Writing starts at thirty

Is writing only for adults? This infographics shows that the majority of the successful writers have produced a breakthrough book when they were 30+. I think it's the maturity and the confidence of who you are and what you want to communicate that influence your creativity at work.

Jacket + Bookmark Project Makes Books Look So Special

The idea is splendid and I love how it's executed. I assume it can be used mainly for some book ads and promotions but this can be a great inspiration for a home library or child's books.

 

No much effort is needed to print or even draw a custom made jackets and make a matching bookmark. Not to mention how fun, creative and thought provoking it can be. It's a great way (and nonconventional, read less boring!) to engage children into discussion about literature, books, the plot, book characters an so on... and at the same time improves their cognitive and manual skills. I'll definitely give it a try :)
