As the DNC Convention and July both disappear, my attention focuses on the launch of my new company, Spectacled Bear Publishing, scheduled for the first week of August. It’s been almost a year in development.
What you see here is the stylized logo of a bear wearing glasses and the tagline: Saving gentle reads from extinction. What you don’t see are all the people behind this project: the illustrator, the designer, the IT/marketing guru, my administrative assistant, and the adults and children who offered their comments and suggestions on the first book, Philip & Phoebe.
You don’t see the tremendous work Walsworth Publishing did on the book’s actual printing or how it will manage the fulfillment of orders around the country. And you definitely don’t see my husband Earl either, although his support has been both constant and encouraging.
But all these people are behind this little bear in its quest to offer gentle reads in today’s grizzly world. And be assured that ‘gentle’ does not mean ‘boring.’ Go to www.spectacledbear.com and sign up for the company’s newsletter in the space provided. When we launch, you’ll be among the first to see for yourself what collaboration accomplishes.
