Bold black capital letters spell out "FIRST I DRINK THE COFFEE THEN I DO THE THINGS" across a clean, light gray background in a straightforward, centered composition. The typographic treatment is direct and unadorned, letting the witty declaration stand alone with plenty of breathing room around the text. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
