Insight! The best way to keep track of my projects is to simply check in on each one everyday — even if that means deferring work to the next day. I’m sure I read that in some productivity book many years ago, but it only made sense to me this morning when I was sketching out a very complicated system of spreadsheet pages and calendar notes.
I’ve added pages about the press and bookbinding classes at the of the page. I’ve changed the way I’ll be offering classes, but please feel free to contact me if the new system is unclear. Basically, I’ve decided to offer private classes by request.

This November you have two chances to learn Coptic Binding and just in time you make beautiful blank journals & sketchbooks for holiday gifts!
In my three hour class I teach a non-adhesive, exposed spine coptic binding that is suitable for all levels of bookbinders: complete newbies to experienced binders. I cover bookbinding basics, local suppliers, design issues, and share little tips I’ve learned along the way.
You can register online at ReForm School, but hurry – space is limited!
