As you may have heard, I’ve got a couple of books coming out this November (full information below), and if you order The 2021 New Book Package directly from me (again, info below), you’ll not only get:

an exclusive pdf booklet about the making-of,
you’ll also get these bookmarks, authenticated by myself.
