The Best "Book" You’ll Never Read (But Will Use Every Day)
For years, I’ve had this quirky idea for a side project kicking around in my head. I kept waiting for the "right time" or the "perfect moment." Well, the stars finally aligned, and I am so excited to announce that I’ve finally brought it to life.
Introducing: The Not-Books Project.
My goal was simple: Create something that brings a genuine laugh to the daily grind.
What are they? On the outside, they look like hilarious, satirical bestsellers. On the inside? 160 pages of high-quality, blank lined paper. 100% Satire. 0% Reading required. 100% Usable.
While this started as a passion project for me, I realized they are actually the perfect solution for some very real office needs:
👔 For HR & Employee Appreciation: Forget the generic branded water bottles. These are gifts that show personality, prove your company has a sense of humor, and actually get used during meetings.
🎁 For Office Gag Gifts & Secret Santa: Walking into a boardroom holding a book titled "Managing a Company of Ghosts" or "Dodging Customer Calls" is the ultimate icebreaker. It’s the gift that everyone in the office will want to steal.
🎟️ For Conventions & Swag Bags: Want your booth to be the one everyone remembers? People might lose a pen, but they will definitely show off a notebook titled "The Fear of Emptiness: A Designer's Guide."
I’m incredibly proud to see this idea turn into reality, and I’d be honored if you took a look (and hopefully got a laugh out of it).
