They Take the Words Right Out of My Mouth

Sometimes I get really tired of being the go-to gal for any kind of creative writing. Need a poem for your second cousin's daughter's fifth grade graduation? An apologetic letter to overbearing in-laws? A newsletter for the softball team? I'm the one who gets the call.

So when I found Story People, I felt like I'd happened upon my own personal nirvana.

The staff of artistic types at Story People combine stunning prose (browse the extensive list of options here) with whimsical colors-not-found-in-nature illustrations, transforming everyday emotions and situations into extraordinary real artwork. It's like giving a greeting card times a million.

The print we own spurs conversations and smiles, and is as at home in a newborn's nursery as in my formal dining room.

To me these pieces are all heirlooms in the making, and at $30 for an unframed print, they are priced for real people - real people who don't always have the time (let alone ability) to conceive, write, illustrate, color, and print the sentiments on their minds.   - ASN

A girlfriend gave me one of these for my baby shower. It has been a cherished gift. Brian's work is so inspiring. When you visit the site you'll see that you can send FREE e-cards. SO FUN!
I used on of his quotes in Baby of Mine!

So glad you're sharing Storypeople with everyone.
