Typography for the haters, the skeptics, and the eye-rollers.
After 18 years of teaching typography, I know the hardest students are the ones who seem not to care, but secretly, they care the most.
That’s who I’m here for.
The book__I Hate Typography
I’m writing a book about typography for students who hate it__those who find it boring, complicated, or just another set of rules.
I believe I have something to say. And something to share.
But I’ve been circling around it for years.
Making notes, collecting ideas, scribbling fragments on paper, building a wall above my desk that holds the entire book. Messy, intuitive. Chaos in order.
__BUT NOW I’M READY.
Writing is a joy. Writing is an agony. It has given me clarity. It has made me doubt everything. It has opened things up and closed others down.
The book will be a mix of fiction and nonfiction. Not a guide to show you how to do things, but to tell you why. Classroom stories, personal questions, pieces of theory.
Exercises will be included for practice.
