Books you should check out
Below is a list of books that I have reviewed on my blog. The link to the corresponding blog post can be found below each book’s cover. When you purchase a book through the amazon-link I get a small (but very welcome) referral fee. It won’t cost you any extra, though. Also, I’ve self-published some books, including A Creative Year that you can buy via Lulu as well as a downloadable book on mail art and DIY Postcard Ideas.
