As work on the Tao Te Ching Journal nears completion, it is time to select a cover. In part we need to make this decision now because we’ve booked advertising in the major Buddhist journals — Lion’s Roar and Tricycle — and it is time to submit the ads.
If you would be willing to share your opinion on which cover you prefer, that would be much appreciated. You can email any thoughts you have to rod@herondance.org or post them in the Substack comments.

Within a week, we’ll offer The Tao Te Ching journal at a pre-publication discount. Also, for Members who have supported this work with a recurring or one-time contribution within the last year, we’ll be sending out discount codes that provide free shipping and 25% off on originals. First, we need to finish some final work on the website which will take a few more days. One of the website changes is a 50% reduction in price of all archival canvas prints. The prices on most prints have already been adjusted — there are only about ten of 200 still to do.
Of the images above, three are currently available as originals:
If you are interested in any of these originals, and are a contributing Member, email me and I’ll make the adjustment.
If you are not a contributing Member, you can become one here.
