A million little details

Blog fodder has been a bit sparse lately. Not much knitting. No stash enhancement. No trip to Rhinebeck. sigh

Especially for a first book: choosing a printer, buying a block of ISBN numbers, getting and testing an EAN barcode, figuring out if a Library of Congress Control Number or Cataloging-in-Publication data is necessary… okay, you get the idea; the list goes on.

Disregarding the dreary details, though, I do have one fun thing to share with y’all:
