AM Universal

From his wildly popular Tumblr page, Dan Wilbur offers his delightfully cruel summary of the books you were forced to read in high school—with all that resentment and angst loaded into a punchy re-title. Incisive, vindictive, and brutally funny, each page features a recognizable cover with the title renamed. Perfect for parties, gift for fanatic book lovers, and casual bathroom reading.

Additional Writing

I was the Ecards Editor for Someecards.com where I wrote and edited hundreds of cards for over a year. I also wrote a number of things for the website that have nothing to do with cards and a number of things for other publications, some highlights below.
