chronicle Books and Woop Studios.
The book is a beautiful hardcover collection of Woop Studio’s collective noun posters, interspersed with lots of me babbling away about etymologies and literary tidbits and historical anecdotes and general half-baked word nerd kind of stuff. So, if you’ve ever wanted the nonsense that comes out of my mouth to be accompanied by art from a world-famous design studio, this book is for you! Available for preorder from Chronicle Books.
