Switching from Cafepress to Zazzle

A quick note (as it's quite late): As you may know, I've been tinkering around with all sorts of fun Knockout designs on the print-on-demand site Cafepress. Well, after seeing some of the cool publicity stuff on Zazzle, I switched, so if you're looking for Knockout gear, that's the place to go. I'll update all of the links and all that good stuff tomorrow (and our cafepress site still works, of course), but the Zazzle site is a lot cleaner and the displays look pretty lovely. Here's an example for y'all to ponder.

Good night,

New T-shirt up

As you might have gathered from my random blog postings, aside from being a poetryface, I'm a bit of a science geek. As a matter of fact, I'm in love with all things NASA. I tell everyone I know: my two favorite governmental organizations are NASA and the Postal Service.

In any case, I too was disheartened when Pluto was voted off the island. To that end, I've been making random t-shirts on Cafepress. It's really just more for fun than anything, but here is a new one, in case you're interested:

Knockout Donates to The Trevor Project, Martin Espada Reading

As I mentioned in an earlier blog post, Knockout's donating a portion of proceeds to The Trevor Project. Well, we're off to a good start. Knockout's on Facebook and we created a Knockout Facebook Cause and through that, we've donated $224 to the The Trevor Project so far. (All donations to our Facebook Cause goes right to the The Trevor Project.)

We also created some cool Knockout gear on Cafepress; half of the proceeds go to The Trevor Project too. Here's an example:



I also just got word that Martin Espada will be reading in the Twin Cities later this month. He'll be at Hamline University on March 19. Knockout will be there, so if you're going, we'll see you there.

New T-Shirt Designs on Cafe Press

OK, just so-s you knows, I've been slaving away designing t-shirts and all varieties of Knockout-related clothing on CafePress. Our cafepress store includes a wide variety of KO-gear, as well as gear for the general book-lover and or dinosaur fan (see the "thesaurus" above). Half of the proceeds from two sections of our shop go to charitable foundations--so get some cool gear and help improve educational opportunties in Sudan or prevent GLBT Youth Suicide. The rest goes to KO. I'm posting a few examples of what we've got to offer here; let me know what you think; I've been working away on these like a bee of work. Bzz. I'll have more designs up soon and more KO-news soon too.
