Tiny Stories Tiny 'Book' - SITC

We are going to make a small "book" of tiny stories to hand out at the Summer In The City shows coming up. It will just be a small pamphlet, sorta like the MMM Introdictionary Sarah and I and other illustrators made for our SxSW shows ( http://hitrecord.org/records/64206 ). I think it'd be great if each story filled a double-page spread, with the story handwritten on the left and an illustration on the right page. We'll probably have room for only about 10 stories in this small version (but it will be a good first draft for eventually making the real Big Book of Tiny Stories). Anyway, I thought it'd be great if we could start handwriting out some of the best tiny stories – if you have great or interesting handwriting please find your favorite story and write it out and scan it. Or you could also raid aszarkowski's typography collaboration and cut and paste other people's letters to write it out ( http://hitrecord.org/records/90377 ) And, although we already have many beautiful drawings from filmpunk's Big Book collab ( http://hitrecord.org/records/91748 ) and wirrow's original Tiny Stories collab ( http://hitrecord.org/records/56986 ), if you're an illustrator and you have a favorite Tiny Story that hasn't yet been drawn – feel free to submit that too. (oh, also, for the selection process it'd be great if people wanted to make albums of there favorite tiny stores that aren't audio or video... the ones that will work well in a small book) :)
