Why is it that even though I'm a book person, I still find it hard to make time for leisure reading? Schoolwork gets in the way, of course, and I also happen to have a bazillion other projects going on (Riverglen Press does have to do with books, ...
It's done! Translating Scripture is back from the press and I'm pretty impressed with the result -- it's just like it's supposed to look. Phew! :) It's crazy to see the months of work in InDesign come to fruition in a real, physical book I can ...
I've got to get to bed so this'll be short, but I started reading War and Peace a couple of days ago (I've read the first two chapters so far). Good stuff. I'm sure it'll be even better once I get into the story, but I'm already liking ...
As for Riverglen Press, things are coming along slowly but surely. I'm deciding what font to use for the body text for my Riverglen Classics -- probably Garamond Premier Pro or Minion Pro, I think. The main thing now is to learn enough Perl that I can process ...

I intended to do homework today, but the Plan of Salvation cards were begging me to create a website home for them, so I did that, at Riverglen Press. I have 21 languages up so far, with a few more in the works. Now I just need ...
The calligraphy bug bit me today. It happened when I saw the back of a greeting card -- the name of the press was styled in some kind of chancery cursive, and it looked really good. Hand-lettering would give a nice feel to my Riverglen books (the title ...
Late last night I was having trouble falling asleep (probably because of the chocolate I ate ten minutes before ~sigh~), so I figured I'd try reading a math book and hopefully that would put me to sleep. Half an hour later, The Nature and Power of Mathematics had me ...
