WANT YOU TO KNOW ~ BOB MARLEY

Don’t want you…to move

ARE YOU A BOOK DESIGNER?

 
Kindly hear this.
"Don't judge a book by its cover."
Poppycock.
This may be one of the falsest things every uttered.
How many times have you not cracked open a book because the cover was terrible?
...
The book cover matters a lot.
It is the first thing we see.
Book design is the art of incorporating the content, style, format, design, and sequence of the various
components of a book into a coherent whole.
It is not rocket science
It is art.
 
 

PORTRAIT OF A LEGEND

http://www.mediauk.com/newspapers/discussions/print-chatter/portrait-of-a-legend-and-other-folks

I am a Jamaican photojournalist who will be publishing the book, Portrait of a Legend and other Folks, in August.
The book will contain unpublished photographs I took whilst on tour with reggae Legend Bob Marley in 1980 and will also have an introduction by Nana Rita Marley.
I will be travelling to Jamaica early in February to brief the Minister of Tourism about this project and to finalise negotiations concerning the book launch which it is hoped will be held at the Jamaican High Commission in London on August 3rd.
This year Jamaica is celebrating 50 years of independence and Portrait of a Legend and other Folks will be an added boost to this celebration.
I am now seeking offers from positive Jamaicans who will help fund the launch party.
