Bookbinding
I made some books today.
NaNo–Day 14
My word count is 25,108. And just because I am taking a watercolor class this month, my character’s random hobby is watercolor.
NaNo–Day 10
Today I was late to the Write-In at Grounds For Thought, but I got a raspberry hot chocolate anyway and worked on my novel. Now I have 19,837 words. And I even painted apples for my watercolor workshop with Merrill Rainey. Then I made apple cobbler.

Poems read: 1079/365 Poems written: 194/365 Short stories read: 303/365 Short stories written: 19/24 Submissions: 9/12 Videos made: 15/100 Sketches made: 567/365 Art pieces made: 69/52 I also had five poems accepted at Bukowski on Wry.
Book Workshop
I’ve made an accordion book before but never added a sewn signature. Today I also made a Turkish Map Fold Book and a Blizzard Book at the Art Supply Depo workshop.
Found Poetry Project
My found poetry project has a new home! I caved in and bought a scrapbook since I prefer doing cut out poetry on scrapbook paper.
Practicing for Art Class
Here are some examples of what I’ve been practicing for my art workshop. I used Prismacolor Markers and marker paper. If you’re in the Toledo area, check out the other workshops by Merrill Rainey.

Illustration Workshops
I haven’t taken “official” art classes since junior high, so I signed up for some illustration workshops. They will be taught by Merrill Rainey, and take place at Seed Coworking.
