Last night, I finally got my physical copies of my newest book in, and wow, it came out amazingly!
I wasn’t quite sure how it was going to come out, since I was publishing it through a new distributor, I had created it in Photoshop (don’t do this at home, kids: it was dumb), and I was sort of flying blind when it came to paper options. But I clearly picked well, because when I opened the box and laid my hands on it, I was amazed at what came back!
It’s only 24 pages, but it’s full color, printed on a solid stock, and feels a lot like a paperback, even if it’s saddle-stitched instead of perfect bound.
The process of creating the interior using hand-drawn line art was fascinating; working in pencils, then in ink, and then converting it all into vectors through scanning and creating the document was a lot of work, but the end result? I couldn’t ask for a better final copy.
If you’re interested, the only place to get it is through The Magical Druid; it’s not going to be on Amazon or any other retailer. It’s just one of those things that’s created by us and for us.
Or, you can get a digital download by either becoming a Book & Article Pass tier patron ($15/month), or you can buy the post that I posted the .pdf version on.
