Professional/social goal: attend a type conference in person next year.

The cool thing about returning to a part of the design space you haven't looked at in awhile is that sometimes you find you've drawn more of the light weight than you remember.

*Makes a small amount of money* *Immediately goes to eBay to look for type specimens and lettering books*

One week to go until #Ezhishin! The first-ever Native North American Typography conference. Featuring Kevin King, Tulsey Type, JamraPatel, Letterform Archive, Jessica Moore Harjo, Tiro Typeworks, Brian Skeet, People’s Graphic Design Archive,Bobby Joe Smith III, and many more. 🟣 typedrivesculture.com/ezhishin/

Drawing punctuation because I have to, NOT because I want to.

Just gave myself a thumbs up and said, "Great work, team." Important to foster a supportive work environment.

Always finding reasons to add extra characters to in-progress fonts, because then I can use them in that presentation I'm supposed to be finishing up.

Sure feels like Twitter is imploding, and just as I was building up a nice pile of tweets! Anyway, I have the same username on every platform: Instagram, typo.social (Mastodon), Substack. Find me those places, and also here, as long as it lasts!

It’s been fun, Twitter! See you on the other side (Instagram and typo.social, I guess)!

I did a review on Ezhinshin promoted by Type Directors Club on typography for Native North American languages, here you can see the reviews of Tiro Typeworks Tulsey Type Bobby Joe Smith III Jessica Moore Harjo Kevin King and Others. Take a look at Alphabettes blog: alphabettes.org/ezhishin-una-i…

Tulsa streets after any ice or snow storm...it's like driving on the surface of the moon.

WE MADE IT! Thanks to the generosity of 48 fantastic community members, we successfully funded our first crowdfunding attempt to support indigenous writing scripts. Tulsey Type is already deep in the work on a series of Cherokee fonts and documentation articles. Thank you 🙏

I'm very excited to speak tomorrow about our new book on the Indigenous languages of North America, and our new and ongoing research with communities and local designers. Join the Typotheque Club and attend the event for free!
