Party pin poll

on July 25, 2010

I’m making up some pins for the Set to Sea release party! I’m going to have a free pin for every book purchase, plus probably sell them in little multi-packs for those interested. I did up these little watercolor sketches, and I’ve got a few favorites, but I figured I’d throw it open to a vote! These would be fancy little 1-inch pins with metallic gold and the works. And all of these designs are totally un-final – I’ll be tweaking the color schemes, etc. So just concentrate on the design – which of these do you like best?

Set to Sea pg. 110

(Preorder the Set to Sea book)

A pretty positive review of Set to Sea over at Publisher’s Weekly:

“Presented almost like a Big Little Book for grownups, with one lovely panel per page in a small volume, the hero’s journey in this tale isn’t particularly unpredictable, but Weing’s mastery of both small details (the hero’s waxing and waning love affair with language) and sweeping vistas (from the glaciers to a steaming port city) gives it richness and emotion.”

I won’t be at the San Diego Comicon, but I think copies of the book will be. Please stop by the Fantagraphics booth, #1718.
