Although it won't be on shelves for another seven months, last week Amazon put up the cover art and a short description for
"The Art Of Brave", which I had the pleasure of authoring. It's going to be quite a beautiful book, one that I only wish could have been twice as long as its 160 pages. I'll write more about it here as publication time draws nearer.
In other Brave-related news, Brenda Chapman began using Twitter and has started a
Tumblr blog. There's not much there yet as she only just began it, but it does link to a new, very good
two-part interview with Brenda on the site
Pixar Portal. Her thoughts on art, work and storytelling are a must-read.

The Art of Brave is definitely going on my wish list! Congrats! :)
Also, thanks for the heads up on Brenda being on Twitter/Tumblr. That's awesome!
I'm really looking forward to the book, Jenny! Even though my eyes aren't gonna see it for a while, I can say without a doubt that it'll be terrific and that you have done a wonderful job!
Wow ! I had no idea you were authoring this book. I think all the "Art of ..." books should be authored by artists. That makes more sense. I will definitely pre-order from Amazon.
Will also check out Brenda's blog. Thanks for the link.
I got to talk to Brenda briefly at CTN a few weeks ago. I had not seen her in years. Looking forward to what she'll be doing next.
Congratulations on the book. It sounds like a brilliant idea to have an artist author these "Art of Books". I look forward to getting a copy (and that's the first of these books I've looked forward to.) I also hope the movie is good.
Wow, congratulations on doing this, Jenny! I agree with Michael, having an artist do an 'art of' book is a fantastic idea, and makes me look forward to this all the more.
Kyrstin: thank you!
Michael J. R.: Your eyes will see it almost as soon as mine do-thanks again for the fantastic job you did.
David: I agree! And thanks for the comment and the support. I really do wish it could have been longer...certainly there was enough material.
Michael S: it's such a pleasure to see your name here! Thanks for the kind props...I really hope you enjoy it.
Kevin: Thank you! I hope all's well with you and yours. It's hard for me to believe that panel mentioned on the TAG blog was only 5 years ago. Seems more like a hundred years.
Congrats, Jenny! Looking forward to it!
Wow! This is a no-brainer purchase based on both content and author. I can not wait to read this one!

Now that's a good question! Amid recommended me to the publisher, so he bears part of the blame.
