Yes it's March and I'm still at the cottage, but I at least you're all still here with me.

Who else has been reading Hollanov fics like there's no tomorrow? Do you love the WAG Ilya tag as much as I do? If so, this anthology is for you!

Featuring 10 fics, 9 with the Montreal WAGs plus a bonus of when he's texting the Montreal team. (Fics listed and linked below)

HUGE THANK YOU to @mina-logan for letting me use they're perfect art for the cover and endpages!! I can't wait to use the Shane version for the Boston Edition whenever I get around to finishing that.

This anthology was actually fun? to typeset? I love learning how to do new things and I can now say with confidence that I know how to typeset text messages, I used Affinity to typeset.

Now Entering Incognito Mode! fanbind

@travelingneuritis was kind enough to give me permission to bind Now Entering Incognito Mode! for the Renegade Bindery Exchange 2025. I loved getting to work on this, typesetting to include the beautiful illustrations. I wanted the cover to be a little incognito as well, so I decided it shoudl be monochrome. As well, I have been wanting to embroider a cover, so I decided to satin sitch the title and stitch a firefly (to reflect luo binghe's pseudonym) for the back cover.

All in all, this was a delight to bind, and the embroidered cover is definitely a labor of love! I'm very happy with how it came out.

i found this weird book in my room this morning….i dont remember buying it…..every time i try to read it i get distracted and forget i have it…can someone help me identify this book?

happy halloween!! i wasnt actually planning on posting this today but i managed to finish it just before the hallows eve struck!

for anyone still wondering this is a handmade bookbind of There Is No Antimemetics Division by qntm! this is just a hardcover rebind made from a paperback i bought online so no fancy typesetting here unfortunately. BUT i am happy with the cover design at least

closeup pics and thoughts abt my process below!

i wanted to keep the covers pretty minimalistic to make the book seem more mysterious and to draw more attention to the square window i cut out of the cover boards. fun fact, that square is supposed to represent SCP-055! theres only so much i can do to represent something indescribable, but its not round, so at least i have that

originally i was planning on making the text along the spine white so it would have a sort of disappearing effect against the white fabric, but it didnt really work out so i printed just the shadow of the text instead for a there-not-there look

something i really wanted to try while making this was to paint the edges of the textblock black. i think it came out nicely! it looks neat contrasted to the white cover :p

now the ENDPAPERS!! i had actually imagined the design for these way before anything else. i tried to go for a sort of fractal pattern of fingers like the monster from Fresh Hell. i quite like it in combination with the window on the front cover :3

okay thats all thx for coming with me on my journey ^_^
