Whew. After a few all-nighters and two pots of coffee, Mankind Mag is here! I’m terribly excited about this issue for two reasons:
1. LOADS of more content. We’ve got interviews, lists, exclusives and more— 32 pages of sheer bliss!
2. Handmade. It’s a movement that is near and dear to my heart and I loved focusing the mag on such a beautiful theme.
So, most of you know the drill. For those of you who are new to Mankind Mag, what you’ll be seeing is a 100% independent publication for lovers of our growing art/design community. Mankind Mag is free online or available for purchase. Here’s the breakdown:
Mankind Mag: Issue Five!
Online = FREE. Preview it here or download it here.
Print = $8.95. Purchase it here.
Are you so excited? Me, too.
If you love this issue, feel free to donate below— all proceeds go toward further development of the mag and will contribute to Mankind’s re-brand in January ’09! [More on this later…]
That’s all for today! I’m off for the evening until Friday when Papa Bill comes home from the hospital! Enjoy the issue, and spread the word with this nifty Mankind Mag badge!

Erin, congrats! I´m very happy with this issue, sounds exciting!
I want to ask you something too, I would like to make you a very short interview about this project, as you know I told about the magazine to my students of graphic design, they loved the project. So, when you have time, can I send you a few questions? tell me what you think and thank you very much!
This is gorgeous! Full of such amazing inspiration! Love it Erin!
Just wondering if there is any advance on being able to purchase the print version overseas? I would just love to get my hands on those juicy, tactile pages.

I love the pdf, but I still want a hard copy so I can rip everything out and stare at it all day!
I read it this morning while the kids were swimming. There are some fabulous interviews in this issue Erin. Great job!
This has been my favorite issue of Design for Mankind mag so far. Such a pleasure for the eyes and heart. *.*
THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH! :)
I surfed over here from Poppytalk’s mention of your mag. After downloading it I couldn’t help but blaze through the entire thing! Great work! Chances are I’ll mention it on my blog today I love it so much!
It’s only taken me about a week now (I’m never this late!), but just ordered my copy. Looks great and can’t wait for it to arrive.
It makes one (one who has never crafted before, that is) want to be a crafter! Thank you Erin, so inspiring!
