IVP - Strangely Dim

A Likewise Limerick

This week IVP Books is gathering seventeen people to discuss the direction of our Likewise line, which I've posted on previously both here and at Loud Time. In case you don't like to link to stuff, Likewise is a line of books geared toward young adult discipleship. The logo is a farmer leading a donkey; the tagline is "Go and Do." You can see the logo here. I wrote a limerick to celebrate the line (so to speak):

There once was a donkey named Ferdinand
Who started a hurdy-gurdy band.
The band liked to swing,
But soon broke a string
When they strummed with their hooves--not fingery hands.

As you can see, I've named the donkey Ferdinand, and I certainly have my reasons, but you're welcome to offer up your own name for both the donkey and the farmer, whom I've named Tony. Anyway, I'm looking forward to a fun time with some interesting people over the next few days. I'll blog about it when it's all over.

Likewise: The Logo

As promised, here's the logo for Likewise, for you to deconstruct at your leisure. Try to keep the jokes clean. If you try but fail, that's OK; take it outside.

Trying Something Out

I've never tried to upload a file before, but today's the day. I tried to post a picture of me, my brother and my sister when we were wee, but the file was too darn big. So you'll have to settle for more shameless self-promotion. Speaking of self-promotion, the photo I wanted to upload is included in the book. Buy a farm, get all three--or something like that.
