Last week at a publishing industry gathering of the Bookbinders Guild of NY, Personality Not Included and Art Director Anthony Landi were honored for the cover design featuring the crazy rainbow chicken. It is a great validation of some hard work from folks behind the scenes in a publishing group that don’t often get the recognition they deserve for the work that they put into making a book look good and be successful. Congratulations to Anthony and the rest of the McGraw-Hill design team for this much deserved honor! It was great to work with you and glad that the book is getting such great recognition from the industry.

Today marks the official release of the Chinese (Mandarin) version of Personality Not Included. It is now available on Amazon China and will be in Chinese bookstores starting next week. We’ll be doing some media and interviews around the book in the coming weeks so if you happen to be in China, hopefully you’ll hear more about the book soon. This is the first of 5 international versions that will be published over the next few months. The others are Taiwanese, Russian, Spanish and Thai.
