Books in bulk
A5, black and white printed copies of my book Onwards, about an army of girls fighting with knives against shadowy bad guys. The original books are colour and hard bound, but I wanted to make a version that would be more economical to sell. They're for sale at my etsy: http://www.kayeblegvad.etsy.com.
Spent all day making 20 of these. Sore hands, stiff wrists. Satisfying to pile 'em up though.
Hi Kaye,
ReplyDeleteI bought an Arctic Weasel(which i love!)from you last year before I moved back to Oz. I would love to buy one of these books. Let me know when they are for sale!
Aha! They are now for sale on etsy: http://www.kayeblegvad.etsy.com
ReplyDeleteI hope the arctic weasel is doing well!
Hi! I went to see the degree show yesterday and looked through this book (I will be buying it from Etsy shortly) but also looked through another and wondered if you have previously made this into a book for general sale or if you ever plan to?
ReplyDeleteI haven't made copies of the other book to sell yet - I've not found a way to produce it economically enough to sell at a reasonable price, because it's so much fatter than this book! Hopefully one day though.
ReplyDeletereally nice book. especially that dormitory illo with the bunk beds.
ReplyDeletei like your style
can you tell me how you made these? did you print them yourself and if you did, what kind of printer did you use? and how did you bind them?
