Limiteds – Series 3: CHAOS

CHAOS

Limited release of 12 handcrafted single pocket notebooks, but for this series you can choose your cover art!  

— ✳︎ —

At Notegeist Bindery Central, I asked my committees — the Ministry of Awesome Covers, the Department of Fine Finishing, and the ever-haughty Coalition of All Things Innards — to come up with suggestions for a quick December Limiteds release. As they scurried off eager to ponder and scheme, I knew they'd come up something interesting.

     I gave them 24 hours to ideate, then showed up at their final midnight meeting, expecting to hear one or two suggestions from my austere committees. To my surprise, they argued about everything and couldn't agree on anything!

     So in a fit of desperation, I said "We're out of time, so let's do all your suggestions!"

     And thus, aptly named, Chaos ensued.

"Expect the unexpected, and beware the staple day."
