I wish I could accurately describe you how absolutely WILD that is. 288 days ago I made my first book. 2 weeks later I had a partnership with an amazing publishing house. 1 week later I had 250 books to make. Today I've produced 150 books and that time includes getting my own hides produced on an other continent. Idk if it's obvious, but that is a *crazy* timeline. This shit doesn't happen. People don't become professional bookbinders at proto industrial scale in less than a year. Yeah sure, I'm lucky. In so many ways I am lucky. But man did I use that luck well.
