One of the honest to god goals of this press is to make enough in book sales that we can justify buying a replica carnyx and blast it at maximum strength at all of our book launches
Oh no, I've found someone who makes awesome replicas of Bronze & Iron age stuff.
Including the Carnyx, which I'm obsessed with.
I already hear my wallet crying.

There's nothing quite like typesetting. Imagining how everything will look printed as you get the words down on the page... very satisfying.
