Ok, I officially have a blog and I am going to make a point to write in it weekly if not more often. I invite all comments and posts related to book design, book typesetting, typography and anything you want to share about your book publishing experiences and love of books.
Let me start by saying that I fell in love with books before the age of four. I remember this because you had to be four years old to get your first Library card in the little town I grew up in back in NY state. I remember waiting very IMpatiently for my fourth Birthday to arrive so I could run down to the Library, present my Birth Certificate and get my very own Library card.
What a proud day that was! I proceeded to try and work my way through the entire bottom floor of the Library - children's and young adult reader books and darn near got through it. I remember slowing wayyyyyyy down when I got to the section of Plays - particularly Shakespeare - not exactly fast or easy reading for a young girl!
To this day, books are friends of mine -- I own quite a lot of them and absolutely LOVE what I do - designing and typesetting beautiful books for all of my clients.
