Speaking of new works of art, my friend Amanda Koster is com­ing out with her first book next month.  By day, Amanda is a full-time assign­ment pho­tog­ra­pher. She ded­i­cates the rest of her time to social doc­u­men­tary (and cook­ing fab­u­lous meals). This book, made up of her pho­tographs and per­sonal jour­nal entries, describes how every­one use their cre­ative tal­ents to change the world. 

I love Amanda’s work — in fact, I have at least 7 of her pho­tos hang­ing in my house right now — more than any other pho­tog­ra­pher (includ­ing me!). 

Amanda’s book is avail­able for pre­sale at her publisher’s web site.  She’s also hav­ing a lec­ture & sign­ing on September 18.  Those who buy a ticket get a free book (or, if you pre­fer, you get a free ticket for buy­ing the book).  Either way, go here right now to buy one or the other.  I’ve already got my order in.
