A provocative new approach to journaling the self . . . Glyphix are what words look like when they are "felt and drawn" instead of spelled. Each person's Glyphix are a unique key to personality. Taking inspiration from Asian pictographs and using a Japanese shodo brush, L.J.C. Shimoda explains how using 66 ordinary English words as prompts for meditation, writing, and drawing Glyphix can help you examine your feelings and relationships to achieve personal and artistic growth. Creating Glyphix is fun, too, a great way for kids and logophiles alike to discover how words work on different levels of meaning. L.J.C. Shimoda is an artist, illustrator, and graphic designer whose work includes the acclaimed drawings in 365 Views of Mt. Fuji.
