At long last the paperback versions of Since You Asked and Citizens of the Dream are now available for purchase on Amazon.com. IPG (Independent Publishing Group) had perviously been distributing these titles, but we decided we’d prefer going it on our own. It’s great to be back in business again!

Both Since You Asked and Citizens of the Dream are collections of advice columns written by my husband, Cary Tennis. Since You Asked is a collection of readers’ favorite columns, while Citizens of the Dream is a collection of columns about living the creative life. And, of course, I designed both these books.

Here’s a brief description of Since You Asked:
In Since You Asked Cary Tennis, with the help of Salon.com’s 4.4 million monthly readers, has collected some of the most unforgettable letters and best answers from his Salon.com advice column.

Those who open Since You Asked at any page will be instantly caught up in an idiosyncratic modern problem. “Where does my boyfriend really live?” Or, “We’re married, but do we have to live together?” And the correspondent who confessed, “I forgot to tell my wife I have a twelve-year-old daughter.”

Cary responds to these problems at a deep level: the level of personal myth. In this way Since You Asked is a uniquely intimate book that explores the big questions of life thoughtfully and maybe provides a little peace. This is why one of his readers called him, “The Walt Whitman of advice columnists.”

I hope you get a chance to check these books out. I know I’m biased, but Cary truly is an amazing writer.

Citizens of the Dream is here! My husband, Cary Tennis, is the advice columnist for Salon.com and this is his third collection of columns. This book focuses of the special problems associated with the creative life.

Citizens of the Dream is the second book in a series, so I designed the cover to work as a companion to the first book. My goal was to create a new cover with the same feel as the first, with being a carbon copy.

For those not familiar with Cary’s columns, they are insightful, non-judgmental, compassionate, literary and entertaining. I hope you’ll enjoy his newest offering!
