There is the newsletter sent on july 22th 2002.
Its never too late to subscribe!

When I ride my bike, i often discover new places and this makes me feel alive.
~~~ What makes you feel alive? ~~~
Monthly quote
Definition of what is wellbeing, from Brian Eno, Musician:
“Having just the right amount of time”
(Quote found in an old issue of Bare magazine.
Recycling old magazines is a good idea!)
What’s new?
Lots of things!
*First, this newsletter! I will try to let you know, as shortly as i can,
what’s going on with the projects i am working on, and of course i will
try to share a bit of what inspires me…
I hope this newsletter can put some sun in your day!
* Second news, CreativeDay (http://creativeday.unitedsituation.de)
was mentioned in Sark’s June e-letter! A lot of people are contributing
to the site everyday, sharing about what inspire them, what is creativity
for them, etc. I also receive lots of e-mail from people saying how
reading other peoples interviews inspired them! If you haven’t
filled out your interview yet you can still do it now!
*Also, i finally have some merchandising online!
For now you can get high quality copies of my illustrations for
25 Euro (US $29 outside Europe), including shipping cost.
I also just designed limited edition mousepads and mugs of
‘Traveling Dreamer In New York’, more products will join later on.

A gift for you,
my *Sparkling August* calendar page!
Get ready for August! I just finished my August’s “easy to live with”
calendar, free and ready for you to download & print out.
I first did the calendar page for my personal use, since i can never
find a agenda that fits to my needs, and decided to share it online.
Lets see if the world will look less serious in august.. 😉
The page is not like a usual agenda, i haven’t displayed all the days,
because if you are like me, i totally hate to see my agenda crowded
with notes and appointments. I need more free time than working time,
that’s why i only put some fields named “Important Dates” so you can
note the dates you shouldn’t miss. There is also my “monthly quote”,
and a list of “Things I should do” and “Things i would like to do”.
Why? because i am learning that happiness lies in following what
we like to do.
Once printed out, the calendar page is 8×11 inch size so it can be
either fixed on a wall near your working area (like i do), or you
can take it with you in a notebook.
The only thing i ask in exchange is for you to let me know if you
use the calendar, and your comments about it! (such as “put more
lines in the “things i would like to do” section!”, or anything else 🙂
Otherwise share it and enjoy!
The *Sparkling August* calendar page here
I need your help!
* I am searching for a representative, it would help me if you can
spread my url or let me know if you might know someone who could
represent me!
* You can always buy my illustrations, cups, mouse pads, for you
or as gift, they might put some sun in your life and in the lifes of people
around you!
* Also, please try to be happy! Dont take things too seriously, and
try to do things that you love to do. More happy people we are,
better our world will be 🙂
I wish you a nice August, and until the next newsletter,
dont be shy to get in touch, i would like to hear from you!
Sunny greetings from Hamburg, Germany,
