Okay, truth is we are making 102 because the book has an ISBN which means the National Archive requires two copies and it is sooooo much easier to make them two copies than to buy two copies because all the money you are making on the project is going to charity.
I am involved with Happy Leopard Chapbooks. Twice a year we create a limited edition book to sell for charity. Different charity each time. Mostly. And if you think making one book by hand is time consuming --- I must digress here to say that while I was spending the weekend with my mother I was also spending the weekend with my father, two people who courted in Latin. My father gave me the tid bit that manufacture, from the Latin, means to make by hand. So Ford, you ain't manufacturing those trucks. I just know you're not. Nor are any of the others, but this digression has gone on long enough --- you should try making 100, and two.If you are around, come on out for the launch, June 21st (ah summer, when the days are getting shorter) at 8pm, the Refinery 609 Dufferin, Saskatoon. There will be food.
