NYC
Today is the worst day on this trip so far. I dropped my book off at Nylon this am, had a little bit of time to myself to visit a few galleries and what not, was feeling pretty good. After lunch, I ran up to Conde Nast to pick up a book I had dropped off there, only to find that my book has been shipped back to LA. Sans book, I had to cancel my meeting with an Ad Agency and run back down to Nylon to get the one I had dropped off this am. I have more meetings tomorrow and the next day and since I only came out with 2 books, and am now down 1, I thought it would be best to pick it back up, since now I am paranoid that it would get shipped back too! Of course, they have not looked at the book yet, so “Hope” (yes, I actually named my portfolios) came back untouched while its sister “Faith” is in transit back to LA.
Entirely waste of a day!
However, I did stop by Printed Matters and took a look at my friend Valerie Phillips new book, I can’t believe a girl is playing Metallica and its BRILLIANT!
