Handmade Design Workshop
This is a new book that was written by my dear friend, Carmen Sheldon, about using handmade elements in your digital design work. I added a couple of tips and designed and packaged it for her. It's my favorite book! Ask about having a workshop in handmade design elements!
The Non-Designer's Presentation Book
This is my other favorite new book of mine, about how to design presentations. I love presentations.
Mary Sidney
This is my site about the woman who I believe may have written the works
attributed to the man named William Shakespeare. The book is now available.
The Shakespeare Papers
My favorite project -- this combines my passion for design with my passion for the Shakespearean works.
Non-Designer’s Design Workshops
I don't teach these any more, but Barbara McNally is my protege and leads dynamic workshops. You/your company will love her.
The Understanders
I lead sixteen-week advanced discussions on Shakespearean plays, where we study one play for sixteen weeks. It's remarkable what we discover, and we have so much fun doing it!
Shakespeare at Sea!
For the second year, I'll be teaching about Shakespeare while cruising the Caribbean. Join me and the Smithsonian on a transatlantic in late May 2009!
