What a weird day. First I hear from a tipster that someone was plagiarizing my work on Facebook. This written piece to be exact [link] . I messaged the owner of the page I got them to agree to take it down for now. They want to put it back up later and I that will be fine as long as they credit me. It's some sort of digital art studio and they were using my work as their artist statement basically. I'm not sure if I should feel mad or honored. Honored that someone felt something I did worthy of stealing, but more honored that some random person on the internet saw it, and recognized it as mine :0

But in other news....apparently the book I designed in 2011 for New Rivers Press has received a 2012 American Inhouse Design Award. Apparently there were over 4,000 entries and only 600 are awarded this honor. So that's exciting! I think I get a certificate of excellence or something. I really wish something I did could translate into money or a job, but for now I'll take what I can get. You can find the book here: [link] If you're into anything about China's revolution through the 40s and 50s I would recommend it.
