Mim, Rani - Pics up at  http://wcclibraries.wordpress.com/2011/04/19/little-big-stories-at-... and I'll be taking more pics personally for my REAL wall later this week. It looks amazing, and the library staff backed all the pieces to make them more eye-catching. Very impress

 

Rani, I'm currently following up with my guy at the library (That's Francis, Mim, you met him at the wedding) about the possibility of producing a book. It was something we discussed early on in the process, and we said that if we got enough pieces and the show was a success then we would think about putting them all into a book and printing a copy for the shelves of the library. 

 

i would say that we have enough pieces (170 and counting) and according to feedback from Francis the show has gone down very well, with people roaming the library shelves to look at all the pieces, so I think that gives us the go-ahead to make a book.

 

Send the piece anyway, as I have proposed that any book that is produced also includes pieces that arrive late and I may extend the call for some artists who were unable to make the show deadline. This will give us a very good book indeed I suspect.

Andy, I will have to post a picture BUT my "Little Big Story" was returned to me, damaged, mission failed! Not too happy, this is the 3rd or 4th I have had returned damaged, I think I need to find a post office that will be willing to hand stamp my stuff! Hope the show went well! Everyone's submissions looked great...I have just started reading Bryan Lee O’Malley's Scott Pilgrim series!

So was it terrific? Did lots of people come to see the show? I was imagining how it looked. Wish we could have been there.
