Guildsman’s Handbook
Guide to the Guild
The definitive introduction to The Guild, Guildliness and all things…Guild… IN A HANDY POCKET-SIZED FORMAT!
That’s right: if you’ve got pockets, I’ve got a book that’ll probably fit into one of them. I mean it’s 150ish pages long so…who really knows. It’ll probably fit, but will it be comfortable? Possibly not. Possibly that’s THE WHOLE IDEA! Only one way to find out for sure though, eh?
I’ve been writing and re-writing this book on and off for the the last six years, and I’ve finally realised it needs to see the light of day in order to a) stay true to some of its own foundational principles (i.e. BE STRONG AND JUST GET IT DONE!) and b) get the feedback necessary to IMPROVE it.
In essence, it explains the nine guiding ‘principles’ around which I – and my fellow Guildsfolk – try to live. That isn’t to say they are the best of all principles by which to live, unless you’re trying to be a Guildsperson – in which case they are. I’ve debated and explaining and tested these ideals time and time again throughout my own silly life, and I’m honoured to share them with you so you can see if they work for you as well.
One of the coolest things about the book are the nine glorious illustrations created for me by Arik Meijer aka. Solsort Ink. These put context and imagery around my words, and bring the whole thing to life in a way that I could never have imagined myself.
I’m delighted and slightly terrified to share this work with you, but it’s important that I do.
Thus, the Guild.
