I wanted to tell you about something that is going on in the publishing world, and that is that

Forrest Middleton's book, handmade tile, which is design, create, and install custom tiles has now been released.

I'm super excited. I am holding the book in my hand. Here it is. Listen to this.

Pages flipping. What? Yes, I have a copy. I'm so excited. And check this out. My name's

What?

Now, he is the master.

And I'm so excited about this book.

This book really does have everything that I think I need to know about ceramics.
