Coffin Bell TWO book trailer
I’m working on art and layout for Coffin Bell TWO, an anthology of dark literature. My friend and CB EIC Tamara asked if I could put together a book trailer. I had no idea how or what to do, so I said, “Let me try!” Behold! I actually really like how it turned out. It’s a love letter to art, writing, books, strangeness, and the vehicle that can pull all of those things together: graphic…

The Wolf’s Bane
I am so excited to see the finished product! Betsy crafted this incredible story and was kind enough to ask me to do the book’s layout. I adore her writing so I was happy to do whatever I could to be involved. Check out this mini documentary on the project as a whole. COMING 2015: The Wolf’s Bane from Emily Beard on Vimeo. I am super proud to be a part of this project and…

Any excuse to get humping gerbils on the blog
Here’s a little something I put together for the 12th and Broad crew’s inaugural magazine. It’s the subscription card — the lone one! so there aren’t a hundred of them falling out and annoying you! — that’s inserted into the magazine.

This thing I’m doing called Eyedot Creative
Have you checked out Eyedot Creative’s blog or Etsy shop lately? I’m designing up a storm. Ideating and celebrating. Taking custom orders left and right.

I had a blast (and worked really, really hard) at the Cooper-Young Festival and East Buntyn Art Walk back in Memphis before I left, and I…

Lighten up: News design, levity, and fighting the impulse to be So Serious
So, wonks and pedants, literalists and newshounds, hear my plea. Give your readers some moments of delight every now and again. And take some time to enjoy that delight yourself. I promise it will not kill you.

Let me get a little Charles Appley for a sec
The president visited Chattanooga the other day. Big story. Big, big story. My pal Nick designed the TFP’s front page for the event. Big page. Big, big page. And yet this is how the paper looked when it hit driveways. WHY? WHYYYY?

I did something I actually like!
I don’t post about specific stuff I do at work very often because … actually I’m not sure why. It ain’t modesty, I promise. I think I’m still just delusionally assuming that if I don’t post specifics about my work that no one at the new job (new? I’ve been there a year!) is going to find this corner of the internet and discover what a nutty broad I am. That’s crazy, I suppose, because…

In case there was any question…
I freaking love being a designer. I have to step back and remember that sometimes. Love it.
