MY FIRST BIND ❤️

Something a little different...

I dived into bookbinding recently, and I love it!!

This is my first proper bind, and I'm so proud and happy with the outcome.

It's Crimson Rivers by Zeppazariel on Ao3 ❤️

I needed to get creative with the cover design because I have no cricut machine or this fancy foil to make a real cover and back design....

Well, things got messy, and my room looked like 'the arena' for some days, but it was worth it!!

Let me know what you think 💌

Maybe it’s because the shower’s one of the only places my mind has the quiet to really think? When I’m not in the shower I’m always being asked questions by my husband or my kids or I’m doing something or scrolling somewhere or working or just doing something.

But in the shower is where the magic happens; where the answers to the questions about where the story’s going just reveal themselves… all while I’m lathering my hair up with shampoo. And I think it’s pretty funny.

So creative friends - whether you draw, write stories, craft poetry or anything else - do you have a place like this? Some kind of ritual or place that opens up the mind and allows you to be truly creative?
