1. Beyond the Stick Figure by Karin Taylor

 Beyond the Stick Figure by Karin Taylor

 

I'm still very blocked where my art is concerned. So when I saw that Karin had published a book about her experiences and her art, I leapt at the chance and bought it. It hasn't disappointed and has indeed been inspirational. Karin's a lovely person online and that's reflected in these gorgeous pages ... you really feel that she's sitting next to you, chatting in her friendly voice and telling you her story, full of encouragement and wonderful tips on how to get motivated.

I haven't had the time to read through the whole book yet, but am looking forward to sitting with cups of tea and mulling over every page. Here's a glimpse at what lies inside. If you click on the links you get to see more on her Blurb page:

Honestly, I don't get a cent from any clicks or sales, I'm just thrilled for her and love her book. So take a peek and decide for yourselves:

2. New York Center for Independent Publishing ‘On Hiatus’

The New York Center for Independent Publishing is currently “on hiatus” following interim director Leah Schnelbach‘s departure earlier this year.

The NYCIP was founded in 1984, providing services and organizing educational events for the independent press community. According to a Publishers Weekly article about the center, Karin Taylor had served as the organization’s director for two decades until 2009. NYCIP’s parent organization is the General Society of Mechanics and Tradesmen.

The article reported: “[T]he NYCIP Web site has been reduced to a small info page, and there has been no information from NYCIP on the future of the many programs, conferences, and publishing events it sponsors.”
