Still Not Right!

My "book" just arrived from Blurb ... it is gorgeous, I'm delighted ... it is HUGE (21 x 28 cm)!

 

My mistake, though ... it is perfect-bound! Not suitable for writing in unless you're willing to "crack" the spine. I thought magazines were staple-bound ... guess I didn't read the description properly! Oh well, maybe someone will end up with this one gifted to them!

So, I'm going to try again ... making sure I order a spiral-bound (no staple-bound on offer) zine. Yes, there's a difference between a "zine" and a "magazine"! Live and learn!

 

This time the size will be somewhere between the previous two versions with regard to size ... the first one is 13 x 20 cm. Perhaps that is a good size for someone who's travelling ... but makes the photos quite small. 

 

What do you think? ... think? ... think?

 

Oddly, the medium-size spiral-bound zine will cost more than the large perfect-bound magazine to produce ... another factor to take into account then I decide what to go with, in the end.* 

 

Tara for now, back in a bit!

 

* Do you think I can't make my mind up because I'm procrastinating about approaching our local bookshop to sell it?! Nah, can't be!
