I recently needed to order new business cards. I had a lot of fun playing on the Vista Print website. When I finished designing my professional card, I decided I needed a card to reflect my writer status. They were so cheap I couldn't resist. And it would be nice to have something that only lists my email address and my cell phone to give to people I meet at writing classes, etc.
How fun. Not limited by the perceptions of what a lawyer's business card should or should not look like. And a place to list my blog address instead of scribbling it out for people in my largely unreadable handwriting.
I chose a design that has a little graphic of birds on branches of a tree. I have many bird-themed objects on my desk, all a reminder of Anne Lamott's "Bird by Bird." The back side is a sage green.
They came yesterday. I'm just thrilled. The typeface is a bit smaller than would be ideal but I happily stuffed them in my wallet to distribute to --- well, I'm not sure. But my writing group meets tonight so I will be able to hand out at least eight of them.
