About this project
For the past five years, we, Reynolds & Griffin (also known as the Jasons) have been carving and honing a specific style of book - a hybrid genre all our own. What we do is take visual art and poetry/prose and mesh them together seamlessly on the page. Technically, neither art form illustrates the other, nor do they battle for priority. Instead, we experiment more with artistic dialogue, and perspective. Blah, blah, blah. Simply put, we do cool stuff to tell our story. A madman's memoir, so to speak.
We've self published, and been published by a major house, Harper Collins Publishers. We hope to be published again, but in order to make that happen, we have to have the resources to make the work. Art supplies aren't cheap. Nor is studio rent. Some of you may be thinking, "Doesn't the publishing company pay for that?" We wish. But with your help, we think we could do what we've done twice before (really ten times, but twice that most folks know of) and create something special. Something that you all would dig. And something that the publishers would bite on as well.
So now, we are asking you to be apart of the collaboration. Many of you have supported us since we were in college. Some of you are fairly new to the Reynolds & Griffin team. Nonetheless, we are truly grateful for all of you. We want to keep doing this. We want to keep giving you pieces of who we are, in our own way. We just need a little help to get started again, but trust, it will be worth it and hopefully our track record shows that.
Goal(s)?
We set the goal at $1000. Cool thing is, if we hit $5000 we'll give everyone who donated, a digital download of our EP...yes, music. If we hit $10,000, we'll send ya'll a music video as well! Basically, the more we raise, the more projects we can do! Sweet deal.
