As if I didn't have enough hobbys I found a new love - bookbinding! In theory it's perfectly paceable - each of these books took over a week to make, where an able bodied person would be able to do it in less than one evening. But all these little steps led to a tangible object! I used papers I marbled myself for these books.

I've now discovered the rabbithole that's fanbinding and I've gotten permission from various authors to bind their fics - can't wait!!!!
