I'm leaving a little post for all future thesis printers, so when you are working on your thesis, and if you feel the way I am about to describe, you won't feel alone. Okay, you ready?
Here is the truth: when you finally start printing your thesis, you are already over it. You don't like it. You want to throw it out the window. You want to work on something new and exciting. But instead, you have to print it, for days.
But! it'll be okay. In the end, you will regain your love for it, and feel happy and proud.

Beat
Down in the mill--the cold is coming through the slats in the door--beating bluejeans for papermaking tomorrow. It has been awhile since I've been down here alone. It's very nice. Now to start hitting the fiber strongly!

The Fifth Floor: A Hip Destination
On Monday, February 2nd, I (Emily) will be bringing my New College Book Arts class to the fifth floor to check out the scene. On the schedule so far: perusing the fifth floor gallery (currently featuring the complex, colorful, conceptual concoctions of Sarah Bryant), and tours of the bindery and type shop. If any of you talented peeps are available to show some of your work to a group of eager UA undergrads, I (and they) would appreciate it a lot! And if anyone's printing at that time, maybe you won't mind if we stand around and gawk at you for a little while...
The tour will begin at 11, and will last as long as it takes.
P.S. This blog is a great idea. Thanks to the Printing II kids for setting it up!

New Blog!
The MFA Program in Book Arts at the University of Alabama is home to book artists of many unique backgrounds, areas of expertise, and a wide array of talent. The current Printing II students decided to create a space online where the Book Arts students could post updates on the daily joys (and struggles) of the time spent on the fifth floor of Gorgas Library. This is a place to document projects, adventures, tears wept over the SP-20, and every well-executed rainbow roll. Feel free to post pictures, announcements, events, and type shop daily happenings-- and we definitely don't mind recipes.
