One of the things I've found that I truly enjoy is the art of graphic layout. Figuring out how to place readable text, getting the fonts right, creating a nice, professional-looking product. Since I haven't found anybody who's willing to pay me to do these things - yet - I do it as a hobby. And because I like to share, you can see some of my print work as well.
The
Requiem of Katze Brenner, by Kat Templeton
This was my first real project using InDesign. The story itself is a piece
of Jihad fiction, and in my not terribly humble opinion one of the better
ones. I originally did this as a birthday present for the author (which
explains some of the oddities about the attribution and the foreword) but
decided that it's a nice enough design to warrant inclusion here.
The Jihad Universe 3.0
by the Jihad to Destroy Barney
One of my end goals for the JU3 campaign is to produce a perfect-bound copy
of the completed story, and then get it autographed by all the authors.
This is the result. Incomplete (but up to date with jihad.net).
Drunkard's Walk 2:
Robot's Rules of Order by Robert M. Schroeck
This one's a bit of an experiment. Having succeeded in PDFing my own work,
I decided to give a try at doing it to another long-form story. Bob's Drunkard's
Walk stories is a longtime favorite fanfic series, and I figured
what the hell. Since the author approved of the project, I'm going to put
it up here for public consumption. Incomplete (only up to Chapter 10).
I'm sure that eventually, I'll come up with some incredibly witty statement to put here. But for the moment, I haven't anything to say.
