A vague layout for the book... I've been working towards this book as a 32 page children's book with the idea of submitting it to MacMillan children's book prize, but as the deadline got closer I realised I didn't need that extra pressure of submitting to this. I just want to make a book, I don't need to submit it to a competition to validate that.
I could self-publish through BLURB which I have used before. The quality of production there is really great and the books I have had printed have been really beautiful but they are expensive. An alternative could be AMAZON which is really cheap but I have never used them before and the quality I'm sure will be lacking in comparison.
Should I be printing myself? I don't really have the time and my intention for this brief was to illustrate a story not prove my bookbinding skills...
I am making a book because I want to TELL THIS STORY and MAKE THESE PICTURES! Getting it printed/published is just a finishing/distribution consideration. My focus has been on the CONTENT and the WORLD.
