recently i finished a class in 'editioning'--basically we made the same exact book 3 times, setting up workflow for consistency, etc. we also practiced rounding and backing and i got to know, quite thoroughly, that i hate rounding and backing. 😅

but i digress. i wanted to use the chance to do a lot of extra practicing, so i set up a series of binds that could be done in editions. this is the first.

the stories. i've always been a bit surprised that there isn't more procedural/romantic suspense AU in the captain swan fandom, but these are three that have really stuck with me: the difficult kind by @nowforruin, clear and present danger by ice_cube44, and these nights never seem to go to plan by @stophookingatmeswan

the bindings.

i had a lot of fun distilling a couple of elements to use across all three typesets, including the cuff-and-gun motifs and the exaggerated 'modern' antiqua titles to leave a little hint of the fairy tale vibe in the AUs.
