Pics

Took some photos of the old Poetikas and photoshopped them for fun. Thinking that it might be cool to see a bit of colour on them. I could never afford to put in colour, except maybe if I get some substantial amount of dough to print a proper cover. Maybe I should try and look for funding somewhere. Hmm...

Anyway, work on putting the collection of old Poetikas is progressing, albeit slowly. I still can't make up my mind how to put it all together. I think I'll do a completely new layout. That'll be something fun to do - and also resolves some issues with layout design. Actually... maybe I should ask for help. Will post more updates soon.

Meanwhile, I've been reading novels again, after a three year bout of non-fiction. I just finished reading Shirley Jackson's We Have Always Lived In The Castle and Angela Carter's Nights At The Circus. Wonderful writing from the two dames, an absolute thrill, both unputdownable. Right now I've started on Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. It's a thousand pages thick! I shall try my best.

Yeah. Colour... LOL. That would be something. I have no idea how much it would cost. Probably two or three times more than what my current budget would allow.
