It is nice! It's a diverting hobby with a pleasantly tangible outcome, and I've also found that the impetus to "finish" the craft by reading the actual book helps me overcome a screen-driven need for distraction that's been bothering me for a while now. So, I started answering these apparently simple questions and giving an overview of how I make books, and realized at just over 2500 words that what I really need to write here is a blog post. I need to take some pictures, too; a lot of the processes involved will be much easier to explain that way. I actually printed off sheets for a book block earlier this morning, so that should make for a good opportunity to walk through the whole process complete with illustrations. It'll take a while to finish, especially since there's an enforced day-or-so-long pause while the binding glue dries; that said, I don't really have anything else pressing to do on this Sunday afternoon, so I suppose at the very least I should be able to produce a Part I in the next day or so. I'll link it here once it's done!
