Going Somewhere Soon
Updated in June, 2004 with a Pumpkin colored cover. This is the third book,
completed on Valentine's Day, 1995. While the first two books were done in
Berkeley, this book was done in Iowa , where the artist
moved with his family after 16 years in Los
Angeles and San Francisco. One of his collectors has said that his stories
make perfect sense for someone who's lived in Hollywood, Silicon Valley and
Iowa, so maybe this third book is about coming home. This book carries some
of the most resonant stories including "Butterflies" and "Chihuahua".

Mostly True
Updated in October, 2005 with a bright red cover. This is
the first book of the trilogy, filled with quirky stories and drawings. This
book was transferred directly from the first StoryPeople sculptures at the
request of a fanatical group of San Francisco Bay area collectors. It includes
some of the best known stories, including "Flying Woman" and "Believing My
Father". Our galleries recommend this book as the starter (if you're forced to
restrain yourself to just one...) It is printed on archival 70 lb. text paper,
so it handles almost any abuse. $14.95 |
|
Strange Dreams
Updated in October, 2005, with an
azure blue cover. The fourth book of the trilogy, Strange Dreams, appears to
have been completed on the artist's birthday in September, 1996, but that's
only because you can do what you'd like with time when you're printing books
yourself. $14.95 |

Still Mostly True
Updated in July, 2005 with an Aqua color cover. This
is the second book, first published in 1994. It includes over 80 stories and
drawings. Many of our collectors have said this book expands on the laughter and
lunacy of the first book, Mostly True. It includes such favorites as "Angels of
Mercy" and "True Things". $14.95 |
|
Hearing Voices
Updated in June, 2004, with a lime green colored cover.
Hearing Voices is the fifth book of the trilogy. (Brian says he's going to try &
stretch the trilogy concept into a mini-series. This book, like all the others,
is hard to categorize, but if we had to, we'd say it's the most domestic of the
books. It is a book that speaks to the real magic & wonder that you find in
everyday moments, living with people in all their glorious strangeness. With over
120 stories & drawings woven together, it gives a quirky (but true) form to what
it feels like to be alive at the turn of the Millennium... $14.95 |

Traveling Light
Traveling Light is Brian's first hardcover book. It's
filled with beautiful, fun, lively & haunting color illustrations. It vibrates
with light (that's the only way we can describe it. Once you hold it in your
hands, see if you can come up with a better description. We'd love to hear
it...) That's not even talking about the stories themselves. This book is filled
with all new stories that range from poignant to wry. It's a gem of a book that
will delight for years to come... $29.95

Trusting Soul
Updated in June 2003, with a purple cover. Trusting Soul
is the sixth book of Brian's trilogy - see, we told you he was going to stretch
this "trilogy" thing! You could consider this book packed full of gifts for the
future. Gifts of laughter & silliness. Of questions that quite possibly have no
answer. Of moments that tie together in a net that will always catch you,
whether you believe it or not. $14.95 |
