So I turned 25 a few weeks ago, and since then I've done a lot of reflecting. Mostly about whether or not to start Jonathan Stewart and sit Marion Barber on my fantasy football team (I did not) or whether to listen to Radiohead's "Kid A" or "Amnesiac" (both was my final decision), but reflecting nonetheless.
And in that reflectionary period, I realized that while I write for a living, I don't really do much
writing. Let me explain. Yes I sit on here once a day and spout off about
Miley Cyrus or
Patton Oswalt movies or
instant macaroni and cheese, and during the day I sit at a desk and write stories for a newspaper. But in terms of long-form, creative writing? Zilch.
So that's going to change. I started thinking about how I'm going to fix that, and instead of doing things like a.) opening Microsoft Word, or b.) turning off Monday Night Football, I thought about business cards.
Bingo. Everyone needs a sweet ass business card right? People will be lining up to read my stuff if I grease their palms with a sassy business card!
So here's the deal. I know a lot of you are creative, artistic, unemployed, and most likely a combination of those three. So create a business card for me! I'll have my favorite ones printed up, and I'll of course pimp whatever kind of business you may or may not have ON THIS VERY SITE.
A few tips:
-Okay one tip. Just incorporate my name somehow.
Note: I will probably not pay you. Maybe in hugs. Or an expired 2009 Entertainment Book.
Here are some awesome examples that Chris Hardwick (
@Nerdist) recently had his (millions of) followers create for him.
As you can see from the lead image, graphic design is not my forte. So go forth, minions, and do they bidding. Or completely ignore this post and wonder why I don't write stupid crap about
Sesame Street anymore.
(And yes, I realize how cheap this post makes me look.)
