Paris Lettering is my birthday pressie to self

I learned recently that people are going back to paper books. They tried the ebook, loved it, then somewhere along the line, reading an ebook felt like scrolling through a Facebook feed, while reading a paper book felt like an escape from all that. This pleases me because my paper book, A Paris Year, is infinitely cooler in print. I feel it came out during an e-craze, and now it's finding its groove as a tactile paper handful of joy.Thanks USA Today.In the book, I chose to make my birthday, December 27th, about my favourite thing in Paris: Neon signs and lettering. So much glorious eye candy.I can't get enough of pretty signage. The obsession began when I lived in California. All that Route 66 signage meant many trips to neon sign hot spots like Barstow and Salton Sea. But Paris, ah Paris, is condensed metropolis of pretty signs...Fourth, I'm going for a walk. It's my birthday and I'll walk if I want to. Christophe has given me the gift of hanging out with Amélie so I can go outside and sing happy birthday to self.A Paris Year is available at these fine retailers.
