Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading.Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
My Teasers:
“You understand this instantly. And you understand this without even being conscious of it.”
~ p.15, “The Non-Designer’s Design Book” by Robin P. Williams

I think there are a lot of things about design that work this way. Problem is, if you aren’t conscious of it, it’s hard to define what you need to do about it!
