Regardless of that, I’ve got this coming week planned out:

  • Monday to Wednesday: finish writing text for the Book of the Erinyes
  • Thursday (payday!): pay membership at Brighton Printmaking Centre and book use of the Letterpress machine
  • Saturday: buy the first batch of art paper for the pages of the book
  • The week after: start compositing the text at the Printmaking centre and start printing out the pages

If I can get all that done then I should have some results to post on this site very soon.

I’ve got most of the text for the Book of the Erinyes written (you can view it here) and sometime over August/September I will be compositing the text in old lead moveable type, then printing it out.

With regards to the artwork, I’ve already done a test set of photographs with my artistic partner-in-crime Alice Kemp (who will be taking the role of Megeara) to explore the initial concepts.  Hopefully we’ll be arranging the photoshoot itself one weekend this month.

Next come the other two Furies.  Abbie has agreed to model for Tisiphone (hopefully sometime late September), but I’m still looking for a model for Alecto.  If you’re interested and you’re in the South-East of England then let me know!
