I'm pleased to announce that Hello World! has been published and released to market by Manning Publications. I did the illustrations, which included character designs, coming up with most of the jokes and visual humour, and colouring. The print version is in black and white, the PDF version, is in a spot colour (wich means it uses varying shades of the same colour. In this instance Blue).

*UPDATE: Hello World! has a BLOG associated with the book. There you will be able to find out additional information and insights about the book.

Immediately Available For A Publishing Project - How About Yours?

Seeing as this project has been completed, I'm now looking for other Publishing oriented, or creative services projects. Illustration, comics, layout, design, content development or consulting. Give me (Martin) a call at 613-818-5365.

iHorace media is passionate about publishing…

…be that publishing for print or the web.

Publishing to me means: creating graphics, layouts, design, website structure, research, writing, editing, illustration, or anything that's needed to get the point across. There's a lot that goes into the final output of a product, and that final output is what I call publishing.

If you're looking for a BOOK, I can do the layout, illustrations, editorial or even write it (if so desired). Once that's all done, I can then help you take it to print - or direct you where you need to go, to of course, get published!

If you already have everything written, and illustrated, I can package that book for final output.

If you're looking for a WEBSITE or WEB-WORK I can help you design your site, collect your content, write or correct content, do the layout, structure, (X)HTML and CSS, a little bit of semantic code, and some snappy graphics. I can also help with research determining how best to make your content work so you can publish to the web!

Or you might want a poster, a business card, a logo, a brochure, CD covers, DVD covers, illustrations. I can also help generate creative ideas should you ever be stuck.

I look forward to working with you to help you publish your content if you're a Publisher, an Independent, a Government Office, a Corporation, or even a Missionary.
