Apology: Talking With Strangers delay

September 4th, 2009

Judy Dyble Talking With Strangers

I owe you all an apology for the big delay in the launch of my new “Talking Strangers” set of prints. I know that some of you have been patiently waiting for a while and asking about it, since I first announced it 2 months ago. I’m very sorry about it but still I cannot say when I will be able to launch, since at this point it doesn’t depend on me but on the record label’s distribution.

As I first announced in July, the new “Talking With Strangers” limited edition will comprise a set of 3 illustrations that have been featured in the inner sleeve booklet of Judy Dyble’s album. For those who didn’t heard about this yet, the album was released in the UK on August the 10th, but I don’t have a release date in the US. yet. This is a very special project in which legendary musicians from King Crimson, Pentangle and Fairport Convention collaborated.

My intention was to give away a few free promotional copies of the CD album with the first sales of the limited edition of signed prints but I’m still waiting for the promo CDs to be delivered and the truth is that still I haven’t even got to see a copy of the CD myself!

Brilliant Music’s manager, Jon Brilliant, first told me that my promo copies were sent on the 10th of June and ever since I’ve been waiting for a delivery date. If I had known they would take so long, then I would have waited longer to announce this promotion. So far, I can only say that by contract they should be delivered to me anytime soon.

Thanks you all for your patience and understanding.

Words from the readers...

Kooky Pets is a beautifully illustrated book, full of characters that will make you laugh and wonder about your own Kooky Pet. If I had children, I would buy a copy and share it with them every night. I don’t have children, so I can’t share it with them. But you know, reading through this reminds me how much fun it was to play with the Kooky Pets of my childhood. It brings me so much joy to read and look at, I just might have to buy a copy to share with myself every night!

I love everything about the book: the wonderful illustrations (obviously), the layout that compliments them so well, all those awesome black and white decorations, the fonts, the text itself, the handwritten notes surrounding every pet, the… everything.

This is a book for twilight, to read by the light from a jar of fireflies. It draws you into a fantastical part of our world that’s there if you just look for it hard enough. It’s fantastical creatures are brimming with personality and each one is looking for friendship. They say that each of us has our own Kooky Pet just waiting to find us.

Wendy Edsall-Kerwin

In his own unique way and with this unique and perceptive vision (mixed with a generous dollop of gentle humour), Koldo has created a book that is, at its core, about love, honesty, acceptance and a generosity of spirit. The delightful optimism of childhood is alive in these pages.
