Behold my haul of beautifully marbled papers by @renato-crepaldi​
Getting them was a bit of an adventure, because I knew most of them sell out insanely fast! So I looked up when the date would change to the release date in Brazil (in case it was an automatised release on the shop) and what time that is in my timezone. Did you know Brazil has three time zones? Neither did I. Then I checked the usual posting time (to see if I was save to sleep XD) and lurked for the goods to come online for sale (checking every half hour or so). 
So maybe that was a bit excessive, but I got all the papers I wanted! I have no shame or regrets about this. And look at the details (below the cut):

I admit the packaging gave me great joy as well. The papers came securely packed in a sturdy role of plastic taped shut, wrapped in paper, that wrapping taped shut again and with no less than 44 stamps. (It also gave the mail lady great joy to hand it over XD)

I had a blast with this project, @sorrelchestnut's series everybody wants to be a cat! Post-apocalyptic spycraft in the 1950s-flavoured 2280s has never looked so good.
Tumblr media
Of course I'm unreasonably fond of the title page cat, look at it :3

Thank you to both @needlesslycryptic and @rayeliann for permission to include their wonderful art!

So it's been a while since i posted any books - mostly because i've been hiding my progress like a little sneak.
I just finished this bind last night of The Desert Storm by @blue-sunshine-mauve-morning, or really it's volume 1 out of like ??? 15, maybe. Please take whatever i say with a pinch of salt (I have had 0 sleep for more than 24 hours, and that tends to make me a little very sleep-deprivation drunk a.k.a. unhinged). Okay, on to thoughts! The Desert Storm was foisted onto me by @celestial-sphere-press who told me under no uncertain terms that I WOULD FUCKING LOVE THIS SHIT. Well, I did. This more than 1 million word epic about Ben Fuckin' Kenobi is pretty much god-tier fanfiction. It reads like a goddamn novel. I can never think of canon again without thinking that this good shit should be canon. I read it and then consumed half of it within a week, and I have zero regrets. @blue-sunshine-mauve-morning, i absolutely love you and love your writing. It is the best thing since sliced bread. It is better than sliced bread.
I also had the benefit of @celestial-sphere-press saying, hey would you want to use the typeset? MY GOD, i am grateful. I love this fic, i would have typeset it if it hadn't been typeset but Des did such a beautiful job that i am absolutely in awe and thankful that she and the author allowed others to use it. Look at it - it's so beautiful. I only had to think hey, i just gotta design the cover and et cetera and so the book happened.
Please also check out @celestial-sphere-press 's amazing post here and here, who is the only person i know who's started and is almost complete in fanbinding this epic, and is also making an author a copy of the entire series.
Some stats, if you will.
96215 words || 380 pages
Title font: Ghaomiec
I took some inspiration from starblight bindery's lovely desert scape as well as this amazing cover of Dune which i own. I love that the landscape emanates Dune vibes while being oh so Tattooine - just sand and heat, relentless loneliness and melancholy. This fic centres around Obi-Wan Infinite Sadness Kenobi so it needed SAD VIBES TM, which i tried to deliver in desolate landscape form.
Also thank the heavens for Renegade members, who in a masterful stroke of Group Buy Saves Money, managed to source extra-out-of-production colours of Colibri and help a fair number of us get really cool limited edition versions of bookcloth. I am now a proud owner of a lorge stash of Duo and Colibri of which i am now sitting on like a shifty dragon with a hoarding problem. Good luck getting your bookcloth now, Folio Society, ha ha (gloating)! This particular bookcloth is Colibri Copper which has been wholly stashed for The Desert Storm series. I am leaning on transitioning to Malachite for Rise and Fall when I get to it.
The front cover design was done with a stock image and converted to a PNG, which i then fiddled with and did some HTV magic with. It was remarkably easier to weed than expected. I tried something new and ironed the design on the naked bookcloth first before gluing it to the boards, which was a new challenge in making sure everything was aligned.
Endpapers are marbled endpapers (Renato Crepaldi) which I got from Hollanders, which perfectly fit the colour scheme of the bind. The only hiccup was as I was cutting, I realized the sheet was running in the opposite direction of his usual papers and half the size, and only yielded 3 A5 size endpapers and so my heart went noooooooooo. oh well. i guess i will use it for quartos.
Endbands are my favourite - silk in 3 colours in the french doublecore style (as i was binding this i did not have the mental capacity to handle the difficulty of 4 strands). the truth is i usually only can do 4 when I have higher brain function and am willing to spend 80% of my time unraveling it from getting tangled.
I also forgot to mention I had mild fuck-ups, I got glue on the front endpaper which I had to hastily remove with wet cloth, and the back square is preposterously bad but I'm ignoring it for now.
Anyway, i've actually managed to complete a few other binds which have not been mentioned here as they've all been gifts/ surprises or event books in some form. I am SO EXCITED, also because I am travelling in the latter half of July to San Diego and L.A. and I get to meet some bookbinding friends in the flesh. Renegade is fucking amazing y'all. I am ready to embrace these crazy lads who have enabled me for the last 1 year, even when i'm the solitary (1) weirdo from my country of origin in the server. Also... potentially bookbinding trip early next year??? I am enthused.

Fanbinding: The Pen is Mightier by shamelesscooper
Tumblr media
Mobei-Jun realizes with increasing clarity that he wants to serve Shang Qinghua. Shang Qinghua does NOT pick up on it.
Another meet-up bind, as a gift to @rhipidurafan! "The Pen is Mightier" is a Scum Villian moshang fanfic that reverses some of the power dynamics. I got some help from a friend since I'm less well read for this particular ship, but I found the fic very cute.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I decided to test fate a bit on this bind by rounding and backing an A6-sized book that was only 190-ish pages, whoops. But success favored me!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I also gave my first go at polished graphite edges, which I think turned out very well! This book has the graphite on a three sides, including the rounded fore edge. Endpapers are from Renato Crepaldi, which I also used to do the marbled paper inlay on the pen for the cover. (This was also my first time doing an inlay with this particular method, rather than doing a full cutout).

Save the Date by @mallstars
In the twelve years after the war, Harry attends sixteen weddings. As friends and acquaintances vow their lives to one another, he watches quietly from the sidelines. Step by step, Harry pieces himself back together, builds a life from the wreckage of his past and falls, slowly and thoroughly, for Draco Malfoy. A story told in sixteen parts, of patient and transformative love, of queerness, of reaching out and holding on. Featuring plenty of pining, Gilderoy Lockhart getting married in a fever dream of glitter and product placement, and Rita Skeeter spitting a steady stream of venom at Harry and Draco's every move.
I was so ecstatic when @eevans22 sent me this absolutely gorgeous typeset of Save the Date by mallstars, as this is the final mallstars fic that I haven't read yet (bar now their two-days old Dronarry which you bet I can't wait to get my grubby little hands on) and the idea of reading it in HARDCOVER form was a dream too lovely to resist.
In terms of design, I wanted something elegant, hopeful, and clean to reflect eevans' typeset and mallstars' gorgeous prose. I matched an embroidered/beaded spine with one of my favorite of the Duo bookcloths: FLIEDER, which photographs terribly, but just believe me that it's a gorgeous silver/lilac/light pink, and matched it with our lord & savior, Renato Crepaldi endpapers.
Tumblr media
(Sorry for the repeat photo)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I also hand-dyed linen thread chartreuse to fit the springtime/hopeful vibes & matched that to the endbands :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I also am slowly, but surely improving with my construction, including the FLAT LAY, which has eluded me.
Tumblr media
And them some typeset details from eevans, because it's so gorgeous :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I am devouring this fic whole as we speak and loving it so so so much! mallstars, thank you for writing such amazing work, and eevan, for the lovely typeset! this was my first blind bind, and it was actually a super fun experience that i would absolutely repeat again for fics i know i will love :)

Bookbinding of L'Ombre de ton ombre by windfallswest, Dec 2023.
L'ombre de ton ombre (Fantastic Beasts, Percival Graves x Credence Barebone) is another of my favorite Fantastic Beasts fanfics. It is a novel-length work that deals sensitively with the characters' experiences of grief, depression, and healing. The story has a strong visual element, with the setting and landscape playing a prominent role in the story: the landscape is beautiful and isolated, which fits appropriately parallels the characters' slow process of learning how to live again and appreciate beauty, while emphasizing the difference between being isolated in your struggles and being companionably alone with someone. Treating mental illness is often a long haul, and the structure and resolution of this story addresses that fact with a balance of frankness and optimism.
About this project under the cut.
The gorgeous endpapers are marbled paper by Brazilian artist @renato-crepaldi. Since the landscape is important to the story, I specifically wanted endpapers that reminded me of the Australian badlands. I literally looked for months until I saw this paper before finishing the book. I was so pleased with this!
I'm honestly not entirely convinced by the pinkish tone of the cover, but I made this book to be part of a set of four, and I do think it matches nicely with the others in the set (here's another one of the four).
The frontispiece art is an edited version of J.J. Audubon's illustration of gyrfalcons. Yes, bird guy Audubon. I love this falcon illustration and falcons play a symbolic role in the text, so it was a great excuse!
Materials: Textblock is archival paper, laser printed text, marbled endpapers, with linen and beeswax stitching, reinforced with cotton cheesecloth as mull. Sewn endbands are cotton embroidery floss. Covers are Italian rayon bookcloth (spine) and hand-dyed cotton batik backed with handmade wood pulp paper (ink-like cover pattern). Cover lettering is machine-cut metallic heat transfer vinyl. The case is constructed of archival bookboard, handmade wood-paper, cotton rag paper, and PVA craft glue.

Diário da quarentena: repórter relata dias trancado em hotel do Catar à espera do Mundial
Tumblr media
Com segurança no corredor e refeições no quarto, equipe da Globo passa sete dias em isolamento antes de poder circular pelo país na cobertura do Palmeiras Repórter mostra bastidores da chegada ao Catar e a rotina de quarentena no quarto do hotel Ter a chance de trabalhar in loco em um Mundial de Clubes é uma das melhores e mais satisfatórias experiências na vida de um jornalista. A notícia sobre a cobertura no Catar obviamente me trouxe muita felicidade e a sensação de realização. Porém, ao mesmo tempo eu imaginava (e também fui informado) que, por conta da pandemia do coronavírus, não seria uma viagem normal. Regras, restrições, quarentena obrigatória no país, protocolos, exames, incertezas… Os dias que antecederam o voo confirmaram exatamente isso. Mais notícias do Palmeiras: + Jogos no Catar serão em estádio verde e branco + Weverton pede para Palmeiras “ir com calma” no Mundial + Breno Lopes fica fora da lista do Mundial de Clubes Demora para a chegada do visto, teste de Covid no mesmo dia do voo (e o medo de estar com o vírus?), troca de documentos, permissões, enfim… Uma correria, mas que no fim deu tudo certo, graças ao trabalho das pessoas responsáveis pela logística. Com tudo resolvido, eu, os repórteres André Hernan e Renato Peters e o repórter cinematográfico Jonathan Santos estávamos prontos para embarcar. A viagem e a entrada no Catar Hora de viajar. E os protocolos começam já no aeroporto de Guarulhos. Só foi permitido fazer check-in apresentando o resultado negativo de Covid-19 (com 48h de validade), a permissão especial de entrada no país, o visto e o comprovante de reserva do hotel da quarentena (falo sobre ela mais à frente) oficializado pelo governo do Catar. Sem isso, nem do Brasil sairíamos. Avião que levou equipe até o Catar Jonathan Santos Documentação válida, vamos para o voo. Mais ou menos 14 horas de viagem, sem nenhum problema. Protocolos normais, máscara o tempo todo no avião, muita cordialidade dos funcionários da companhia aérea… Por volta de 23h20, desembarcamos em Doha (guardem esse horário). Aí começou o primeiro “desafio”: passar por todas as barreiras e longas filas até poder sair do aeroporto. A primeira delas, talvez seja a mais curiosa. Antes mesmo de passar pela imigração, há um local no qual somos obrigados a comprar um chip de celular do Catar e instalar um aplicativo oficial do governo que controla nosso status de “liberdade”. Quando aparecer o status verde no aparelho, estamos livres para ir e vir. O amarelo significa que estamos em quarentena. Com a ajuda de um catari simpático, conseguimos fazer todo o processo após um longo tempo e seguimos. + Confira a tabela do Mundial de Clubes À frente, mais um balcão para mostrar documentos: teste negativo de Covid, permissão de entrada no país e a reserva do hotel da quarentena (talvez fosse o papel mais importante para eles). Isso se repetiu pelo menos mais três vezes. Filas, apresentação e conferência dos papéis. A impressão que ficou foi de que era impossível entrar sem que tudo estivesse 100% dentro da regulamentação local, de tão rígidos que foram. Pegamos as malas. Vamos embora? Não! “Volta ali e pega mais uma fila!”. Agora para obter um voucher que nos daria direito ao transporte para o hotel da quarentena. Isto feito, mais uma fila. Agora para pegar os táxis oficiais, dentro do esquema feito para quem teria que cumprir o isolamento. Depois de algumas horas, muitos protocolos e papéis apresentados, enfim conseguimos deixar o aeroporto de Doha. Movimento no aeroporto de Doha na chegada Fabricio Crepaldi Chegada ao hotel Após cerca de uns 20 minutos dentro do carro, chegamos ao nosso hotel para o isolamento obrigatório de sete dias. Começou a ficar curioso antes mesmo de entrar com o veículo, já que logo no portão o motorista avisou que eram pessoas para quarentena. Já mudou a rota, fomos desviados por uma entrada diferente, pela porta dos fundos do hotel, na garagem. Sem nenhum tipo de contato com os outros hóspedes. Ali mesmo fizemos o check-in e subimos ao quinto andar. Após uma pequena espera, fizemos uma “entrevista” e assinamos papéis no centro médico improvisado em um dos quartos do hotel. Uma moça simpática nos passou as informações de como funcionaria o nosso isolamento: sete dias trancados 100% dentro do quarto, sem poder sair, recebendo as refeições na porta, sem alguém para realizar a limpeza e sem contato com ninguém. Já esperávamos por isso, ok. Mas no fundo tínhamos a esperança de poder usar alguma área do hotel ou até mesmo ficarmos juntos no quarto em algum momento para conversar e até ver a final da Libertadores. Negativo. É isolamento real, sozinho. A quarentena no hotel Depois de todos esses processos listados acima, chegou a hora de enfim entrar no quarto. Já era por volta de 4h da manhã do dia 29 (lembrem-se do desembarque às 23h20 do dia 28). No corredor, hora de dar tchau para os companheiros: só nos veríamos daqui uma semana. Uma situação estranha, já que estamos em quartos no mesmo andar do hotel. Mas necessária. Quarto do hotel em Doha Fabricio Crepaldi A sensação de fazer essa quarentena é um pouco estranha. Por um lado, o hotel é ótimo e muito confortável. Temos todo o apoio necessário de alimentação, equipe médica se precisarmos, ótimas instalações e um quarto excelente. Mas algumas coisas fazem com que isso não seja uma experiência 100% agradável. A pior delas é o fato de as janelas do quarto não abrirem. Dessa forma, são sete dias respirando o mesmo ar, dentro do quarto, sem poder respirar um ar de fora. No máximo, ao abrir a porta do corredor, que obviamente também é fechado. Em alguns momentos houve aquela sensação de “sufocamento”. Isso é o que mais tem atrapalhado. No corredor, fica um segurança 24h por dia para impedir que a gente saia do quarto. Não é raro abrirmos a porta, ele ouvir e já vir conferir o que estava acontecendo. Faz parte do processo, ainda mais em um país tão preocupado com as questões sanitárias, mas é algo estranho para nós que temos a liberdade de ir e vir o tempo todo. Não podemos reclamar da prestatividade e simpatia dos funcionários do hotel. Sempre nos ajudam no que preciso. Em especial o Paul, um garoto de Uganda que apelidamos carinhosamente de “Patrick de Paula”, pela semelhança física com o jogador do Palmeiras. É ele quem toca a campainha do quarto três vezes ao dia para entregar as nossas refeições. Almoço desta quarta: pasta de berinjela e macarrão com beterraba e carne Fabricio Crepaldi Esse é um capítulo legal de explicar como funciona. No dia anterior olhamos pelo celular o cardápio com três opções de café da manhã, almoço e jantar e enviamos ao Paul as nossas escolhas, com o horário que desejávamos receber. Ele nos entrega em uma sacola, com todos os utensílios descartáveis. Quando acabamos, deixamos no corredor e alguém retira. A comida é boa e farta. O fato de podermos escolher já nos ajuda muito. Para todas as refeições há uma opção de menu completo mais tradicional do Catar e outras duas “internacionais”, com as quais estamos mais acostumados. Outra situação curiosa é com relação à vista do quarto. Quando cheguei, fiquei impressionado com a visão, o mar, belos prédios, céu azul… No segundo dia, é muito bonita. No terceiro, ela já se torna mais normal. Daí em diante, já não aguenta mais olhar para as mesmas coisas, sem ter opção de mudar. Faz parte do processo. Com uma boa internet, uma TV repleta de canais esportivos, com campeonatos do mundo todo passando, e também muito trabalho a fazer, os dias começaram a passar mais rápido. Também dá para fazer um exercício, arrumar o quarto, dar uma limpada… Nesta terça-feira, estamos no quinto dia. A expectativa é que a gente faça o teste de Covid-19 na quarta e sejamos liberados na quinta. Final da Libertadores em árabe… A final da Libertadores, às 23h (horário local) do sábado, foi um momento engraçado. O jogo que esperamos por tanto tempo para acompanhar tive de ver sozinho, dentro do quarto silencioso, com narração em árabe. Sem qualquer tipo de emoção. Nenhuma gritaria, fogos, comemoração… Tentamos que o segurança deixasse a gente assistir à partida juntos em dos quartos, até para gravar algum material sobre essa experiência. Não fomos permitidos. Cada um na sua. Os comentários sobre o jogo, que certamente existiriam, foram feitos por WhatsApp mesmo. Que falta faz uma janela aberta… Como estamos em quartos lado a lado, eu e o repórter cinematográfico Jonathan dos Santos temos ido à porta conversar diariamente. Ele na porta do quarto dele, eu na do meu, mas conseguimos nos ver e conversar. Parece pouco, mas tem sido algo que nos ajuda muito a aliviar um pouco. Os repórteres André Hernan e Renato Peters só veremos mesmo depois que sairmos, já que estão no fim do corredor. Se há alguma forma de definir isso que estamos vivendo, colocaria como uma experiência diferente e inusitada. Certamente nunca estive em algo assim e acredito que vai ser difícil vivenciar novamente. Está muito longe de ser ruim, pelo contrário. Mas também não é uma maravilha, como se estivesse curtindo férias no hotel de luxo em Doha. Uma janela que abrisse talvez aproximasse essa sensação. Como não temos, seguimos contando os dias para voltar a ter a nossa liberdade. Vista da janela do quarto do hotel, em Doha Fabricio Crepaldi

Remembrance by @blue-sunshine-mauve-morning
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I finished binding Remembrance by @blue-sunshine-mauve-morning, which is the next part of The Desert Storm Epic. This is currently volume 2 of a projected 14/15 volumes!
some stats:
97,852 words || 384 pages
Title font: Ghaomiec
i'm still using the lovely @celestial-sphere-press' beautiful typesets. Sticking with the current theme, i decided to do Coruscant this time, with the Jedi Temple front and centre. Egged on by Des, this design is something like 10 times more complicated and took an entire hour to weed. The bookcloth is Colibri Copper, while endpapers are @renato-crepaldi, whose papers i love. I finished the bind with gold and brown silk endbands in 3 colours. Am likely to vary it up a little with the next volume with a different bookcloth colour, just for kicks.
Next up, I do have one more FFWAD bind to complete, and once i'm done with that, my physical stack of textblocks will have decreased to 4 (SUCCESS) and i can let myself print more things. Am working on my list of author copies as usual, slowly but surely.
i'm also waiting on legal paper (in the right grain this time) very excitedly, because i want to make more legal quarto books.
