it’s thing after another thing. this isn’t even that much of an issue and i still want to chew my own head off, for fuck’s sake.

Hi, is the freshwater fish poster really $68? I'm not sure what goes into the process or anything, it just felt like maybe a mis-type compared to the pricing of some of your other items.

It is yes! The poster version, it's printed on archival fine art paper and its large format. I had requests for a larger size over the years so thought it test one out after the folks at pigeon printhouse reached out to me!

I know large art pieces like that aren't affordable so I do also have the smaller size prints!

Hopefully down the line i'll find a happy medium for more affordable large format prints :-)

Hi! I bought one of your amazing comics some time ago. If I may ask: where did you print them? 🙏💗

It depends on the comic, but I print most of my books with a Spanish printhouse called Printcolor.

SM really can't work properly

It's unfortunate, but I don't side with the complaint this time. Lin should know better, Doyoung fans look up to her.

Noone wanted to slight Doyoung intentionally. It was toughtless from the layout designer/the team responsible for the albums, but it's a very very common mistake. It probably arose from the designer not knowing the kind of binding that would be used for that particular album version. A spread (2 page illustration/photo) is perfectly fully visible in magazine type of binding, for example.

I think there was a similar case with Taeyong's face on a group picture in the past.

Yes, in a perfect world the binding would be taken into consideration, a test copy printed for a final check of colour and mistakes, the group photo sized down for Do's face to not fall onto the seam or excluded altogether. Unfortunately, we don't live in a perfect world, and the communication between an editorial team and a printing company is always bad.

You imagine SM as one being with one head. In reality it is a complex of hundreds of chains of command and projects ran simultaneously. People are overworked and become unattentive, deadlines press into making shortcuts, subcontractors delay delegated to them jobs, things fall apart here and there. Those albums are probably printed in China, then they need to be completed with pocas and CDs, which, perhaps, happens in Korea. Afterwards those albums need to be sent to the shops. And maybe the copyright team prepares the info about songs and authors with a delay, and thus the layout is completed last minute, and then there is no time for a test copy. Or the machines that print one binding versions are occupied with a big order, and the printhouse offers an alternative, and SM's side has to change all the plans, which results in 2-page illustrations becoming an issue.

I do not like that SM can't sort out their album problem. They get better, than they fail again. And they will probably continue to fail again and again, because they are not a publishing company, they have young layout designers that are still gaining experience (we saw those girls in tours of Kwangya), and the company always finishes everything last minute due to fast-paced factory production. However, I also don't have it in me to hate the company for that.

Fans should point out the issue to SM in a calm customer review manner. It might be corrected with additional print. Not oh and ah among themselves, persuading each other how SM hates Doyoung a 100th time.

It's just one picture out of hundreds. Relax.

Spaces between book making idea

Whilst thinking about how I would come to create a final outcome to convey my idea. I feel the visual journal is a great way of showing my personal experience within the space. Whilst documenting and illustrating what I see and hear. But I thought about possible ways of displaying this journal. I feel like a normal journal is usually square / rectangle. Like a normal book but I feel a circular visual journal would work well within my chosen brief topic. Of roundabouts, as the circluar book would show the space between. Showing the contents of the book with this circular space of the book. I wanted to have a look at some examples for inspiration to see if it has been done before.

Measuring 180cm in diameter. It was printed for Hillsong Church. It was firstly created as a square then ram punched into the circular shape afterwards. RAM punching is a specialist form of die cutting in which a printed book or material stack is pushed through a shaped die. Though simpler shapes are better, there are very few shapes and printed materials that cannot be RAM punched. I thought it was an interesting example. I have never heard of ram punched before to create the circular shape. On thing which I am a concerned about when coming to make it will be the small bind which holds the pages together. As it’s smaller than a square book for example it means the book may not be as strong. So experimenting with this first will be important in knowing how to do it for my final outcome.

I came across another example of a circular book. This one is a bit more complicated but I feel it’s worth looking at to see how it was made and the reasons behind it. The book consists of two interlocking spirals which create a double helix. One helix is printed with a mix of phrases from Autistica’s Research Priorities Document. The other with screen-printed images of MRI scans of my brain and EEG’s of my brain activity. Where she has integrated text from journals and notebooks that she keeps.

Through this book, I am exploring the strange liminal space between reports ‘of’ and ‘about’ Autism.

I want us all to be very, very clear that this problem with back cover summaries is caused once again by pressure and lack of support from publishing houses against new authors

Using the word "blurb" here is so willfully misleading as to verge on inflammatory. It is the use of a nonspecific umbrella term to refer to back cover summaries in a way that also literally includes review quotes, taglines, synopses, and flavour text. This is blatantly an attempt to incite fights with people over "Just read summaries instead of taglines and synopses/I said summaries you didn't even read my post." Come the fuck on. Make your bait at least a little worth switching.

With that all in mind: yes this is a real problem, where back cover summaries, one type of blurb defined by being a one or several paragraphs that explain the setup of the plot, are being replaced with taglines, another, extremely different blurb that serves almost the exact opposite function of capturing the experience of completing the read.

Now, let's ask ourselves the actual useful questions are instead of getting caught up in ego jerking about which type of blurb is better.

Why in the actual goddamned fuck are summaries being replaced with taglines in the first place, when no one fucking wanted that?

Who. Wanted. That?

The answer, once again, just like always, is profit driven publishing houses decaying under post-colonial capitalism.

Why did they want that?

It's literally just cheaper to market because it's easier to SEO. That's it.

Publishing houses didn't want to spend the money to improve their quality of product, to foster new beds of talent, to support the local level distributors they relied on for generations, or anything that would cost real money. No matter the dividends in the long term, they need money now.

You know what's cheap? I mean really, really cheap? Free, in fact?

Giving the author an absurd demand: make your book as marketable as possible on social media, make it viral, do all your own promotional work with no training and no assistance, certainly no editors or marketers. And then, they say, then maybe we'll help out by publishing you and paying a contractor a subminimum wage to SEO your blurbs, maybe toss in an AI generated summary too.

Turning the slush pit into a bonfire of taglines and viral phrases, and then raking up the hottest coals.

Anyway, the way you market yourself by yourself in situation is with short phrases because holy shit what an obscene demand to put on anyone who doesn't have a marketing degree. So that's where this problem nominally comes from.

But once again the fucking villains are publishers refusing to do the actual work of publishing a fucking book. They're glorified fucking printhouses that don't even pay their authors properly let alone anyone the fuck else.
