Bound a copy of Down and Out in Paris by Orwell. The design was heavily inspired by the old NRF paperbacks from France; seemed fitting for the topic and the period.

As someone who always carried a book everywhere in my hand, I'm a massive fan of the old school paperback size

Clive Barker gets it.

faroutmagazine.co.uk/hellraiser-c...
Noting Rowling’s vast financial success, Barker felt that Rowling’s newfound position of fame ought to exclude her from discussing trans rights. He added, “It really just seems redundant for a woman as successful, as validated in the world, as Ms Rowling, to be negative, to be disruptive if you will, to a very beaten up subculture. These are human beings. She has no right to opine, I think, upon the lives of human beings that she does not know.” “I feel very protective of people who are on the edge of our culture as gay people still are,” Barker continued. “And certainly transgender people are on the edge of our culture. And here you have one of the most successful people in the frigging world – Ms Rowling. Going after a very emotionally vulnerable portion of our culture. It just seems unnecessary and unfair.”

I guess this is my first foray into publishing. This was a fun project, a classic hardback library bind of a Sherlock Holmes short story, with my own typesetting and everything. Considering doing the whole collection now

@ns.nl dank voor her bericht dat ik ben het vergeten om in te checken op sloterdijk, waar het enige manier voor toegang is een toegangspoortje. En dan zeggen jullie dat ik een boetje krijgt als ik dit twee keer meer dit jaar doe. Jullie geven boetjes nu voor de falen van jullie tech?

I grew up on a diet of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark... I swear these vines covering a lamppost in Wroclaw, Poland are straight out of my childhood nightmares.
A lamppost covered in dark vines that resemble a creature with long hair bent over. When the light is on, it looks like the head/skull is glowing.

New design for the Royal Garden series. The silken cover now goes with a real silk spine, and it has been upgraded to a split board cover so it's now extra robust. Throw that thing in your bag, wave it around by the pages: it can take it!

Looks like my business Instagram and email were hacked. I can't recover one without the other, and apparently I can't provide enough information to prove I am the owner of the other.

Apologies to anyone who's received any annoying bot spam.

In my bid to go shiny, the only thing left to make shiny are the actual pages themselves.

I call this one Midas.

Another commission! This time the artist wanted her own work on the cover. I got these beautifully textured linen prints made, and pulled them over the cover boards. The inside is alternating watercolour, lined and bullet journaled paper. The result is super chunky and satisfying to hold #journaling

Something I learned from the market is that people are magpies, so I'm going to make more shiny. The way this one changes colour depending on the direction of light is stunning.

Perhaps we can stop being so parochial about Starmer's trip to Washington now. It was a failure. We are in a battle against fascism. And every decision we make is judged by whether it assisted or opposed it.
