Here is a page from my new book zine diary journal sketchbook thing, coming out soon! I finally finished all 255 pages of it, and it will be up for sale on Lulu.com sometime at the end of the summer. I had one copy made so far, and it was so cool to see my little book as a tangible object rather than just a dream I've had! I just need to re-do the cover and a few pages here and there...I'm giving myself a lot of time to do that because I will be on vacation and then moving to my new place very soon. So hopefully it will be ready for more eyes other than my own at the end of the summer!

Here is my mini description of the project: "Armed with just a copy machine, scissors, glue, and her sketchbooks, artist Tessa McSorley takes you on a journey into her creative process by layering text and imagery to create a narrative that is both confessional and inspiring."

It was so much fun to make! There will definitely be many more self published books like this in my future. :)
