[kirkscarr]

it’s official!! First, Best Destiny -- Part 1 by the lovely @ophelia-j finally has the physical form that it deserves!! here’s a little photoshoot of the finished product (:

to see how i bound this book i have another post that can be found here.

next up: specialty pages!!

first off there are these title pages

and then the copyright page!

the table of contents!

*note: i did remove the chapter notes to format it more like a “real” book. (looking back, i honestly wish i hadn’t because i do always love reading those!) because i removed the notes, i decided to include which episode/movie the chapters follow in the table of contents!!

the chapter headers!! THEORETICALLY it says t'hy'la in vulcan script.

and then i have this TBC page that i stuck in right before the epilogue!

this is such a small detail but it honestly might be one of my favorite parts. i did my very best to emulate a real book's design, so i have this fun little barcode/QR code at the very back. and!! the QR code links to the actual Ao3 story!! how cool is that???

conclusion!!

throughout every step of the bookbinding process i was mentally like "this is gonna be the step where it ALL FALLS APART" and??? it never did??? like? i just made a 900 page book??? that's crazy guys.

anyways!! i am so, so, SO thrilled that i am now the proud owner of a physical copy of First, Best Destiny -- Part 1.

*sidenote for the author!! thank you so much for all your support on my last post - it actually made my day! <33

Red, White & Royal Blue Rebind

[ID: Eight pictures of a hand-bound rebind of the book "Red, White & Royal Blue." The first shows the cover, which has been bound in light gray bookcloth and is decorated to look like a suit with a union jack tie. There are two cardstock buttons, one that says "Vote Claremont" and the other that says "History, huh?" On the right side, the title "Red, White and Royal Blue" is painted on in red, white, and blue paint respectively. On the left side, the author name "Casey McQuiston" is painted on in white paint. The second shows the spine, covered also in gray bookcloth. It has the title "Red, White and Royal Blue" painted on in red, white, and blue paint respectively and the author name "Casey McQuiston" painted on in white paint. The third shows the book from the top so the headbands, sewn with red, white, and blue thread, can be seen. The fourth shows the title page of the book, which has the title "Red, White and Royal Blue" in red, white, and blue ink respectively, as well as the author name "Casey McQuiston" beneath it. The fifth shows the colophon page (left) and dedication page (right). The colophon has details about the book, as well as the binder logo for Blue Skies Books (a bluejay) and the logo for Renegade Publishing (a bookpress). The dedication page says, "For the weirdos and the dreamers" in a sans serif font above a black and white drawing of a reflective lake with pine trees around it. The sixth shows a chapter header page, which has a gray skyline that merges the skylines of DC and London across the top of it. The word "One" is in all caps in white on the lefthand side of the skyline, and body text is beneath it in a serif font. The seventh shows the inside of the book, drawing attention to the formatting of the emails throughout the book. The emails include icons for both Henry and Alex, email addresses, timestamps, and subjects. The eighth shows the inside of the book, drawing attention to the red, white, and blue heart page divider and the handwriting fonts used within the regular body text for certain words. /End ID]

When the Red, White and Royal Blue movie came out last year, I rediscovered my love for this book and these characters and just had to do a rebind of it! This is a full rebind, so I've done the typeset myself as well as the cover. I had a delightful time coming up with the cover design (I imagine this is modeled after a theoretical Alex suit, though it could be Henry's as well!), and I had an especially fun time doing the typeset. There are so many fun formatting elements in this story, and it was great getting to put my own spin on them.

Logistics-wise, this bind uses Lumeiere fabric paint and a Silhouette-cut stencil for the words, Silhouette-cut cardstock for the decorative elements, handmade cotton bookcloth for the cover, cotton embroidery thread for the endbands, and regular Hammermill cream paper for the textblock. (Once I've saved up for it, I'm looking forward to getting some short-grain textblock paper! This is still long grain.) The body font is Cochin and the title font is Montserrat.

And finally: my bind versus my trade paperback copy!

[ID: A picture of the hand-bound version of "Red, White and Royal Blue" from above held next to the mass-produced paperback version of the same book. They are made in different styles with different color schemes, but both have a fun and slightly whimsical appearance to them. /End ID]

malevolent enterprise ch. 1

cw: ceo!au. sukuna and yuuji are siblings. drug use. header by @/cafekitsune! a/n: background to a series of oneshots. masterlist

Exactly two unexpected things occur exactly one week to the hour of Wasuke Itadori’s death - 1. Yuuji Itadori, second grandson from his only son Jin Itadori, inherits all of Itadori Enterprises and its subsidiaries and 2. Yuuji’s older brother and lifetime antagonist Sukuna formally changes his name to Ryomen, and establishes Ryomen Industries.

Yuuji, in moments, is saddled with the grand title of C.E.O., and Sukuna, if he didn’t have enough reasons to dislike his kind, caring younger brother, has finally added yet another one to the list. This part doesn’t particularly bother him, after all, even Yuuji has to admit, no matter how much he has tried to love his brother over the years, Sukuna is fundamentally a piece of shit. 

And that’s exactly why he’s the perfect choice for the job.

Yuuji sighs and takes another piece of sushi off of the left flank of the poor girl who’s been laid prone and nearly naked on the table for most of the evening. He’d ask her if her shift was coming to an end soon but even he had to admit it felt weird asking about the work conditions to a girl who was meant to be a prop at an event that was theoretically in his honor. The salmon is exactly the right temperature and feel in his mouth and he can’t ask for more. He offers her a thumbs up as he walks past her which has her somewhat confused, then makes his way back to the lounge chairs.

Sukuna by now has stopped schmoozing all the other industry leaders in the room and now contents himself with four giggling floozies in his lap, his practically blood-red eyes glowing in the neon club lighting as he smirks at him. Yuuji gives him an exasperated look but finds a seat far away alone. He’s actually not sure why he’s still here - the new personal assistant that was assigned to him is already sending emails from the interim chief that he still doesn’t understand and Sukuna’s already told half of the attendees he expects him to run Grandpa’s business into the ground. A few girls venture in his direction, one of which Yuuji has to admit is pretty enough to make his cheeks warm (if it’s not his last three beers finally kicking in) but Sukuna’s already whistled and called them over by the time the first girl opens her mouth to introduce herself.

“I’ve got plenty of arm space to spare!” he practically cackles, and the last girl, the pretty one, takes a last look at Yuuji before apologetically sauntering over to his brother for attention. Sukuna and another young CEO, who Sukuna cruelly trash-talked just less than a month ago, take shots off of another woman’s chest, and Sukuna finishes off the theatrics with a line of coke down her abdomen. 

Yuuji rolls his eyes, but before he can get up and finally convince himself to leave rather than tolerate his brother’s antics, another body slides into the booth next to him, bumping him on the shoulder.

“New CEO!” 

Indoor sunglasses cover the young man’s eyes and before Yuuji can smile and embrace him, Satoru Gojo has him practically in a headlock mussing up his hair. 

“Oi! Stop!” Yuuji hisses, embarrassed to be treated like a kid, especially in the presence of his older brother already trying to force him back into the shadows. Yuuji recollects himself, adjusting the lapel of his shirt but Satoru frowns.

“I’m shocked you made it,” Yuuji says. He’s delighted to see his family friend, just as odd and eccentric as Sukuna can be but with less of the dickish behavior.

Somewhat. 

"I mean hopping on my jet, cutting my vacation short-” Satoru stops and sighs, stretching out his long limbs as he leans deeper into the soft cushions, “but of course I’d show up to congratulate you.” Gojo sits up suddenly, leaning in, and Yuuji doesn’t ask himself how he can see through those. 

“So are you gonna compete with me now? Throw me out of the market?”

Yuuji grins. “I don’t think you’re touchable in all honesty, but even if you were,  I think we can both agree to be successful.”

Gojo is satisfied with this answer. Clinking his beer bottle on Yuuji’s forehead, a move that genuinely throws him off guard, Gojo downs the rest of the bottle then turns, winking at a girl in Sukuna’s court, and when she nearly rises, Sukuna gives him a practically glowing red glare. 

Gojo laughs, then turns back to Yuuji who snorts.

“I think there are enough girls to spare, Aniki,” Yuuji teases. He leans in, draping his arm over his senpai’s shoulder. “After all, I’m pretty sure Sukuna’s laywer friend is here, just waiting for you to get on her nerves.”

Gojo laughs. “She hates my guts but I know she wants me in hers.”

Yuuji sips on the beer he’d set aside, not bothering to make an additional comment, remembering the last time he mentioned the redhead to him, he’d spent nearly thirty minutes just talking about her tits. Despite this, the same man could easily be found in numerous news articles with a number of different women, so he couldn’t actually be sure of the depth of his interest, but Yuuji had the feeling that Gojo felt a little differently about her. 

A sideways glance makes it clear that Satoru is already scanning the room, to see if she’s still here amongst the throng of people. Yuuji watches Sukuna who seems to have chased away the extra floozies and now sits with one girl straddling him, his own hand suspiciously low down the curve of his ass, and the other licking and whispering into his ear, something that looks vaguely doglike. Yuuji frowns and looks away, but Gojo has already risen, his own instincts prompting him to find someone to go home with. 

But before he can go off and get really wasted, Yuuji realizes he has a serious question for the more experienced corporate bigwig before he calls it a night.

“Aniki.”

Gojo’s head turns to him, a drunken half-smile on his face.

“Ne?”

“It’s a work question,” Yuuji answers with a tinge of discomfort. Asking for help is embarrassing at this stage, but Gojo is the only one who doesn’t judge him, rather helps even if it’s in a way that seems ridiculous, like some kind of flippant genius.

Gojo frowns.

“Fine, but you have to promise to have a good time.” 

With that, Gojo starts to sway with the music, and with the great length of his body and limbs, dressed in all black from head to toe, Yuuji is briefly reminded of bamboo gently swaying in the wind. He stifles a laugh before rendering himself serious again. 

“You’ll call me a dumbass but I have a new vacancy that’s sort of high up and I’m trying to figure out who to hire.”

The lenses obscuring Gojo’s eyes don’t help Yuuji gauge his thoughts but Gojo is still dancing so Yuuji continues talking.

“I want someone from the outside. Someone who didn’t know my grandpa or Sukuna. Any recommendations where I should start looking?”

Gojo does a full body roll, then stops. 

“I’ll send you an application tomorrow. Now loosen the fuck up.”

Yuuji blinks, then starts the two-step of a man who is under too much stress but not drunk enough.

“Okay.”

[clangenrising]

I got the notification for the ask about the upcoming Rustlets and it made me think I had missed an update and that they were already here! But while I’m here, Oddstripe’s redesign is genuinely so gorgeous. Like I’m blown away by the updated header I can’t stop staring at it oml. I was a bit worried about the genetic accuracy stuff since I have early warriors fandom realism discourse trauma lmao, and I’ve always been down for unrealistic designs and genetics. But the way you’ve been talking about it has actually gotten me pretty excited! I might have to take my own crack at making my own ocs genetically accurate!

Aww thank you so much! Genetically accurate cat ocs is one of my OCD compulsions haha so I was excited to do it, but I'm definitely going to leave room for stylization and artistic interpretation. The main thing I'm trying to stick to is that each cat's parents/kittens are theoretically possible even if their phenotypes are unlikely or exaggerated.

I'm really glad to hear that I've excited you with my discussion! I'm really enjoying the process myself. I wish I had the capacity to do livestreams at the moment cause I would love to do a stream where I catalogue the other Clans' genetics (I've already finished doing my entire RisingClan save).

[skitskatdacat63]

catie omg. new header and pfp gorgeous.... i need more bmw seb in my life....... and the blue/gold suits you!!

vettonso webweave..... there were so many parallels already before aston but it's like everythings lining up even more now?????? like nano's following exactly in sebs footsteps even though theoretically he came first...... also definitely suzuka 2023. that was the turning point for me for vettonso i think sob sobbbbb

also also !!!! happy new year, sending hugs and lots of loveeeeeee

Thank you thank you I'm very happy with it 🥹

BMW seb makes me feel like a feral animal, he's so perfect and pretty and small, like how are these pics(small selection) real???

I'm surprised he hasn't been my pfp yet considering how often I scour the internet for pics of him. He's my little guy, my little creacher, my baby, etc etc. So now he is in the esteemed position of: pfp. Aaahh also in the one I chose, do you see the tiny little curl of hair on his temple? It's so 🤧

I digress. Vettonso. I'll probably post it at some point, but I have this little timeline thing for them, lining up their careers. And it makes me so insane that they both ended(theoretically) at Aston. Truly the "sending out old horses to pasture" team. I already ranted abt it in your tags hahaha but the fact that Fernando's successes in 2023 are basically the combination of their mutual efforts: Seb developing the 2023 car despite suffering in 2022, and Fernando's insane skills. Something something Fernando reaping the benefits that Seb sowed. Something something passing the torch. "Please accomplish what I wasn't able to, please accomplish what I didn't have the strength or energy for anymore, please benefit off the fruits of my labor, etc." It's so funny though that Nando was like "Seb probably couldn't accomplish what I did in 2023," okay but sir how did you get such a good car hmm 🤨

I'm so glad Japan 2023 dragged you down into depths 😭😭 that is still such an insane moment for me. I think we all became vettonso shippers in that moment. I'm sure I'd be just as insane if it didn't happen, bcs im committed like that, but god it made the brainrot feel so worth it. I shan't wax poetic abt it now tho cause I've definitely done it enough already.

Happy new year!!!!! Thank you for such a nice ask, and basically soliciting a rant from me DJKFKFLF. I was gonna answer this when I woke up because it is certainly an [undisclosed hour] rn. But it's you!!! So I gotta!!! Much love <3

[catre33]

My favourite books in my personal library: (in completely random order)

The Little Prince by Antione de Saint Exupery. 111pg

'The little prince lived alone on a tiny planet no larger than a house. He owned three volcanoes, two active and one extinct. He also owned a flower, unlike any flower in all the galaxy, of great beauty and of inordinate pride. It was this pride that ruined the serenity of the little prince's world and started him on the interplanetary travels that brought him to earth, where he learned, finally, from a fox, the secret of what is really important in life.'

OH, my heart-. This absolute journey of a story is impossibly dear to me. I always pull it out when I need a reminder to grow old, but never grow up; and how stupid grown-ups can be. I've read this at least 7 times and watched the corresponding movie at least 5 times. It puts such a thrilling perspective on things I have had to fight with myself whether it should go in the fantasy or philosophy section. Sometimes we all need to remember how simple the world really is.

High Maintenance by Jennifer Belle 351pg

'Liv Kellerman has just left her cheating husband and--more tragically--their fabulous duplex with its Empire State Building views. Now Liv--alone for the first time in her life with few marketable skills, and crammed into a crumbling "fixer-upper" in Greenwich Village--is contemplating her next move...'

This book is HILARIOUS. I read it during my first and only trip to The Big Apple and finished it in the hotel room on the 2nd day (if I remember correctly). High Maintenance made the trip so much more thoughtful, and the people-watching much more interesting. People-watching in New York is already AMAZING, but I was able to better imagine the story behind the dude doing pull-ups on the street lamp (no joke). And it honestly made me think more than it made me laugh.S

tonewords, A Ghost Story by Pam Conrad 130pg

'The first time Zoe met Zoe Louise, Zoe was four years old. Zoe Louise was more than one hundred. From that day on--living in the same house, separated by a staircase and a century--Zoe and Zoe Louise have been an important and permanent part of each other's lives. Now Zoe is older. And although Zoe Louise never grows up, she is changing in dreadful, frightening ways. Time is running out for Zoe's best friend--and Zoe is the only one who can help her. To do so, she must travel back one hundred years in time and somehow alter the past. But in changing the past, must she also change the present? If she saves her friend's life, will she lose Zoe Louise forever?'

Stonewords is an annual fixture in my life. Though it doesn't in my book classify as a thriller it's still a ghost story and my favorite thing to read late on Halloween night. It's also one of the only books that use theoretical time travel that I will tolerate (mainly because it doesn't try to explain it away but rolls with the ideas). The character development is refreshing, as it is not in the ways you would originally expect.

The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown 489pg

'An ingenious code hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci. A desperate race through the cathedrals and castles of Europe. An astonishing truth concealed for centuries...unveiled at last.'

This book is an absolute constant stream of 'I should have seen that coming!!!' I mean, are you kidding me?! Twists and turns left and right, never quite knowing where you are for a couple of paragraphs, and riddles hidden in the page headers! And an absolute wonder as a mythology lover having grown up in a Mormon household. The recognition of pagan beliefs and traditions that have become such essential parts of Christian culture is incredible. The Da Vinci Code rivals Good Omens as my favourite book of all time.

Please Ignore Vera Dietz by A. S. King 323pg

'Is it okay to hate a dead kid? Even if I loved him once? Even if he was my best friend? Is it okay to hate him for being dead? Vera's spent her whole life secretly in love with her best friend, Charlie Kahn. And over the years she's kept a lot of his secrets. Even after he betrayed her. Even after he ruined everything. So when Charlie dies in dark circumstances, Vera knows a lot more than anyone--the kids at school, his family, even the police. But will she emerge to clear his name? Does she even want to?'

This was a surprisingly recent read; and though it took a little bit to get into it, I was entranced. It was really just an erratic puzzle coming together much slower than I would have liked it to, and it was terribly easy to relate to Vera's desire to please be ignored. I have to be honest; I grew as a person, reading this book. You get to know the dead kid more than you think you would. It is altogether nowhere near what I expected, and more than I thought I'd ever need.

Scarpetta by Patricia Cornwell 579pg

'Leaving behind her private forensic pathology practice in Charleston, South Carolina, Kay Scarpetta takes an assignment in New York City, where an injured patient in Bellevue Hospital's psychiatric prison ward has specifically asked for her. While Scarpetta examines him, she listens to one of the most bizarre stories she has ever heard. Oscar Bane says his injuries were sustained in the course of a murder...that he did not commit...' (the blurb is paraphrased as it is the longest blurb in history sorry)

Not only is this book written by one of my favourite milfs, but there is also a very homo romantic subplot that I could not get enough of!!! (pg354 AAAH!!!) Scarpetta and everyone around her had me hooked from the first words (which were 'Brain tissue'). There is nothing I could do while reading this but live the plot. The incredibly emotive writing dragged me along for a rough but worthwhile ride.

Frogkisser! by Garth Nix 372pg

'Poor Princess Anya. Forced to live with her evil stepmother's new husband, her evil stepstepfather. Plagued with an unfortunate ability to break curses with a magic-assisted kiss. And forced to go on the run when her stepstepfather decides to make the kingdom entirely his own. Aided by a loyal talking dog, a boy thief trapped in the body of a newt, and some extraordinarily mischievous wizards, Anya sets off on a Quest that, if she plays it right, will ultimately free her land--and teach her a thing or two about the use of power, the effectiveness of a well-placed pucker, and the finding of friends in places both high and low.'

I bought this book from an elementary school book fair when I was maybe 10 years old, and it must be one of my most 'loved' paperbacks with all it's been through. It has been in the hands of family and friends and calls me out in ways I will never admit. Frogkisser! is a beautiful story with the perfect doses of snarky and silly weaved throughout every character. I used to know the plot so well that I would open to a page at random and read it just to cheer myself up. Now it's a nostalgic symbol of my childhood; not just of the good parts, but a basis of the good parts.

Skellig by David Almond 182pg

'Michael was looking forward to moving into a new house. It was all going to be wonderful. But now his baby sister's ill, his parents are frantic, and Dr. Death has come to call. Michael feels helpless. Then one day he steps into the crumbling garage. What is this thing beneath the spiderwebs and dead flies? A human being, or a strange kind of beast never seen before? The only person Michael can confide in is his new friend Mina. Together they carry the creature out into the light, and Michael's world changes forever.'

This was also a very recent read and oh my goodness gracious aGnES NUTTER, WITCH! I didn't know what to do with myself after it. I... I can't even explain it. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, to read this book for the first time. I was helpless in dreaming of angels and owls and clay and death and life and everything in between. I could never possibly do Skellig justice, so I'll leave it at this. Read it, and you'll know what I mean.

Notes: Good Omens is not listed here as it lives in my schoolbag, not my personal library. Coincidentally, all books listed were paperbacks LMAO

[dballzposting]

say hypothetically someone was going to a con where tarbles english va was going to be. if that someone was to give him one of your pics of tarble to autograph, which one would it be?

HOLY SHIT?!!!?? Tarble's only English VA is his voice in Raging Blast 2 right? But this is hypothetical of course.

Um hypothetically um um one of MY pics? UM I WOULD BE FLATTERED. And uhmmm . Hypothetically? For the sake of a thought experiment?

Um uh

Ideally there would exist a normal and cute image for a VA to sign but i don't have pics like that! I don't have pics like that floating around that aren't poor pencil pics in my sketchbooks. My only presentable ones are weird. This is so sad. I just have "Strange Boy" by Kerli & Vegeta and Tarble go Clubbign Adventure (most of which are unfinished) and also a headshot of him but it ISN'T VIBE !!

Ok Ok Here is a list of drawings on my computer that feature Tarble from Dragon Ball: Like just to give you an idea of what we're fucking dealing with here: FOR THE SAKE OF MAKING A TARBLE GALLERY:

IM SORRY I DONT THINK IT'S WISE OF ME TO JUST DUMP PICS LIKE THIS. This isn't fruitful. But it's a Tarble Gallery. I love galleries.

AND THEN THERES OF COURSE any pic of him on ask-tarble. If his VA could theoretically sign an ask-tarble image then that'd be so based if it was the Icon or the header / desktop bg:

OK. THIS IS HYPOTHETICVAL. BUT IF THIS WERE TO HAPPEN FOR REAL IN REAL LIFE, THEN, I think that I would want to HAVE A MINUTE, TO , LIKE, COOK UP SOMETHIGN NEW? It's just that, like, hypothetically, if someone were to meet Tarble's VA at a con, and had him sign one of MY PICS, then, like, it should probably be something good and proper, yknow?

Like HYPOTJHETICALLY!!!1 I would PROBABLY want to draw somethign NEW!! Maybe?? Or just give him an ask-tarble to sign??

I don't know. IS THIS HYPOTHETICAL OR REAL ??

Becasue there are a LOT of nice Tarble pics out there it doesnt have to be one of mine but ... Oh my god but i would DIE.

UMMM IS THIS HYPOITHETICAL OR REAL BECASUE I WILL DRAW A NEW ONE FOR HIM IF THIS IS REAL..?? BUT THEN AGAIN It would be based as fuck AND good for branding if it was an ask-tarble pic. ESPECIALLY BECAUSE HIS 1-YEAR ANNIVERSARY IS COMING UP..!!

This one is my icon on discord I think it's really good out of context

SORRY. SO SORRY. SORRY.

IF THIS IS REAL & TODD HABERKORN IS GOING TO BE AT A CON & SOMEONE IS GOING TO GO THERE & THERE'S A CHANCE THAT THEY'LL GET TO MEET HIM & THEY WANT TO MAYBE GIVE HIM A DBALLZPOSTING TARBLE TO SIGN, THEN I WILL Create an ask-tarble 1-year anniversary pic that is simple & affable & something that a VA wouldnt mind signing. OR NOT. LIKE, IT'S UP TO WHOEVER IS SEEING HIM..? I'm an ask-tarble-head despite everything so thats just me talking here.

Um. What's going on. Long post sorry. WHY THE HELL WOULD ANYONE EVEN KNOW HIS RAGING BLAST 2 VA ? Who finds an anime dub VA and is like "hey i wonder if they did anything for a dragon ball video game" yknow?

Am I insane?

Please get back to me ASAP with whether this is real or truly hypothetical. I need to know if I should make room in my schedule to freak out. Call me

As the poets say

One year ago today (March 18, 2022), I bound my very first book--@arthureameslove's As the poets say. It was a bit messy and slightly poorly constructed, but I had made it myself, and I could read it, and I was intensely proud of it. One year later, I thought it would be a nice way to reflect back on my progress as a binder if I rebound this fic! Below are the first edition, bound in March 2022 (left), and the second edition, bound in March 2023 (right).

I made quite a few changes between the first and second editions! The most noticeable of these are the size (the first edition is a half-letter book and the second is a quarter-letter book) and the covers (the first edition is half-bound in bookcloth and paper and the second is fully bound in cloth with cutouts that show a printed image beneath). I learned a lot of things between then and now, including:

How to properly measure my materials (no more exposed bookboard for me! 😅)

How to add titles to books (in this case, using both a foil quill and Lumiere fabric paint to reinforce it)

How to add sewn headbands

How to do cutouts (this is actually my first book using cutouts!)

How to wax paper (the paper in the cutouts is waxed and thus [theoretically] water-resistant)

How to make different sizes of books

How to add hinges

I also spruced up the typeset between the first and second editions--pictures of that are below the cut! I've had such a wonderful time bookbinding this past year--learning how to bind is one of the best decisions I ever made, and the sense of community it's given me amongst other binders and with fic writers is unparalleled. I love being able to make physical copies of my favorite works and to gift copies to the authors, and it's really something special to create a book with my own hands. Thank you to @arthureameslove for writing such a delightful fic, and I look forward to many more years of bookbinding to come 💜

The typeset for the first edition was quickly done because I was eager to try binding a book but didn't want to use the fics I had gotten printed on nice paper at the print shop. I had planned to bind As the poets say at a later point, but I decided to instead turn it into my first project! I've made some changes to my typesetting process since putting the first edition together, including completely reformatting the front matter, cutting the half-title page (I often feel it's unnecessary, particularly in quarto books), getting my images from entirely public-domain sources, changing around my preferred fonts, and generally getting more creative with my typesetting! I've included pictures below of the title pages, front matter, and chapter header pages for the first and second editions. I tried to keep the general theme (cursive font, ocean iconography) the same between both versions to better explore how I've grown over the year. I'm quite proud of my progress!
