We’re super excited to be working with friend and creative accomplice Renee Fernandez on the next Crummy House zine. We’ve gotten to hang around and draw with Renee a handful of times before, but we’re way excited to be working on some art pieces together. We’re gonna try our best to get this zine out on time. Fingers crossed.
Are you starting to see a theme at Crummy House? We’re a little behind with our updates. Jess is in finals in school. I’m overloaded in general with my ADD brain starting projects left and right, with little progress on all grounds. We’re still majorly pumped up to be working with Jay Geurink on this month’s collaboration. As we catch our breath and figure out what we’re gonna do, stay tuned because this zine’s gonna need your help.

It’s a slow going over here at the Crummy House. We’ve been a bit behind on updates, mainly because the Texas heat is roasting our little brains and the sweat is making it hard to type this update, but we are way proud to announce our next collaboration with Mr. Paul Windle. We talked a bit about Paul before, but the dude just moved up to the Big Apple and we’re gonna work with him on a zine about overheard conversations. This should be a great book, so stay tuned.
Cruise on over to Paul’s site to check out some more of his work.
This is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RAAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDDDDDDD! Fellow M + J consonant enthusiasts and CRUMMY # 5 participants Matt and Jess of Museums Press are opening a Good Press, working space, gallery, bookshop and small cafe for individuals and groups to showcase their projects in Glasgow. What a dream, I say. In the mean time, they plan to open a series of temporary exhibition spaces in unused shops across Glasgow to raise funds and awareness of the project; so they need some cash! They are only trying to reach 1000 Euro. You can pledge some doh over at Sponsume, the UK version of Kickstarter. These are super creative, and good people that promote creatives from all over. They totally deserve the backing, if you got it.
And just as we finally roll out Martin’s book, we are supremely pleased to announce a Crummy collaboration with Miss Abi Daniel. A true jack of all trades, kind, and funny lady. Abi is a skilled craftsman in wood, watercolor and pencil, just to name a few, and boasts a fine collection of found objects. Recently, Abi traveled up to Book Court in the good old northeast to attend the launch party for Avery Anthology’s bi-annual short story publication, for which she was chosen to illustrate the seventh book . Read more about her contribution here, & of course take some time to browse Abi’s intricate, and beautiful work on her own site.
Headed off to Abi’s creation station to play with objects and end up with some art tonight. Totally stoked
Bet you thought this was the next zine release! We are a little behind on our schedule, but we are back to work today on our release from Martin Svoboda.
For now, enjoy these images from Paul Windle‘s newest zine release, Mid-70’s Baseball Dudes. We’ve been talking with Mr. Windle about a zine in the near future. Hopefully, we play our cards right and get to work with this talented artist before he’s all booked up. No puns intended. Nyuk, nyuk.
Stay tuned, we’ve got a great book to show you in the coming day or so and a new artist to announce for our June collaboration. We’re bringing the party back home, folks, with an artist right here in Austin.
Slowly but surely, we are moving forward with our collaboration this month. We’re finally coming to grips with the time you must dedicate to a self-publishing project. It always takes more time than you think, but it is fun and we like to have fun. Here’s a little sneak peak of what you can expect in the next Crummy zine. For now, go tell a friend about Crummy House and have a good Friday!
