weight of ink?

We are a boutique publishing, production and investment company dedicated to discovering, nurturing and celebrating storytellers.

Once upon a time, I completed the last page of a journal…

I held the book in my hand for a few silent moments and thought about how every letter, journal entry, song, play, film, novel, poem or story started with ink.

And then I noticed something curious: the journal felt heavier.

It had weight to it.

Literally. Ink has weight.

How much does ink weigh?

I calculated the weight between my completed journal and the exact journal empty:

.40 ounces

3

42% difference

This was the inspiration.

And then I began to think: how much does ink weigh metaphorically?

Creatively, Spiritually, Intellectually, Emotionally?

The answers to these are hidden in the questions works of art ask.  They are discovered in the relationships between the writer and reader, the artist and audience,

the imagined and the realized.”
