In this 78 page Riso and inkjet printed publication, Graphic Design MFA students at the Otis College of Art and Design in LA discuss different contemporary design titles and produce graphic compositions inspired by each one! The result is a showcase of creativity and responses to design discourse and artist publications, reflecting the perspectives and talents of an international cohort.
What Can Books Do? is the outcome of a three-day workshop we did in June with 14 students. The publication was collectively printed and bound by the students on 3 paper stocks, with help from the incredible lab staff at Otis.
Graphic contributions designed and printed by Aurora Cecconi, Angie Chan, Wai Yan Cheung, Anthony Luna, Darah Haimovitz, Amanda Liu, Graciela De La Maza, Poppy Pu, Jack Rielly, Yolanda Sinaga, Antonio Valverde, Xingfei Wang, Nano Wu, and Gama Yangzong.
Printed in a limited edition of 97 copies
Softcover, 78 pages, covered saddle-stitch binding, 1-, 2-, and 3 color Risograph and 1-color laserprint, 7.25 × 10.10 inches

During the weekend, I bound Pride or what goeth before a fall by Toodleoo. Tood's pen is witty, smart and funny, with a good use of irony and humour. I miss her, we were friends for long, and we have the opportunity to meet each other when she travelled. We lost contact during the pandemic. That's why I want to have one of her stories on my bookshelf as a way to honour her.
Toodleoo has always been a lot of fun to read, and this story is no exception. In this one, Hermione Granger, considers herself an excellent evaluator of the character of others. Guided by a series of stereotypes, she decides that Snape is gay and wants to support him. Thus begins this amusing comedy of errors.
Summary:
When it came to reading people, Hermione Granger was almost always right. How did she miss the fact that Snape was gay?
The binding process: It took some time to bind, as I was rusty from being away from my tools for so long. I had to re made the cover a few times, but I'm happy with the result. The fic is very tongue in cheek and I wish to show that in the design. I didn't have any rainbow like stuff, so I chose a cheerful yellow book cloth. The title had a complicated an imbricated font (the one I for chapter titles), and screwed I up badly while weeding it, so I humbly restarted with a conservative and safer cover design.
Fonts:
Chapter titles: GluckMixer Font.
Text: Palatino Linotype family.
As always, this fic was bound for personal use and fandom heritage preservation in mind. You can read Toodleoo's fics for free at AO3 and Live Journal.

I decided to dip my toes into sci-fi for my short story class, and, uh, I guess I Knocked it Out of the Fucking Park, just nailed it, on writing an unsettling little piece about a kid.
I mean, my intent was sci-fi. I was writing about aliens on a spaceship. But people have interpreted it in a variety of other interesting ways. That’s besides the point.
So like. Cool. I now have a home run piece that I’m gonna look into publishing in, like, I dunno a magazine or smth. It’s only 3 pages in word. Cannot emphasize enough how all over this story people were.
So that was the first assignment.
What the hell do I do for my second assignment.
#mobbtalks#I um. didn’t expect this problem.#I was just gonna keep workshopping my first piece.#but Here We Are.#hm. mnmmm. do I. should I keep going with the scifi or like#do I wanna be the creepy sci fi guy#not as in I am a creep but as in the raving reviews were ‘horrifying’ ‘creeped me the hell out’ ‘you’re afraid of spiders and you wrote THAT#‘when I read the first line I was like No you need to Earn a line like that. by page three you had earned it’ (the first line is unsettling)#I’m not sharing bc. publishing(???) but like yeah no yeah no yeah#‘the way you described (moment) really physically put me there in the action. I did not want to be there. you did great’#this feels like a lot of pressure#over what is probably going to amount to nothing. anyway

while im looking thru my old unfinished art, happy pride month to my two gay kitties from the warriors oc fanfic i was writing back in 2017-2018. featuring skystar's boyfriend who would show up later in the fic which i never got to write far enough to feature him. lol
#art is also from 2018 .#main reason i didnt finish it is. as you can probably see. the background was a huge massive landscape thing#which i. did not have the patience nor skill for#and i guess instead of scaling it back i just . like. gave up on it LOL#brot posts#wips#sometimes i still fantasize about picking that story back up and finishing it..................#also whenever i rarely mention this guy i always have to preface it. i made this oc back in middle school like a year before#dawn of the clans even started publishing at all#and so i named him skystar all on his own i did not know of any skystar in canon#i mean logically i should have known if theres a skyclan and all clan founders were [clan-prefix]star then like.#logically there would be a skystar#but i was using fanclans and i loved the name sky- as a prefix and i also was a stickler for name rules#which included not ever ever using a clan name as a prefix#so i had fanclans and skyclan was not one of them THEREFORE sky as a prefix was free fucking reign baby#and then. as one does. i made him leader#his warrior name was skystorm though which i still think is baller#anyway and his boyfriend (on the left) is named Bluebell#former kittypet who keeps his kittypet name#largely also bc i have a pet peeve where i hate two-syllable prefixes#but as i was trying to write the fic in 2018 years after when i first made these characters in middle school#i think i was trying to workshop bluebell's name cuz i wasnt entirely thrilled with it#bluebell as a whole is not very developed bc i really havent touched him much at all since middle school#since. yknow. i never got to the point in the story where he first appears during my 2018 fic.............. lol#hell where i left off in that fic skystar is still just skypaw

Here I was wondering how I was going to start finding work in this fastidious art industry only to receive a new commission straight into my inbox.
#joining the workshop has been the best decision I've made so far#the commission is an illustration for a local history magazine#also i trust the commissioner 100% bc he is friend's with the workshop teachers and he is a reputable local publisher#so i know I'm not getting scammed#me.txt

Bodhi felt a pang in her chest that reverberated from her heart to her stomach. She slipped her hand into Tien’s as a form of reassurance, but also a sort of thanks. No one had stopped to worry about how another war would affect her, which was fine. She didn’t expect them to. But it was nice to know that someone was looking out for her.
“I’ll be okay,” she bolstered. “I’ve got you this time.”
Meet Tien and Bodhi from the novel I'm working on, drawn by the incredible @awildfrenchieart on instagram! I am way too excited to share them with everyone, and I hope you all love them as much as I do when I eventually publish their story. 💚

Screaming crying throwing up begging sobbing for transmasc/gnc TavxShadowheart fics i will give you real world money pL EAS E IM BEGGING YO-
Anon, it's wonderful that you thought to ask me this. I do genuinely appreciate that kinda faith in me! Thank you for that.
But I'm sorry, I'm just not convinced I'm the writer for what you want. Unless it was a very brief fic which feels... disingenuous.
There's a dearth of transmasc!Tav/Shadowheart fics out there though. It's even worse than the trans fem Tav/Shadowheart situation, and I'm sorry for that. I hope someone more suited to the task comes along and gives you everything you want!
I'm not in the market for a fanfic beta with sensitivity reading/editing experience at the moment either, which I would want for this.
I laughed at your joke at the end there, but to clarify in probably far too serious a tone: my fics will always be free and I can't see myself accepting money for fannish writing out of an abundance of caution. No shade at all to those that do commissions or set up ko-fi/Patreon and so on, I wish all y'all a happy and comfortable life in the dystopian nightmare we're forced to live in and all proles (especially artists & writers rn) deserve to be compensated for our labor.
#hey you can ask me things!#I need to stop using y'all's asks to soapbox so farewell to 2k words of ramble lmao#tl;dr - I don't want to do commissions because even at workshops I *paid* to be at I couldn't stay on topic for short stories lmfao#I also know that I'd alienate more people than I'd entice as my niche is incredibly... well niche lol#I don't write or even really read longfics either (I save both for published novels)#and I don't want to run the risk of reports from the same folks that occasionally nuke my inbox with nasty shit#even a ko-fi isn't worth the potential headache

also relevant to my last rb but tbh don’t post literal numerical ratings of fics on your fic rec blog either. like. i also have a tumblr account and can see your post when you put the fic title and my fucking name. i don’t care if you didn’t think my fic was groundbreaking or w/e but if you’re saying hey welcome to my rec blog this fic by eurydicees was a 7.5! i think i should have the right to be a little upset with you
#actual posts i have seen about me!#i did not ask to be reviewed by you! i do not care for you critique! i didn’t ask for it! if i wanted to workshop a fic i would say so!#like why are you as a rec blog telling people to read my fic that’s a 7.5 out of 10 stars.#tbh i think about that post a lot. probably every time i publish sakuatsu. god. whatever.#like it’s literally fine and not a huge deal but also…..can u not.
