A Busy Week

It's been a busy week here in the Ghostwood Press office (well bedroom) as we've been frantically getting all our books together for Handmade & Bound this Sunday. We're nearly there now only 1 book left to print and some trimming and binding to do. Will probably do a post tomorrow showing off all the finished books, but for now here's a couple of snapshots and a little preview of our flyers (above) that you can pick up for absolutely nothing on Sunday, they're made from the many many mistake's that have happened during the printing process, we don't waste anything here.

 Here's Kathryn making our tablecloth with a sexy wood pattern and her morrisey lino print, both of which will be with us on Sunday.

And here's steph numbering her book after a long and confusing printing process.

Two New Contributors

It's really great for us to be able to announce that we have two new contributing artists! They're both doing a book each that should be ready by Handmade & Bound next week so let me introduce you to Ashley Wiltshire & Stephanie Bickford-Smith.
Ashley Wiltshire is a Graphic Design student at Kingston and his book Chimps on Speed is a really energetic book of very great and expressive drawings of chimps.
Stephanie is also a Graphic Design student at Kingston and her book Stains is an obsessive observation of stains, drawn through a magnifying glass with exceptional detail.
